Brainspotting Therapy in Madison, WI

Navigating Life While Carrying Unresolved Pain

You’ve been struggling with emotions that feel too big to contain and memories that won’t stay buried. No matter how hard you try to move forward, the weight of your experiences pulls you back, making it difficult to focus, connect, or feel at ease.

You’ve mastered the art of keeping it together for others, but in quiet moments, the pain breaks through. Perhaps it was during a meeting when your thoughts drifted back to a difficult memory, or while trying to relax at home, an old wound reopened. The frustration, sadness, and self-doubt seem to snowball, and the more you try to push it aside, the more overwhelming it becomes. You’re exhausted from reliving the same cycles and ready to break free.

How I Can Help with Brainspotting

I work with individuals seeking to heal from trauma, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm using Brainspotting, an innovative, brain-body-based approach to therapy. Brainspotting is designed to access and process deeply held emotional pain, helping your brain and body work together to release trauma.

Here’s how it works: your brain stores unprocessed trauma in specific areas, and these are often linked to your eye position. By identifying “brainspots” associated with emotional distress, Brainspotting enables you to gently access these memories and emotions. With my guidance, we’ll work together to help you process and release these stored experiences, allowing you to find relief and create space for healing.

What Makes Brainspotting Effective?

  • It taps into your brain’s natural ability to heal itself.

  • It works at the deeper, subconscious level where trauma is stored.

  • It’s not about rehashing every painful detail—it’s about finding and clearing what’s keeping you stuck.

Many clients describe Brainspotting as both powerful and gentle, offering them insights, emotional release, and a newfound sense of calm they didn’t think was possible.

Frequently Asked Questions About Brainspotting

  • Brainspotting is a therapeutic approach that helps you access, process, and release trauma and emotional distress stored in the brain and body. It works by identifying “brainspots,” which are eye positions linked to unresolved emotional or physical pain. By focusing on these brainspots in a safe, supportive environment, Brainspotting allows your brain to tap into its natural self-healing abilities, helping to reduce the emotional charge of traumatic experiences and create space for healing

  • While traditional talk therapy focuses on verbal processing and problem-solving, Brainspotting works on a deeper, subconscious level. It uses the connection between your eyes, brain, and body to access trauma that may not be fully processed through talking alone. This makes Brainspotting particularly effective for people who feel “stuck” or unable to move past certain experiences despite previous therapy. It’s a gentle, non-invasive process that doesn’t require rehashing painful memories in detail, making it a good option for those who find traditional therapy overwhelming.

  • Brainspotting is highly effective for addressing a wide range of challenges, including:

    • Trauma and PTSD

    • Anxiety and panic attacks

    • Depression

    • Chronic stress and burnout

    • Emotional regulation difficulties

    • Physical symptoms related to emotional distress (e.g., headaches, chronic pain)

    • Performance anxiety in areas like sports, work, or creative pursuits

    Because it works directly with the brain-body connection, Brainspotting is also helpful for people who feel stuck or disconnected from their emotions and are looking for deeper healing.
