Ask Dr. Paula

OMG! This is a excellent book for therapists who want a modality that really works. I have completed the basic training and can't wait for my next phase.. The material is easy to follow and the reader goes at a good pace. Love Dr. Grand's work!

Easy Listening yet Informative

Was enjoyable and entertaining while offering a wealth of information. Techniques to use in your own were included.

Fantastic mapping of your brain with vision and audio

What an innovative way to dive into your psyche with vision spots and add audio - highly recommended

A Brain Opener

With a year of EMDR therapy I’m excited that my therapist does BrainSpotting as well. Throughout the book I could tell I personally look in certain ways and it brought up more information about my growth. If you were looking for self growth this is an excellent book to get into

just fascinating to learn

i have done brainspotting and emdr therapy myself, and I love learning the mechanics and how/why it all works. it's fascinating

Brainspotting

What a wonderful informative book. I highly recommend this book. I’m going to read this book again.

Mind blowing

This book is well written engaging and shares powerful concepts that can change the world and how we see ourselves and each other

Clinically useful - great for therapists

Grand's contribution is quite remarkable, and I respect the academic openness and humility he exhibits in this book. I have used brainspotting in therapy alongside various methods that employ somatics and interoception, and this book not only gives a great recounting of how Grand developed the techniques, but gives great case studies and distinctions that can be immediately brought into the consultation room. I promptly began enjoying enhanced responses in my own life and in my work with psychotherapy clients in both group and individual settings.

I greatly appreciated Grand's respectful critique of the protocolized, technique driven approaches, including EMDR, and found that quite validating. His methods involve a balance between attunement and technique that is often underappreciated - depriving many clients of the results that can be achieved by it.

Along with this book, I read his article written with Dr. Corrigan, which has expanded my understanding of both brainspotting and how to leverage the mid brain orienting response more directly in therapy. I can endorse Brainspotting as a highly useful method that can bring elegant results for highly-attuned therapists.

Informative

I didn’t know what Brainspotting was! Now I am an informed client. Brainspotting is an informative read in layman’s language. I highly recommend it.
