Brain Spotting
In a world that often seems to move too fast, finding a safe harbour for our mental and emotional wellbeing can sometimes feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. If you're navigating through the complexities of anxiety, trauma, or emotional blockages, it’s crucial to remember that your feelings are valid, and finding the right support is a step toward healing.
Shama's approach to Brainspotting Therapy offers a compassionate, trauma-informed, and holistic path to emotional wellness that honors your unique journey. With an understanding heart and a wealth of professional knowledge, Shama invites you to explore how Brainspotting can be the key to unlocking a deeper level of healing and self-discovery.
What is Brainspotting Therapy?
Brain-spotting Therapy (BSP) is a powerful therapeutic method that combines the benefits of somatic experiencing and elements reminiscent of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). It operates on the principle that the eye's natural gaze can connect your inner emotions to the outer world, thereby tapping into the brain's inherent ability to heal itself.
​
By identifying "Brainspots," or specific points in your visual field, BSP allows for the direct accessing of unresolved traumas lying within the subcortical brain. This process not only aids in healing trauma-based emotional and somatic conditions but also enhances performance and creativity by unblocking deeper emotional and body-based brain processes.
