Frequently Asked Questions

How is Brainspotting different from EMDR?

Both use focused attention and eye position to help process distress, but Brainspotting uses a fixed eye position located to where activation is strongest, while EMDR uses guided bilateral eye movements. Many clients benefit from both, at different points in treatment.

Do I need to talk about what happened?

No extensive verbal account is required — Brainspotting is designed to reach experiences that are difficult to put into words.
