brainspotting intensives

Brainspotting is a powerful therapeutic technique that taps into the brain-body connection to process and release stored trauma and emotional distress. It identifies and activates “brainspots,” which are eye positions associated with unprocessed trauma or emotional experiences. By focusing on these spots and accessing the deeper regions of the brain, Brainspotting allows for the processing and resolution of trauma on a neurological level.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, Brainspotting does not rely solely on verbal communication. Instead, it harnesses the body’s innate capacity to heal by accessing the brain’s natural processing mechanisms. This can lead to profound shifts in perception, emotional regulation, and overall well-being.

Considering your unique needs and preferences, the pacing can be tailored to align with your comfort level and therapeutic goals, allowing for a personalized approach to healing.

While Brainspotting therapy focuses on processing specific traumatic experiences, it works well for grief and loss, anxiety, depression, financial frustrations, etc. Find more information on brainspotting here.

BrainspottIng intensives are scheduled for 2 hours at a rate of $250 per session. This also includes a prep session AND POST-session conducted within 4 days of the intensive.

No surprise act and good faith estimates

The No Surprises Act, implemented on January 1, 2022, provides important consumer protections against unexpected medical bills. Clients can rest assured that if they receive emergency care, visit an in-network facility, or inadvertently receive services from an out-of-network provider, they will only be responsible for their regular cost-sharing amount. This act eliminates the stress and financial burden often associated with surprise medical bills, offering clients peace of mind and greater transparency in healthcare billing practices. It is a significant step towards ensuring that individuals are not blindsided by unforeseen expenses when seeking necessary medical treatment.

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, healthcare providers and healthcare facilities are required to inform healthcare consumers not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under this law, health care providers are required to provide clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
