If you’ve ever noticed that talking about your problems doesn't necessarily help you FEEL better about them… you might have experienced the limitations of talk therapy.
In this episode, I explain how Brainspotting - a healing modality that works directly with the deep brain & nervous system - can fill in the gaps.
We’ll cover:
00:26 What is Brainspotting & how does it work?
05:23 What’s the difference between talk therapy & Brainspotting? (& how they can complement each other)
08:05 What does a Brainspotting session look & feel like?
12:14 The power of nervous system connection & co-regulation - why Brainspotting isn’t just a series of steps, but rather a relational process
14:47 The original Brainspotting: an ancient & intuitive practice?
Whether you’re exploring Brainspotting therapy for yourself, or you’re a practitioner considering getting trained in this modality, this episode breaks it all down in simple language - acknowledging both the scientific & spiritual side of healing.
