Brainspotting Consulting

Dr. Adam O’Brien was an Approved Brainspotting Consultant and Certified Brainspotting Therapist until 2025 when he let these credentials expire. What this means is that consultations with Dr. Adam will not count for Brainspotting International’s increasing compliance and liability requirements.

He holds a PhD in Addiction Studies and is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor in New York State. He is located in Chatham (Albany/Hudson area) where he maintains a private practice. He has experience working with addictions (chemical and behavioral), C-PTSD, dissociative disorders (DDNOS and DID), domestic violence, victims of crime, first responders, veterans, children, adolescents, and adults. Adam has regularly been doing trauma resolution “intensives” sessions and is an excellent resource on this up and coming service. He has agency, EAP, intensive outpatient, community-based settings, and residential experience. He specializes in preverbal, intergenerational, historical/cultural, medical, and spiritual abuse, psychedelic integration, and harm reduction. He also has excellent experience with the 12-steps, recovery, integrative medicine, loss, anger, and adoption. He is well-versed in Ego State Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Psychedelic Care, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Progressive Counting (PC), and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR).
