Brainspotting Therapy at Overcomers

It sounds a bit sci-fi, but it’s cool! Brainspotting uses your eye gaze to find specific spots in your brain that are linked to intense emotions or trauma. By focusing on these spots, you can process those feelings more deeply and find relief. It’s like your eyes are a roadmap to healing.

Finding a Brainspotting Therapist in Colorado

We believe that where you look can change how you feel — and that's the foundation of Brainspotting.

Brainspotting is a body-based trauma therapy that uses eye position to access places in the brain where distressing memories and emotions get stored, often below the reach of talk therapy alone. At Overcomers Counseling in Colorado, our Brainspotting-trained therapists use this focused approach to help clients process deep-seated trauma, chronic anxiety, and stuck emotional patterns.

Our team of dedicated Brainspotting-trained counselors combines this technique with genuine clinical care and patience.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hilary was lovely. She was kind, patient, incredibly knowledgeable and very validating. She had extensive knowledge of my conditions that most providers dismiss and it was very comforting and encouraging to hear she knew of those conditions and was well informed of them. Best psychiatrist I've had yet. 10/10

Clarissa Mendez, LCSW
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Clarissa is very professional and caring, she has been a tremendous factor in my cognitive recovery. She is intuitive and her knowledge and skills with concussions has me confident that my therapy with her has brought me back to my previous mindset and I'm no longer fearful, anxious, depressed or judgemental about my car accident and the injuries I suffered. She's truly an asset to have as a resource for not only cognitive issues but just positive social interactions. I Absolutely look forward to our sessions and would highly recommend her.
