Deep Brian Reorienting

What is Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)?

A trauma-processing psychotherapy that focuses on tracking the original physiological sequence that occurs when the deep brain is first alerted to a threat or attachment disruption.

What to Expect from DBR Therapy

WHAT IT TREATS

DBR can be used to process both the shock and the emotional components of traumatic or threatening events and interactions. As our understanding of the brain continues to evolve, research shows that unresolved shock can contribute to a cascade of neurobiological responses that underlie many trauma-related symptoms.

HOW IT TREATS

DBR therapy emphasizes noticing and staying with bodily sensations and emotional experiences, rather than cognitively analyzing or recounting the traumatic memory. This bottom-up approach allows the nervous system to process trauma at its source.
