How It Works
We use specific eye positions, known as brainspots, to access areas of the brain connected to what you’re experiencing. From here, the brain begins to process naturally, at its own pace.
There is no need to revisit or relive difficult experiences in detail. Sessions are calm, focused and gently guided, with you remaining in control throughout.
Working with children and young people
Brainspotting can be adapted to support children and young people in a gentle and age-appropriate way. It doesn’t rely on explaining everything in words, which is especially helpful for younger clients.
I work at a pace that feels safe, using a calm and supportive approach to help children and young people process emotions, reduce overwhelm, and feel more settled.
Training and approach
Brainspotting was developed by Dr. David Grand, a leading figure in psychological health, trauma and performance work. I have trained directly with Dr. Grand and am a certified Brainspotting practitioner. My clinical work is further informed by ongoing advanced masterclasses.
