Neurobiology for Trauma- and Brainspotting Therapists

Our thinking is based on the concept that consciousness and its contents are functions of the brain. We have evidence that emotions are expressed by our bodies, and we feel it. Also, we know that trauma literally reshapes body and brain.

What does all this mean for the psychotherapy? Dr. Dr. Damir del Monte brings together startling evidence from neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry to present new insights into how the brain works and what happens in stress, trauma, and pain in body and brain.

He describes the essential role of the limbic system and how changing processes in therapy can be described on a brain level.
