"If I sit with a client and trust they're doing exactly what they need to do, I witness them with deep attunement. I track their movements and respond to them. If I embrace uncertainty and don't have assumptions, it's much easier to track the individual and stay present to whatever is emerging in the process. I may not know the details, the story, or the people involved, but I'm aware that something is occurring and their reflexive movement is signaling to me this possibility."

- Cynthia Schwartzberg, regarding the "No Assumptions" Model in Brainspotting, from "The Power of Brainspotting: An International Anthology"

"As the therapist shows that he is attuned with the thought processes, the affections, the rhythm, and the developmental level, the client starts to trust. With trust, survival defenses are loosened and the system enters the growth and healing mode. We continue to train and prepare the brain of the client to orient itself towards an internal view as the environment is safe and supportive."
