Tech Lead
Birmingham, AL
Birmingham, AL is a beautiful, small city in the south. There are many local places to eat and place to explore. The hotel and office for the intensive is 2 minutes from downtown Birmingham and downtown Homewood, a small town just outside of the city filled with places to walk, boutiques to shop in and local restaurants and coffee shops. If time allows, Erica recommends spending a day exploring Homewood if you are traveling in from out of town.
A few details
Product Manager
Our experiences of trauma vary widely and each experience is unique to each person. While one person may experience an event as traumatic, another person may not. During the intensive, you may notice some somatic or psychological discomfort during brainspotting sessions-- this is common and usually temporary. Erica works with each person to mitigate this risk and respects requests for breaks or rest throughout the experience. While Erica cannot guarantee that your experience will be without discomfort, she can promise that you'll find a quiet, validating and comfortable environment in which to process. Each day is scheduled with a 2-hour lunch break. There is a beautiful walking area with picnic tables between the hotel and the office for you to enjoy during this time.

Initial Consultation
The cost of the intensive includes 2-hours of online consultation prior to the intensive. These consultations are scheduled between 2 and 3 weeks in advance and are designed to maximize the therapeutic space during the intensive. As you and Erica get to know each other during these initial meetings, you will complete a trauma assessment, intake and create goals for your time in-person.
​
Intensive Scheduling

What if I discover that Brainspotting isn't a good fit?
If we get into a brainspotting session and you decide you do not want to continue, Erica is trained in a number of trauma-informed modalities that she can incorporate into the intensive. These include internal family systems, somatic work, expressive arts therapy, trauma-informed mindfulness, experiential therapy and sand-tray. You are always free to request that we shift gears during the intensive.
