Brainspotting

Find real healing.

Sometimes, talk therapy alone isn’t enough to heal the deeper issues behind the challenges you’re experiencing.

If you’re ready to see real results that go beyond the possibilities of traditional therapy, the holistic therapy methods we offer — EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, and Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Experiencing — can get you there.

We’ll help you find relief and start really living…free from the past.

Brainspotting is a powerful tool that can help you process and let go of difficult experiences. It’s an effective method for dealing with emotional pain, trauma, and tough symptoms by tapping into your brain's natural healing abilities.

Using eye positions to target areas in your brain where these issues are stored, even if you're not fully aware of them, your therapist can help you access your deeper emotions and start to heal.

This method, along with a foundation of trust established between you and your therapist, can help you feel a sense of relief in just a few sessions.

  • Renee Williams, Lyl Starr, Tyler Swycinsky, and Trish Parker are trained in Brainspotting.

    Each therapist at Modern Sessions has training in some or multiple holistic modalities, and our practice owner, Renee Williams, has built the practice on the foundation of these methods. You can learn more about each of our therapists here.

  • The number of Brainspotting sessions you'll need can vary based on individual factors such as the nature of your trauma and your response to treatment. On average, some clients find relief in as few as 6-12 sessions, while more complex cases may require more. Your therapist will collaborate with you to determine the optimal treatment plan.

  • Brainspotting is especially effective for individuals who have experienced trauma, PTSD, or distressing life events. It has also shown promise for anxiety, phobias, and other emotional issues. If you've been struggling with the impact of past experiences or negative emotions, EMDR could be a treatment to consider.
