Become a Brain Spotting and Somatic Experience Practitioner

Explore a five step process to begin trauma brain spotting coaching, with guidance on window of tolerance, dual awareness, and how brain spotting helps clients desensitize and uncover body blockages.

Assess the client's goals for the session and their trauma responses, including disassociation patterns, to map their world and establish measurable outcomes for coaching success.

Learn to assess and explain the window of tolerance—the optimal calm-activation zone—for clients. Guide brainspotting sessions with pendulum and titration to keep clients fully present and avoid disassociation.

Learn to identify the window of tolerance and avoid disassociation through somatic brainspotting with titration and pendulum techniques. Expand clients' tolerance toward optimal arousal using dual attunement and trauma-aware guidance.

Learn to guide clients into a calm, safe mental space, identify bodily sensations and brain spots, and use Brainspotting to reformat the body for quicker somatic processing.

Develop dual awareness in clients by guiding somatic trauma processing with window of tolerance, bilateral eMDR stimulation, and present-moment sensory experiences to prevent flooding and dissociation.

Explore pendulation and titration as a paced somatic approach, integrating brainspotting and somatic experiencing to safely expand the window of tolerance and enable controlled emotional release.

Learn to use pendulation and titration within Brainspotting and somatic experience to safely expand clients' window of tolerance through visualization, safe-space recall, and body-based processing.

Explore pendulation techniques to process discomfort by guiding clients between a safe home base memory and a challenging moment, using breath, body scans, titration, and brain spotting to calmly reframe.

Master titration in somatic therapy to break down big experiences into small sensory chunks, expand the window of tolerance, and use brainspotting, pendulums, and attunement between coach and client.

Explain titration with pendulum motion to expand the window of tolerance using breathwork, meditation, brainspotting, and somatic experiencing, guiding clients toward release and safer engagement with traumatic memories.

Engage the ventral vagal complex to regulate the autonomic nervous system through social engagement, breathwork, and compassionate connection for trauma-informed coaching.

Follow a five-step brainspotting process for eMDR sessions, integrating somatic experiencing to assess trauma and expand the window of tolerance through titration and jewel awareness.

Explore somatic experiencing and fuse it with brainspotting techniques to release trauma through four stages, titration, and regulation—using dual attunement, co-regulation, and sequencing.

Learn the three stages of somatic experiencing—initial safety, middle titration and regulation, and final follow-up—integrating Brainspotting to process trauma in the body and memory.

Learn how somatic experiencing and brainspotting work together through titration, undulation, discharge, and regulation to help clients process trauma, rewire the nervous system, and regulate on their own.

Explore somatic experiencing with examples like meditation, yoga, sound therapy, breathwork, hypnotherapy, and brainspotting to release blockages and regulate a dysregulated nervous system.

Learn somatic experience sequencing to guide body-based tension release through beginning movements, sensation descriptions, and discharge. Help clients name feelings, track breath, and process emotions with Brainspotting.

Explore somatic experiencing and Brainspotting to understand how clients release stored trauma through regulation, discharge, and attunement, preparing you for upcoming Brainspotting techniques.

Explore brain spotting techniques and eye techniques that use eye positions to access limbic memory. Bypass talk therapy to release trauma non-invasively and expand the window of tolerance.

Explore how Brainspotting helps with anxiety, depression, PTSD and trauma, sports performance, and creativity by processing unprocessed memories through somatic reprocessing and visualization.

Explore how eye movements impact the limbic and nervous systems and engage the vagus nerve, brainspotting, somatic experience, and breath-based self-regulation to resolve stored trauma.

Dual attunement blends client rapport with somatic awareness to guide brainspotting, monitoring breathing, body cues, and eye movements while staying present and attuned to both client and self.

Frame the session as a client-led collaboration where the client brings memories and goals, guiding a shared space from dysregulation to regulation through breathing and regulation strategies.

Discover the principle of uncertainty in Brainspotting, surrender to uncertainty, and use bilateral stimulation with music to navigate the subcortical journey and root cause analysis.

Activate and resource brain spots by discussing root causes and keystone memories, eliciting feelings stored in brain and body to support desensitizing and discharge.

Master basic brainspotting techniques using finger movement and a 12-inch distance to locate brain spots, then guide clients through sensations toward external and internal windows for release and processing.

Explore brainspotting with one eye after mastering two-eye practice, using convergence, internal and external windows, and dual attunement to locate brain spots and trigger release.

Explore internal and external windows in brain spotting to locate where clients feel tension, using convergence of gaze and pointers to activate brain spots and foster attunement.

Learn how differential convergence for brain spots uses external and internal windows, including z axis convergence, to activate different brain spots and enhance client attunement.

Discover how brainspotting fuses with somatic experiencing and therapies like hypnotherapy, CBT, breathwork, meditation, and mindfulness. Access cues, regulate the nervous system, and release embodied emotions.

Complete this brainspotting course and apply techniques to help clients process trauma through dual attunement, eye positions, and a five-step framework.
