Brainspotting & Parts Phase 2: Flourishing Specialty Workshop

SEMINAR OVERVIEW

Brainspotting & Parts: Phase 2 – Flourishing
A 3-Day Brainspotting Specialty Training for Inner Harmony, Embodied Expression, and Whole-Self Flourishing

This 3-day Brainspotting Specialty Training is designed for clinicians who have foundational experience with Brainspotting & Parts Work: Posttraumatic Growth, and are ready to deepen their skill set through the lens of flourishing. Rather than centering trauma resolution or symptom relief, this workshop focuses on supporting clients in fully inhabiting their innate creativity, purpose, leadership, and joy.

Participants will learn how to attune to Parts of the system often left unexplored, those that carry vision, lightness, power, and creativity, and how to work with the nervous system to increase tolerance for positive states. Using the Neuroexperiential Model of Brainspotting, we will explore how healing moves into thriving, and ultimately into flourishing, a dynamic, relational process of living in alignment with one’s fullest expression.

Through a blend of didactic teaching, live demonstrations, expressive arts, somatic practices, and small group practicums, the training will guide you through the essential components of Parts work for flourishing:

• Day 1: Gathering the Inner System & Meeting the Flourishing Self
  Discover Parts that hold creative energy, clarity, and visionary qualities, and begin building trust with parts who may fear this growth.
• Day 2: Expanding Capacity for Joy, Visibility, and Purpose
  Strengthen your tools to work with ambivalence, unconscious loyalties, and the nervous system’s natural resistance to “more.”
• Day 3: Rooting into Sustainable Flourishing & Inner Harmony
  Anchor the experience of flourishing through ritual, ceremony, somatic expression, Parts collaboration, and Brainspotting work with aligned wholeness.

This highly experiential training embraces the non-linear, emergent wisdom of Parts Work while staying rooted in Brainspotting’s Dual Attunement Frame. Participants will leave with an expanded map for guiding clients from surviving → thriving → flourishing, and a deeper sense of how to support internal collaboration with compassion and creativity.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

1. Define flourishing as a living, relational rhythm within the internal Parts system, and explain how it differs from symptom resolution or trauma repair.

2. Identify internal Parts that hold visionary, creative, and life-affirming qualities, and describe how to foster trust with them using Brainspotting, expressive arts and somatic presence.

3. Demonstrate how to use the Dual Attunement Frame and follow the Tail of the Comet to support Parts-led expansion into purpose, joy, and inner alignment.

4. Describe common sources of protective resistance around flourishing (e.g. unconscious loyalties, historical burdens, mission roles) and how to work with them with Brainspotting.

5. Map a client’s internal system in relation to flourishing, emphasizing Parts collaboration, role transformation, and creative reimagining of self.

6. Apply Brainspotting techniques that invite next-level expression from visionary, leader, or joy-oriented Parts, while tracking nervous system regulation.

7. Develop strategies for helping clients co-create daily rhythms, rituals, and ceremonies that support sustainable well-being and authentic Parts collaboration.

8. Assess and support the client’s ability to tolerate positive states such as joy, peace, pleasure, and rest from a neurophysiological lens.
