Please note: Brainspotting certification protocol requires certifyees to start and end their certification sessions with the same consultant, unless a major rupture or issue occurs. By purchasing this package, you are committing to the full 6 sessions together, and if additional sessions are needed to become fully certified, you will simply do add-on sessions at that time.
