Brainspotting for Hayward Residents
Hayward residents seeking deep, effective trauma therapy have access to certified brainspotting practitioners throughout the East Bay. Brainspotting is a powerful brain-body therapy that helps process trauma, anxiety, chronic pain, and performance issues at their source.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, brainspotting accesses the subcortical brain where trauma is stored. Through specific eye positions, your therapist helps your brain release stored trauma and reprocess difficult experiences - leading to faster, deeper healing.
