David Grand on how Brainspotting and EMDR are different:
“Brainspotting makes use of fixed eye gaze on relevant eye positions. EMDR uses eye movements (smooth pursuit, not saccades).
Eye fixation and eye movements are opposites.

Brainspotting is frame-based, EMDR is protocol-based.
Brainspotting attempts to bypass the neocortex to directly access the subcortex. EMDR accesses the neocortex with it’s cognitions (negative and positive) and cognitive interweaves.

EMDR is an AIP (Adaptive Information Processing) Model, Brainspotting does not.
Brainspotting is articulated by the Neuroexperiential Model, EMDR is not.
Brainspotting is a developmental model (generational, intrauterine, birth, preverbal) EMDR is explicitly not. #healing

Currently accepting clients for online sessions and a few select in-person sessions. Reach out and get started. It’s not easy work but what we need to get to a better place. The place I believe we all should have been in from the start. #healing #bsp #attunement

“No matter how much insight and understanding we develop the rational brain is basically impotent to talk the emotional brain out of its own reality.”

@jkenney Yet there are no minimum standards of competence, ethics and safety for the Addiction Counsellors treating vulnerable Albertans. This is unacceptable. #SupportRegulationForCounselling & open the CCTA. acta-alberta.ca/show-your-su…

Albertans are unsafe due to the lack of regulation for mental health & addiction counselling. The gov't has had 3 years to approve the regulation. Tell the government to stop stalling proclamation. acta-alberta.ca/show-your-su… #SupportRegulationForCounselling cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/…

Did you know that anyone can call themselves a counsellor in #Alberta? This is unsafe for Albertans receiving #mentalhealth and #addiction services. Tell the government to stop stalling regulation. Go to acta-alberta.ca/show-your-su…. #SupportRegulationForCounselling

Regulation of mental health and addiction counselling will give Albertans more autonomy and choice in selecting a provider that is the right ‘fit’ for them. Show your support for regulation: acta-alberta.ca/show-your-su…. #SupportRegulationForCounselling
