SUMMARY:Brainspotting Intensive
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe Brainspotting (BSP) Intensive is an advanced training devised by David Grand, founder and developer of BSP to provide the ultimate learning experience for Brainspotting practitioners. The registration is capped at 10 participants, and the schedule is five full consecutive days. Come to an unforgettable, transformative healing and learning environment in Melanie’s home.\nThere are ten experientials in the center of the group, with each participant being the therapist once and the client once. Melanie will sit next to the therapist and personally teach by guiding the therapist in the most attuned, technically advanced, and innovative Brainspotting process. Afterward, each session is debriefed extensively in the group, and this enhances everyone’s learning process. In sum, the Intensive is a masterclass in developing skills as an advanced clinical BSP therapist. This can also be a qualified path to achieving Brainspotting certification, provided the Brainspotter has 50 documented Brainspotting sessions and completion of Phase 2, and one of the following additional trainings: Phase 3, 4, 5, or Master Class.\nEvent Details\nPrerequisite: Completion of live in-person or online Phase 1 and Phase 2 trainings.\nSchedule: The intensive program begins on Monday, and we will be working each day from 9 am -6:00 pm.
