Brainspotting Intensive – Idyllwild, California

Date: June 11 - 15, 2026
Place: Idyllwild, California, Keen Camp Road, Mountain Center, CA, 92561

The Brainspotting (BSP) Intensive was devised by David Grand, founder and developer of BSP, to provide the ultimate learning experience for BSP therapists. The registration is capped at 10 participants, and the schedule is five full days. There is an option to include equine-supported sessions for expanded healing and awareness. No horse experience required. All equine work is ground-based and fully supported.

There are ten experientials in the group’s center, with each participant being the therapist once and the client once. Cynthia will sit beside the therapist and personally teach by guiding the therapist in the most attuned, technically advanced, and innovative Brainspotting process.

Afterward, each session is debriefed extensively in the group, which enhances everyone’s learning process. In sum, the Intensive is a master class in developing skills as an advanced clinical BSP therapist. This is also a qualified path to achieving Brainspotting certification, as stated above.
