Welcome to the BIPOC Brainspotting Phase 2 Training registration page!
*Prerequisite: Successful completion of Brainspotting Phase 1 training is required before registering for Phase 2.
Brainspotting Training includes lecture, live demonstration, and dyadic practicums in which participants have the the opportunity to fully experience Brainspotting as a client and practitioner. Due to the highly experiential nature of the training, it is critical that all participants are fully present for the entire training. Training will be held 9:00am-6:00pm CDT each day. There will be breaks in morning and afternoon, and a 75 minute lunch break daily. Lunch is on your own.
In-Person Location: The Northside Epicenter, 705 N 42nd Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55412
The parking lot is located in the back of the building. The building entrance is on N. 42nd Ave; just inside the door is an elevator and staircase. The training space is on the 2nd level.
THIS TRAINING IS FOR BIPOC HEALING PROFESSIONALS ONLY.
To maximize your experience, consider the following:
*Reduce your other obligations before and after the training.

*For in person participants: Bring a cushion or other supportive objects in case you want to sit on the floor or otherwise make yourself comfortable.
*Have food and snacks prepared in advance (or a plan for where you want to have lunch)

Do whatever supports you to bring your most curious and open self to this training. Remember to have your pointer and biolateral music.
During Brainspotting Trainings you will have the opportunity to both witness and practice live Brainspotting sessions. This teaching is highly experiential and you may experience activation during the process. I encourage you to engage in meaningful self-care throughout the training and reach out to any of the facilitators for support. Additionally, please remember that the practicums are for practice purposes and while healing may occur, we encourage you to focus on issues that are well within your system's window of tolerance.
This training is approved by Brainspotting Trainings, LLC and meets the Brainspotting Phase 1 requirement towards Brainspotting certification.
Trainer: Linnea Swanson, Psy.D., M.A., LMFT.
