Healing Beyond the Mind: Recovery through Nervous System Regulation

At Vagus Counseling, we use Brainspotting and other somatic therapies to help you heal by working with your nervous system, not just your mind.

Trauma can disrupt the vagus nerve and sympathetic system, affecting your entire body, rethinking the way we treat anxiety, trauma, ADHD and depression. Many clients feel lighter and notice real shifts, less pain, calmer thoughts, better sleep, sometimes after just after a few sessions.

If traditional talk therapy isn’t working, this may be the next best step in your healing journey.

Healing Through Regulation

Experience profound healing through nervous system regulation and somatic therapies for lasting recovery.

Brainspotting

Brainspotting is an advanced EMDR therapeutic technique that uses a person's visual field to access and process unprocessed trauma or emotional experiences. By identifying and maintaining focus on specific eye positions—called “brainspots”—while the client is in a mindful state, it helps release deep-seated neurological patterns. It’s often used to treat PTSD, anxiety, and emotional blocks.

Somatic and Experiential Therapy

Blending Somatic Experiencing to tune into body sensations for regulation. I also draw from Psychodrama therapy, facilitating dialogues between inner parts. This experiential approach fosters deeper self-awareness and embodied healing.

Neurofeedback is a non-invasive brain training technique that uses real-time EEG monitoring of brainwave activity to help individuals learn to regulate their brain function. By providing visual and auditory reward when it senses healthier brain waves.
