Brainspotting Intensives
Brainspotting therapy is a powerful, neuroscience-based approach that provides anxiety relief by helping resolve the symptoms and pain connected to trauma. Additionally, Brainspotting integrates somatic experiencing and IFS/Parts work to facilitate deeper healing. Intensives offer a significant opportunity to:
Go deeper, faster: With more time and fewer interruptions, your brain and body can remain engaged in the healing process, allowing breakthroughs to occur without interruption.
Accelerate progress: What might take months of individual counseling sessions can often be processed in a shorter, more focused period during intensives.
Create lasting shifts: Brainspotting therapy works by accessing and releasing unprocessed trauma held in the body. Intensives provide your nervous system with the time and space to fully navigate through this healing, often resulting in profound and lasting change.
Reduce overwhelm: For clients with busy schedules, intensives can be more convenient—allowing meaningful progress without the need to wait week after week.
Address complex issues: Intensives are particularly beneficial for trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and performance blocks that require sustained focus.
Intensives are customized to your needs and typically include an initial 60-minute assessment and planning session, a 3-4 hour intensive session, followed by another 60-minute follow-up session. Contact for pricing information.
