Have you ever wondered how therapy can help untangle the knots of trauma and addiction? In this episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast, host Zach Crouch sits down with Cassie Baker, a therapist specializing in Brain Spotting, to shed light on this innovative treatment.

This method has shown promise in treating conditions like depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. Baker shares a compelling story of a client who, through Brain Spotting, was able to release long-held trauma that had never been addressed before. This episode dives into the science behind Brain Spotting and compares it to other therapies like EMDR and Trauma-Focused CBT. What sets Brain Spotting apart is its flexibility and intuitive nature, making it a unique tool in the therapist's toolkit.
Baker emphasizes the importance of trusting your therapist and being open to exploring uncomfortable sensations to achieve healing. The conversation also touches on the need for more research in this field and the potential Brain Spotting holds for those on the path to recovery. If you're curious about new ways to address underlying trauma and find hope in recovery, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
