DEC 7 24: Brainspotting Podcast
This episode begins by introducing Call2Parent—a supportive community dedicated to healing childhood trauma through embodied practices and informed discussions. From there, Dr. Robbie Abeles, who has nearly four decades of experience in trauma and addiction therapy, explains how Brainspotting targets subcortical regions of the brain to release unresolved wounds. She illustrates the technique’s emphasis on eye positions as “access points” that allow the body and brain to communicate effectively outside of conscious language. During the extended Q&A, participants explore various applications of Brainspotting, including self-spotting, addressing feelings of shame, and bridging attachment ruptures. Dr. Abeles underscores the importance of choosing a qualified practitioner and highlights that personal safety, paced sessions, and relational connection are crucial for transformation. Listeners gain insight into how Brainspotting complements other healing modalities, tapping into the brain’s innate capacity to reset and integrate traumatic experiences.
