What Is Brainspotting Therapy?
Brainspotting is a powerful therapy that identifies trauma sources and processes emotional pain. A brainspot is a visual point in space that you have a strong reaction to. Your therapist will guide your eyes to identify which area in your field of vision produced the strongest emotional and physical response. Brainspotting is a neurobiological tool used to help you and your therapist identify areas that need work.
With this tool, you can release experiences and symptoms that are typically subconscious. During the session, your therapist will work to create a safe and therapeutic environment and assist you with your emotional release.

Has Brainspotting Therapy Ever Failed?
Some factors that can contribute to failure in achieving the desired result from brainspotting include:
- Complex issues: Some situations or conditions may require a combination of brainspotting along with other therapies.
- Unrealistic expectations: Often expecting drastic results, whether positive or negative, can affect the outcomes of therapy.
- Insufficient time: Some conditions may require more sessions than others. Termination of therapy before resolving issues can cause negative outcomes.
It is important to remember that different therapeutic approaches can have different outcomes for varying situations. To achieve your goals with brainspotting make sure you set clear goals, engage actively in therapy, and maintain self-care practices.
