Brainspotting presented by Lisa Larson, MA, LMFT. Brainspotting is a powerful brain-based trauma therapy that accesses the deepest regions of the brain where clients store their traumatic experiences and survival terror. This access to the limbic system and brain stem allows deep transformation to occur. It works by identifying, processing, and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional and body pain, trauma, dissociation, terror, flashbacks, panic, and other challenging symptoms. Symptoms of unprocessed trauma are notoriously difficult to eliminate through talk therapy. Brainspotting can be utilized to clear negative cognition and experiences as well as strengthen positive beliefs and states of being. This presentation will demonstrate clearing a negative experience and self-concept as well as increasing a desired, positive state of being and core beliefs. Brainspotting was voted the most effective trauma treatment by the parents and survivors of the Sandy Hook massacre after a five-year study by the Sandy Hook Foundation comparing over 25 therapeutic modalities.
