Brainspotting Therapists in Great Bend, KS
Brainspotting and focused mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, and Art Therapy are some of the modalities used to help each client achieve their personal goals.
The definition of insanity is continuing to do the same things over and over again while expecting a different outcome, and sadly, many people who have good intentions and are working hard to address their life challenges are stuck in the same destructive thoughts and behaviors. We often feel overwhelmed by what life throws at us, such as parenting stress, relationship or family conflicts, grief, job related issues or trauma, and get stuck in negative responses. Together we can find a plan and path that promotes growth, changing thoughts and behaviors and allowing for positive outcomes.

You’ve had it. This world isn’t what it advertises itself to be. And you are just one “Don’t worry, it’ll get better” or “I'm praying for you” away from telling the well-meaning advice givers to stick it where the sun doesn’t shine. If only they knew how many times you fought the urge to silence this pain for good just in the past 24 hours. Your mind’s playlist is a spiral of piercing rage. You feel like your origin story is basically unfit for human consumption. How could any rational human being sit with you in all the torment and darkness? All of which leads you to wonder: Is there any hope for me in this life?

Brainspotting Therapists
How does brainspotting work?
Brainspotting works by using eye positioning to identify and process traumatic memories so that a client is better able to move forward and live with less fear. The theory behind brainspotting is that by identifying where a person looks when thinking of traumatic memories, a therapist will be able to guide them to focus on that spot and work with the client to get them out of the “fight, flight, freeze” response associated with the traumatic memory.
Is brainspotting an evidence-based therapy?
Brainspotting is a theory-based alternative therapy. It is one of the newest forms of treatment, so very little research has been completed that examines the mechanism by which it works. The theory behind brainspotting is that eye position can be linked to areas of the brain that store and process memory.
How effective is brainspotting?
Because it is such a new treatment, the effectiveness of brainspotting cannot be quantified. Some people have found it to be effective on its own, or in conjunction with other types of therapy. It is considered an alternative therapy, and it is popular with people for whom more traditional therapies have proven ineffective.
How long does brainspotting take to work?
A typical brainspotting session will last between 60 to 90 minutes. There is no required number of sessions needed to complete brainspotting therapy, but in many cases it is delivered over the course of about six sessions. Clients are encouraged to rate their level of distress prior to a session and again following a session, and to track progress.
