Why do some clients struggle to make progress and experience true healing in therapy?
As therapists, we’ve all faced this challenge: a client comes to us, week after week, sharing their pain and challenges. We help them explore their emotions, offer support, and practice coping strategies. Yet, progress often feels frustratingly slow.
The truth is that traditional talk therapy can sometimes lack the focus needed to address trauma quickly and effectively. We may find ourselves touching on various issues or symptoms without ever reaching the root of the problem.
While valuable, this approach can slow progress––clients might need months or even years before they find relief or achieve meaningful change, which frustrates both the client and therapist.
In contrast, highly technical therapies like EMDR provide a structured framework to trauma treatment. However, these defined steps may not always align with a client’s unique needs and experiences.
And when clients feel confined to a rigid process, this can overshadow, or even undermine the therapeutic relationship, which is a critical element for trauma healing.
As a result, we may be caught between approaches that seem either too broad or too inflexible…
So how can we integrate a focused, flexible trauma-informed approach that truly meets our clients’ needs?
Imagine having a tool that helps clients access deep-seated trauma more easily and precisely, opening new paths to healing that traditional methods might miss…
Brainspotting is an emerging therapeutic technique developed by Dr. David Grand after he observed that “where you look affects how you feel.”
By combining elements of talk therapy with somatic awareness, Brainspotting emphasizes the connection between emotions and physical sensations in the body.
The method helps clients access deep-seated trauma by focusing on eye positions that correlate with their emotional experiences––activating different areas of the brain through the eye positions, which helps to retrieve memories and emotion that may be stored in the subconscious.
By bringing these feelings to the forefront, clients can process their emotions and stay present with their feelings without becoming overwhelmed.
This powerful tool is highly effective for treating complex issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, dissociative disorders, chronic pain, and even performance anxiety—and can be easily integrated with any therapeutic modality, making it a versatile tool for your practice.
Join our free training to learn how to incorporate Brainspotting into your work and better support clients on their healing journeys.

What therapists say about Brainspotting…
“Brainspotting has transformed the way I work with most of my clients.
It has changed my views about talking therapies and accessing inner processes without the need for a lot of dialogue.”
––Sarah
“Before I began learning about Brainspotting, I felt entrenched in the medical model. I was trying to free myself from the constraints of linear thinking about therapy.
Now I have a framework to deeply attune, to be with uncertainty and constant evidence of the healing process of Brainspotting.
I was not expecting the fulfillment from this radical change nor was I expecting my own healing.”
––Clare
“Brainspotting has enabled me to help so many clients with differing issues.
It truly is a fantastic tool to have in your toolbox. Brainspotting enables me to really start the healing process, freeing clients of trapped emotions and helping them start to process their traumas.
It is an integral part of the therapy I undertake and I absolutely love this modality!”
––Victoria
“I learned to trust the healing power of the human brain…
… and it helped me develop a new layer of presence that is so essential in trauma work.”
––Philip
