Course Description:

Brainspotting Phase Two builds on the foundational theory of Brainspotting and introduces students to five additional Brainspotting techniques to broaden the skills of the attendees in treating their more severely traumatized clients. Multiple techniques are taught for clients who have adaptively dissociated as a result of severe trauma. Practitioners will also learn advanced setup frames aimed at helping clients who feel overwhelmed in session quickly access ways for them to feel resourced.

Attendees will review key principles and theories from Phase One in addition to learning important tools and techniques in working with dissociation and the more severely traumatized needing higher levels of resourcing. These five new methods of Brainspotting allow the clinicians to find specific, resourced eye positions to keep their clients within their window of tolerance. The more advanced techniques will help attendees become more confident in their ability to support more fragile and dissociative clients.

Educational Goals:

After taking part in this course, participants will have acquired additional clinical skills to successfully treat those with more complex trauma, such as those who often need techniques that allow the client to break through their dissociation which often keeps traumatized clients stuck for years or a lifetime. The additional resourcing will allow clients who previously disengaged or shut down to successfully heal from their complex trauma and their pernicious negative cognitions. Additionally, practitioners will find that their clients’ unrelenting coping mechanisms of “Flight, Fight, Freeze, and Fawn” will dissipate as they are able to resolve trauma and disturbing life experiences with additional resourcing tools.

Learning Objectives (21 Total CE Hours):

Participants will show the two most important Brainspotting principles of staying in uncertainty and following the client by “staying in the tail of the comet” during the client’s mindful processing.
Participants will be able to differentiate between the three of the most common and challenging symptoms of an Autonomic Nervous System that is “Stuck On” (Overly Sympathetic) and “Stuck Off” (Overly Parasympathetic).
Participants will stay current in the field of brain science by being able to determine the two regions of the brain most involved in regulating a dysregulated nervous system.
Participants will be able to explain two of the major benefits for clients whose nervous system is regulated or in a state of “coherence”.
Participants will be able to demonstrate the nine steps of the “Inside/ Outside Window” Brainspotting Technique and apply their knowledge in a practicum as both the therapist and the client. Qualified assistants will be available to provide needed support apply the technique more skillfully for this and subsequent four practicums.
Participants will be able to demonstrate the nine steps of the “Rolling Brainspotting” Technique and apply their knowledge in a practicum as both the therapist and the client.

Participants will use three techniques to help the client manage their level of activation or perceived disturbance with the “One Eye Brainspotting” utilizing a set of blacked out goggles, “Z Axis Brainspotting” utilizing distance in the visual field, and “Vergence Brainspotting” moving rapidly close and far to kickstart the vagus nerve to all the Parasympathetic Nervous System to kick in.
Participants will be able to classify which is the “Activated Eye” and the “Resource Eye'' while learning how to use goggles to keep their clients within their window of tolerance while processing difficult emotions, thoughts, or experiences.
Participants will demonstrate the “One Eye Brainspotting” Technique and apply their knowledge in a practicum as both the therapist and the client.
Participants will be able to role-play the “Z Axis Brainspotting” Technique and apply their knowledge in a practicum as both the therapist and the client.
Participants will be able to identify the two things that happen during the “Vergence Brainspotting” technique to lower client activation. (The vagus nerve and the PSN)

Participants will experience an exercise to discover how processing feels with eyes open or eye closed and describe the difference between the two.
Participants will be able to determine two symptoms indicating a client is in Flashback versus one who is outside their window of tolerance.
Participants will consider that relational attunement is the most critical aspect of helping those with very complex PTSD and that staying present and mindful, moment by moment, is crucial to fostering safety and trust.
Participants will be able to demonstrate the Advanced Resource Model for fragile or dissociative clients as well as clients with very complex PTSD.
