Other Trainings
It takes many Brainspotting-trained clinicians to help with our trainings, and we couldn't do it without them. While the clinicians below and their classes aren't associated with Pacific Brainspotting Trainings, we do want to share them with you and hope you'll check them out. Each Specialty Brainspotting Trainer is listed below with a list of their classes, consults, or other offerings.
Please contact the appropriate person regarding each class and not PBT. Thank you!
