Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)® is a transformational trauma psychotherapy that offers hope of
full recovery as it is not dependent on top-down management of symptoms. DBR accesses the
core of the traumatic experience in a way which tracks the original physiological sequence in the
brainstem, the part of the brain which is rapidly online in situations of danger or attachment
disruption. DBR does not become overwhelming, or lead to dissociation. This allows for the
effective processing of many types of traumatic experiences, including early attachment
traumas. DBR results in shifts in how people see themselves, others, and the world, and
increases in self compassion and reductions in trauma-related cognitive distortions, symptoms,
and Reactions.
