Harness the infinite healing power of positive emotions

Harness the Infinite Healing Power of Expansion Brainspots

Expansion Brainspotting is a groundbreaking technique that taps into specific points in your visual field to amplify positive emotions and experiences. While traditional Brainspotting helps heal trauma and pain, Expansion Brainspotting helps you access and expand the best parts of yourself.

This powerful approach activates new neural pathways, similar to trauma-focused Brainspotting, but instead enhances the intensity, duration, and frequency of optimal emotional states. It's like turning up the volume on joy, creativity, and connection.

What Can You Expand?

This powerful approach helps you expand:

  • โœจ Hopefulness
  • ๐Ÿ˜Š Joy
  • ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ Peace

How Expansion Brainspotting Works

Rather than focusing on what's wrong or painful, Expansion Brainspotting identifies and amplifies what's right and resourceful within you. We locate the eye position that connects to your positive states and use that "brainspot" to strengthen and expand those experiences.

1

Identify Your Resource

We begin by having you recall a time when you felt the positive emotion or state you want to expandโ€”joy, creativity, confidence, or flow.

2

Find the Expansion Spot

Using a pointer, I help you locate the eye position where you feel this positive state most strongly in your body.

3

Amplify and Integrate

You maintain focus on that spot while your brain naturally amplifies and integrates this positive state, creating stronger neural pathways.

4

Anchor for Future Access

The session strengthens your ability to access this state whenever you need itโ€”before a performance, during creative work, or in challenging moments.

Understanding Expansion Brainspotting

Expansion Brainspotting uses the same brain-body mechanism as trauma-focused Brainspotting, but instead of processing what's painful, it amplifies what's positive. Rather than healing wounds, we're enhancing resources.

  • Performance optimization: Finding and sustaining flow state in performance, athletics, or public speaking
  • Positive state amplification: Strengthening access to joy, peace, motivation, or spiritual connection

My Unique Background for This Work

With my MFA in Theatre combined with Expansion Brainspotting training, I bring both clinical expertise and deep understanding of the creative process. I know what it's like to work with character development, access emotional depths, and navigate the vulnerability of performance. This dual perspective informs how I work with artists, performers, and anyone seeking to amplify positive states.

The process involves identifying the positive state you want to expand, finding the eye position (brainspot) where you feel it most strongly in your body, and allowing your brain to naturally amplify and integrate that state through sustained focus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Expansion Brainspotting only for artists and performers?

No! While my theatre background makes me especially attuned to creative and performance work, Expansion Brainspotting is helpful for anyone wanting to enhance positive emotional states - athletes, entrepreneurs, parents, anyone.

How is this different from regular Brainspotting?

Regular Brainspotting focuses on processing trauma and negative experiences. Expansion Brainspotting amplifies positive emotions and optimal states. Think of it as using the same brain-body mechanism to enhance what's working rather than heal what's hurting.

How many sessions do I need?

The number of sessions varies based on your goals and what you're working to expand. Some people focus on a single creative project or performance, while others want to deepen their overall capacity for positive states. We'll discuss what makes sense for your specific situation and track progress together.

Can I do both regular and Expansion Brainspotting?

Absolutely. Many clients start with traditional Brainspotting to process trauma or pain, then move to Expansion Brainspotting to amplify positive states. The two approaches complement each other beautifully.
