Brainspotting
What is Brainspotting?
A different way of paying attention to what you're experiencing.
Brainspotting is a focused, body-oriented approach that uses visual attention, mindfulness, and awareness of internal experience. Rather than requiring you to explain every detail of an experience, Brainspotting creates space to slow down, notice what is happening internally, and remain curious about what you are experiencing.
It was developed within the therapeutic field, and at Indigo Brainspotting it is offered as a wellness and coaching service — a structured way to pay attention to what your body and nervous system may be communicating.
The Foundations
What Brainspotting draws on
Visual attention
A specific point in your visual field is used to help locate and focus on what you're experiencing internally.
Focused mindfulness
You're invited to slow down and observe your internal experience with curiosity rather than effort.
Body awareness
Attention is given to what your nervous system and body are communicating during the process.
What a session may feel like
- A sense of slowing down or settling
- Noticing sensations, emotions, or memories
- Moments of activation or release
- Feeling more resolved or complete afterward
Why someone may explore Brainspotting
- You feel emotionally stuck after an experience
- You understand something intellectually but still feel affected
- You're looking for a body-aware approach to wellness
- You want a different kind of space than talk-based coaching
What Brainspotting is NOT
- Psychotherapy or clinical mental-health treatment
- A diagnosis or treatment of any disorder
- A replacement for medical or psychiatric care
- A guarantee of any particular outcome
At Indigo Brainspotting, Brainspotting is offered as a wellness and coaching service rather than psychotherapy.
