Brainspotting Therapists in Saratoga Springs, UT
primarily use Brainspotting and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), focused brain-body approaches that help process trauma held beyond words.
Most of the people I work with don’t appear to be struggling. They’re successful, dependable, and keep showing up for everyone else. But beneath the surface, they’re carrying anxiety, stress, emotional exhaustion, or the effects of past experiences that never seem to fully go away. If you’ve been pushing through, overthinking, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can help. Together, we’ll better understand what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and help you move toward a calmer, more fulfilling life.

I specialize in EMDR and Brainspotting, which work with the nervous system rather than just insight.
You may be someone who looks capable on the outside but feels anxious, overwhelmed, or exhausted on the inside. You might understand where these patterns come from, yet your body still reacts as if you’re under threat. You’re tired of managing and pushing through, and you want relief that feels real and lasting. Your goal is to feel safer in your body, more present in your life, and less driven by old survival patterns so you can live with more ease and choice.

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.
