What is Brainspotting Therapy (BSP)?
Brainspotting Therapy (BSP) is an advanced, brain-based therapeutic approach developed by Dr. David Grand. It is designed to help individuals process and release deep-seated emotional and physical pain by identifying, processing, and releasing sources of trauma and distress within the brain. At In Vivo Center, BSP uses the positioning of the eyes to locate points in the visual field that correlate with unresolved trauma, allowing clients to access and process these issues in a focused and profound manner. Brainspotting leverages the brain’s natural self-scanning and self-healing ability, making it an effective tool for a wide range of emotional and psychological issues.
The primary objectives of Brainspotting Therapy at In Vivo Center include:
-
Processing Trauma: Helping clients access, process, and resolve traumatic memories and experiences.
-

The Therapeutic Process of Brainspotting
The process of Brainspotting Therapy at In Vivo Center involves several key phases designed to facilitate deep emotional healing:
Identifying Brainspots
Using the positioning of the eyes, the therapist helps the client locate “brainspots”—specific points in the visual field that correspond to areas of emotional distress or trauma in the brain. The identification of brainspots is guided by the client’s physical and emotional responses, which indicate areas of unresolved pain.
Developing Mindfulness and Self-Awareness
Throughout the therapy, clients practice mindfulness and increase self-awareness, learning to observe their thoughts and emotions without judgment. This mindfulness helps clients stay grounded and present during the processing of difficult emotions.
Ongoing Support and Maintenance
The therapist provides continuous support to help clients maintain their progress and prevent relapse. Clients are encouraged to continue practicing mindfulness and self-care techniques to sustain their emotional well-being.

Initial Assessment and Goal Setting
The therapy begins with a comprehensive assessment of the client’s mental health, emotional challenges, and treatment goals. The therapist works with the client to identify specific issues and areas of focus for the therapy sessions.
Processing and Releasing Trauma
Once brainspots are identified, the therapist facilitates a focused processing of the traumatic memories or emotional pain associated with these spots. Clients are encouraged to stay with their emotional and physical experiences, allowing the brain to naturally process and release the trauma.
Integration and Healing
As the therapy progresses, clients integrate their newfound insights and emotional releases into their daily lives. The therapist supports clients in developing healthy coping strategies and building resilience to handle future challenges.
Brainspotting Therapy at In Vivo Center offers a powerful and innovative approach to emotional healing by tapping into the brain’s natural ability to process and release trauma.
