Trauma is a deeply impactful experience that can leave lasting scars on our mental and emotional well-being. It can manifest in various ways, such as anxiety, depression, and even physical symptoms. While traditional therapy methods can be effective in addressing trauma, there is a specialized therapy technique called Brainspotting that offers unique benefits in supporting the healing journey.

Brainspotting is a therapeutic approach that taps into the brain-body connection to help individuals process and release trauma. Brainspotting utilizes the visual field to locate and access unprocessed trauma in the brain. By identifying specific eye positions, therapists can help clients access the root of their trauma and engage in deep healing. One of the key advantages of Brainspotting is its ability to access the subconscious brain where trauma is stored. Traditional talk therapy may not always reach these deeper parts of the brain, making it challenging to fully process and release trauma. The therapist serves as a guide in the healing process, creating a safe and supportive environment for clients to explore their trauma. This relational and collaborative approach can empower individuals to take control of their healing journey and make significant progress in a relatively short period. If you are considering exploring Brainspotting as part of your healing journey, it is essential to work with a licensed and certified therapist who has experience in this specialized technique. Healing from trauma is a personal and unique journey for each individual. If you are ready to explore this powerful therapeutic approach, reach out to Still Waters Counseling and Brainspotting for a free consultation call and take the first step towards healing and transformation.

PSALM 23

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
