Brainspotting is a therapeutic tool that locates the points in your visual field that help to assess unprocessed trauma. And a brain spot is a specific point in your visual field that is associated with a particular emotion or experience. This therapy style was discovered by David Grand, PhD, who discovered that where you look affects how you feel. And that it is the brain activity that organizes itself around that eye position. This form of therapy is effective with trauma-based situations and helping to heal anxiety, depression, and other behavioral conditions that are underlying. Brainspotting makes use of this natural brain function through the application of relevant eye positions by helping us to locate, focus, process, and release a wide range of emotional and body-based conditions.
