This is not based on medical evidence or neurology and seems questionable at best and without a doubt a pseudo "science."

If you feel your T is a net positive, then by all means continue but brainspotting, in my view, is right up there with BigFoot and the Mayan calendar. Caveat emptor
Completely agree. Readig that website (the whole website is a big redflag in its own) it's obvious this is all quackery. They present it as a science (scientific vocabulary) but there are no evidence and it's all " we believe". Anytime a "treatment" is presented as a wonderful cure for all, alarm bells should go off. If it was so life-changing everybody would have heard of it: in the media, newspapers, everywhere. And yet I had never heard of it until today. Personally I would be wary of any therapist who advertizes for this nonsense (actually I would be wary of any therapist period).
