When You Feel Something’s There—But Can’t Quite Reach It

Ever had a reaction that surprised even you? Tears out of nowhere. A wave of dread before a conversation. A shutdown that doesn’t match the moment. It’s not random—it’s your nervous system remembering something your mind may not have words for.
Brainspotting is a powerful, body-based therapy that helps you access those deeper emotional layers—the ones talking doesn’t always touch. Through eye positioning and focused presence, Brainspotting connects to the places in your brain where emotional pain, memory, and healing are stored.
There’s no need to retell every story. No need to explain it all. This isn’t about making sense of your past—it’s about giving your body the chance to release what it’s been holding.

What Makes Brainspotting Different

Brainspotting works from the inside out. Instead of focusing on thoughts or behaviors, we tune into the body’s signals and follow them—at your pace, with no pressure.
Sessions are quiet, intentional, and deeply attuned. You’ll be supported in:
• Tracking physical sensations, emotions, and memories as they surface
• Locating a “brainspot”—a specific eye position that activates deeper processing
• Staying with what arises without rushing or intellectualizing
• Allowing your body to guide the healing, instead of pushing it

Brainspotting at Mended

Some clients come to Brainspotting after feeling stuck in talk therapy. Others are navigating something they can’t quite name—an emotional fog, a persistent tension, a sense that something is unresolved. Brainspotting offers a way to access those harder-to-reach layers of experience, with compassion and without force.
It’s especially supportive for:

What to Expect in a Session

We’ll create a calming environment where you can feel safe and steady. You might notice body sensations, emotions, or memories surfacing as you focus on a brainspot. There’s no pressure to speak—only an invitation to notice.
Each session is guided by your comfort and capacity. This is not a performance—it’s a process.

Is Brainspotting Right for Me?

If you’ve been holding onto something you can’t quite name, or if you feel stuck even after trying other approaches, Brainspotting might be worth exploring.
We’ll help you figure out if it’s the right fit—or point you toward something that is.
