Gentle Trauma Therapy for Attachment Wounds
Deep Brain Reorienting
Deep Brain Reorienting is a body-based therapy developed by Dr. Frank Corrigan. It helps individuals heal trauma by accessing the brain’s earliest responses to threat or attachment disruption. It is a gentle, body-based therapy that helps individuals heal from trauma by accessing the brain’s earliest, automatic responses to threat or attachment disruption. This often occurs through subtle sensations like a flicker of eye tension or a shift in posture.
Healing Developmental and Relational Trauma
Many clients with developmental or relational trauma carry wounds from early relationships—relationships that felt unsafe, inconsistent, or emotionally unavailable. These early experiences often leave lasting imprints on the nervous system.
To help address this, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) was developed to treat attachment shock. DBR offers a way to resolve these deep-rooted patterns without needing to recall or relive the original events.
Deep Brain Reorienting is Beneficial for Individuals Who:
- Feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected in other forms of therapy
- Have a history of early attachment wounds or developmental trauma
- Struggle to articulate or recall their traumatic experiences
By working at the brainstem level—where survival patterns are stored—DBR allows trauma to be processed gently. This happens without reactivating overwhelming emotions or requiring detailed memory recall.
Healing Developmental and Relational Trauma
Many clients with developmental or relational trauma carry wounds from early relationships—relationships that felt unsafe, inconsistent, or emotionally unavailable. Early negative relational experiences often leave lasting imprints on the nervous system. DBR offers a way to access and resolve these deep-rooted patterns without needing to recall or relive the original events.
Deep Brain Reorienting helps your nervous system recognize and release the original shock and unmet need. Thanks to DBR’s gentle approach, there’s no need to revisit or relive the trauma. Clients often find this process deeply calming, empowering, and transformative. It is beneficial for those who’ve felt unseen, unheard, or emotionally dysregulated for much of their lives.
A Calmer Alternative to EMDR
Many clients with developmental or relational trauma carry wounds from early relationships—relationships that felt unsafe, inconsistent, or emotionally unavailable. These early experiences often leave lasting imprints on the nervous system.
Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) was developed to treat early relational wounds—also known as attachment shock. Deep Brain Reorienting offers a way to resolve these deep-rooted patterns without needing to recall or relive the original events.
