Brainspotting Therapy for Trauma, ADHD, & Emotional Healing
Where You Look Affects How You Feel
Some things can't be reached in a 55-minute conversation. Trauma stored in the body, patterns that surface in relationships, the exhaustion of a nervous system that never fully settles, these need more than insight. Brainspotting works differently. It goes beneath the surface, into the brain-body connection, to access and process what talk therapy alone can't reach.
I am trained through Brainspotting Level IV and integrate it into individual therapy, couples work, and intensive sessions.
What is Brainspotting?
Brainspotting is a neuro-somatic therapy developed by Dr. David Grand. It works by identifying specific eye positions — called brainspots — that correspond to activated neural pathways where unresolved emotional material is stored. By holding attention on these spots with bilateral sound and relational attunement, the nervous system begins to unwind stored tension, protective patterns, and trauma.
Extended Time, Deeper work, and Relaxed vibe
3-6 hour sessions allow your nervous system to fully settle and access deeper layers of healing. No more feeling cut off just as you're getting started.
Faster Integration
Brainspotting bypasses executive functioning challenges by working directly with your subcortical brain, leading to faster insights and behavioral changes.
Focused Attention
Contrary to concerns about attention span, clients often report time flying by as they become deeply absorbed in the healing process.

What Brainspotting Can Help With
Trauma & PTSD
Brainspotting reaches trauma stored in the body that verbal processing often can't access childhood wounds; relational trauma; single-incident trauma; and complex PTSD.
ADHD & Nervous System Dysregulation
For ADHD brains, Brainspotting bypasses executive functioning challenges by working directly with the subcortical brain, supporting regulation, focus, and emotional steadiness.
Attachment Wounds & Relationship Patterns
Old relational wounds show up in present relationships. Brainspotting helps process the underlying patterns, fear of abandonment, shutdown, reactivity, at the nervous system level.
Grief & Loss
Whether grieving a person, a relationship, or a version of yourself, Brainspotting creates space for the body to process what the mind is still trying to make sense of.
Anxiety & Emotional Overwhelm
For anxiety rooted in stored trauma or chronic stress, Brainspotting addresses the source rather than just managing symptoms.
Burnout & Chronic Stress
Deep exhaustion that rest alone hasn't touched often lives in the nervous system. Brainspotting supports genuine restoration, not just temporary relief.
Break free from executive functioning struggles, attachment wounds, and relationship patterns that keep you stuck. Our intensive sessions provide the deep, focused healing that traditional hourly therapy can't match.
What to Expect in a Brainspotting Session
Sessions are conducted via secure telehealth, or for intensives, in-person in Tempe, AZ. We begin with a brief check-in, then identify a brainspot using a pointer while bilateral sound plays softly through headphones. You follow your internal experience — thoughts, feelings, sensations, while I hold the relational space. Sessions are 55 minutes and can be integrated into your ongoing individual or couples therapy.
Brainspotting Intensives
For deeper, accelerated work, Brainspotting Intensives offer a sustained container — half-day, full-day, or two-day formats — that allows your nervous system to move through layers that short sessions rarely reach. Intensives are available online nationwide and in person in Tempe, AZ.
Format Duration Investment
Half Day 4 hours $895
Full Day 6 hours $1,455
Two Day 12 hours $2,795
Intensives are private pay. Not billed to insurance.

Is Brainspotting Right for You?
Brainspotting is a strong fit if you feel stuck despite previous therapy, carry trauma or stress in your body, or want to go deeper than conversation allows. It works well alongside ongoing therapy or as a standalone intensive experience.
