Getting Ready for Your Brainspotting Session (Telehealth Edition)

Here’s a simple, step-by-step guide to help you prepare:

Step 1: Create Your Healing Space

• Choose a quiet, private spot where you feel safe.

• Bring a blanket, water, tissues—whatever helps you feel grounded.

• Put pets in another room and silence notifications on your devices.

Step 2: Set Up Your Devices

• Use a computer or tablet for the video session (a bigger screen helps me track your eyes).

• Place it at eye level and keep it steady—no need to hold it.

• Use a second device (like a phone or iPod) to play the Brainspotting audio track.

Step 3: Prepare Your Audio

• Download or stream a BioLateral Brainspotting track (Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube, orBioLateral Sound).

• Use over-the-ear headphones that let you still hear me clearly.

• Make sure the track plays in stereo (both ears equally) and is set to repeat.

• Keep the volume low—like soft background music.

If you'd prefer to access tracks through my private website, let me know and I’ll send you the password.

Step 4: Gather Helpful Tools

• Sticky notes or a tall object to help mark visual spots.

• A sleep mask or bandana if we’ll be working with one eye at a time.

• Anything that helps you feel cozy and supported.

During the Session

We’ll begin with gentle attunement—checking in with your body and emotions. I’ll guide you to find a “brainspot,” and from there, your system will do the work. You don’t need to talk the whole time. You can pause, breathe, reflect, or simply notice.

I’ll be with you every step—tracking, supporting, and holding space.

This is your space. Your healing. Your turn. Let’s begin—gently, together.
