WHAT IS BRAINSPOTTING?

Brainspotting is a powerful, focused treatment method that works by identifying, processing and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation and a variety of challenging symptoms. Brainspotting is a simultaneous form of diagnosis and treatment, enhanced with BioLateral sound, which is deep, direct, powerful yet focused and containing.

Brainspotting identifies activated eye positions designated as Brainspots. Located through either one or both eyes, Brainspots are observed from either the “Inside Window” of the clients felt sense and/or the “Outside Window” of the clients’ reflexive responses (i.e., blink, eye twitches or wobbles, pupil dilation, quick breaths and subtle body shifts). Students will first learn the phenomenological approach that underpins strategies for Brainspotting, followed by strategies for identifying and processing Brainspots. Attention will be given to the utilization and integration of Brainspotting into ongoing treatment, including highly dissociative clients.

Brainspotting is adaptable to almost all areas of specialization. Brainspotting provides therapists with powerful tools to enable their patients to quickly and effectively process through the deep brain sources of many held traumas, emotional, somatic and performance problems.

IN-PERSON WORKSHOPS/RETREATS

Mariya Javed-Payne also offers in-person Brainspotting intensive retreats and specialty workshops. These experiences are advanced deep dives into trauma healing, personal growth and consciousness, and learning advanced practice and embodiment skills with Brainspotting and other somatic and energy based healing approaches. By gathering in intimate groups and addressing our own wounds in community, participants can gain new tools and ways of relating and being that are deep, nourishing, and sustainable. Take a look at the schedule below to explore in-person experiences.
