What To Expect From Brainspotting Trauma Therapy
Similarly to talk therapy, brainspotting can be a highly effective solution for helping you address the underlying trauma responsible for your anxiety or depression. During your online therapy session, you can expect to make progress in the following areas:
![Helping you process the trauma.png](https://static.mywebsites360.com/f573ea17309f485b8f0ea4f170cf94c3/i/c96ace7530c94721bb16064024b75c5d/1/4SoifmQp45JMgBnHgjPcx/Helping%20you%20process%20the%20trauma.png)
Helping you process the trauma:
After a traumatic experience, the brain can rewire itself in a way that makes it difficult to process the trauma. As a result, you can continue to carry your trauma with you, affecting your quality of life. Brainspotting works with eye positions, or brainspots, to identify where the problems are held in the brain, including depression, anxiety, etc. By locating these areas, your brain can process your trauma from the inside out.

Improving physical and mental regulation:
Brainspotting provides the therapist access to your body and brain processes. The purpose is to bypass the conscious thinking of the neocortex in order to access the embedded, emotional parts of the subcortex.

Identifying the original trauma:
Brainspotting lets you dive deeper into your subconscious mind. Many traumas appear impossible to solve because they are locked away outside your rational brain. As a result, while you experience symptoms of your trauma, your body doesn’t allow you to get to the core of it. Brainspotting can help pinpoint where the trauma is kept.

Reducing painful repetitive feelings or patterns:
Brainspotting can be incorporated into your treatment to enhance the benefits of your trauma therapy. Many patients use brainspotting to shift painful feelings and patterns in a more positive direction.

Why Brainspotting Works
Brainspotting is a variation of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) that focuses on identifying and releasing neurophysiological blocks within the body. It was developed in 2003 by David Grand, Ph. D., and research shows that it can be incredibly effective at helping patients move past the limitations of their trauma.
Brainspotting works by harnessing the body’s natural self-healing and self-scanning ability through the active nervous system. By targeting and accessing the emotional and physical sensations associated with past traumas, the brain can locate the source of the blockage and provide a helpful foundation for releasing it.
A successful brainspotting session can leave you feeling calmer and more grounded, unlocking your brain and body’s innate resilience. As such, brainspotting is one of the most powerful and popular therapy options we offer at Inward Healing Therapy.

What Types Of Events Are Most Likely To Lead To Trauma?
Trauma can arise in a variety of situations, including one-time events, multiple traumatic situations, or even because of ongoing circumstances. It can result from any event that causes emotional, physical, or psychological harm.
Common causes of trauma include redundancy (or being fired from a job), sexual abuse, intimate partner violence, homelessness, bullying, racism, terrorism, war, divorces, being the victim of a crime, being imprisoned, or experiencing a life-threatening event. Other common causes include neglect, natural disaster, injury, and accidents.
However, this list is not exhaustive. All cases of trauma are unique, and you may be experiencing trauma even if you haven’t experienced a common cause. By meeting with one of our online therapists in California, you can find out if trauma is at the core of your actions and emotions, and what steps you can take to overcome it.
