🌟🌟Good News: 14 CEUs approved by the Rhode Island Mental Health Counselors Association (RIMHCA) for BOTH Workshops.
Most chronic pain is generated by the brain rather than by actual tissue damage.
This type of pain is known as Neuroplastic pain and it can be healed.
How? Come join us to learn.
Surprising recent scientific findings and a practical healing frame for chronic pain are ready for you.
You will learn the neuroscience behind chronic pain, how acute pain differs from chronic pain, and how chronic pain can be resolved.
Recent study shows 2 out of 3 chronic pain clients can be pain-free!

Learning Objectives
Participants will understand the defining characteristics of chronic primary pain and how neuroplastic pathways differ from acute structural tissue damage.
Participants will learn how to effectively explain chronic pain mechanisms to clients, offering psychoeducation not as a top-down diagnostic verdict, but as an open invitation for curiosity.
Participants will recognize the critical importance of deeply acknowledging and validating clients' pain as entirely real and profoundly life-altering to help establish a foundation of neurobiological safety.
Participants will explore the subcortical neurobiology of pain chronification, examining how chronic pain pathways physically migrate from sensory circuits into emotional and predictive brain networks over time.
Participants will understand how emotional fuels—such as fear, internal pressure, and hypervigilance—trigger and sustain the brain's neuroplastic alarm system.
Participants will examine the connection between physical pain sensations and a client's internal protective instincts, utilizing a relational, bottom-up tracking process.
Participants will learn how to use brainspots to access, process, and uncouple encapsulated threat responses from active physical pain sensations.
Participants will learn and practice unique setup frames and optimized approaches specifically tailored for addressing chronic primary and neuroplastic pain conditions.
Participants will review fundamental concepts from Brainspotting Phase 1 & 2, including the Neuroexperiential Model of Brainspotting, Uncertainty, Dual Attunement, WAIT, Tail of the Comet, and more.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of Brainspotting 's unique approach to framing--"Mindfully receiving, shaping, and holding the frame with the client."
Chronic pain doesn’t always begin in the body. While it may show up as backaches, neck tension, fibromyalgia, headaches, or repetitive strain, many of these symptoms are now understood to arise from something deeper: the brain’s interpretation of safety and threat. This emerging understanding is called neuroplastic pain—a form of pain that’s real, but reversible.
Pain, at its core, is the body’s way of saying, “Pay attention.” It’s meant to protect us when injury occurs. But sometimes, the brain misreads the signals. It treats harmless sensations as if they were dangerous, sounding alarms where none are needed. In these moments, pain becomes a learned response—a habit of the nervous system rather than a reflection of damage.
This doesn’t mean the pain is imagined. Far from it. Brain scans show clear activity when neuroplastic pain is present. The suffering is genuine. What’s hopeful is this: if the brain can learn pain, it can also unlearn it. With the right support—psychological tools, somatic awareness, emotional processing, and compassionate presence—these patterns can shift. Healing becomes possible, not by denying the pain, but by understanding its source.

Jaegil is a superstar. It has been my pleasure and honor to accompany him on his Brainspotting Journey. From the 1st Jaegil has demonstrated a unique ability to take complex principles and distill them into easy to understand concepts. Now, not only can his consultees benefit from his wisdom but the whole community can be treated to an amazing 2 days where they will experience profound healing while learning a fabulous new way of utilizing Brainspotting to transform both past and current relationships.
Brooke Randolph, Brainspotting Trainer & Author
What a beautiful experience as a participant. Thank you to my follow participants and practice partners. Jaegil Lee is an excellent consultant and workshop facilitator with a great bibliography. I am inspired by his work and I recommend this workshop opportunity!
Deborah Davison Antinori, Brainspotting Trainer & Author
So exciting that Jaegil is sharing his wonderful talents in working with relationships. He often assists Sue Pinco and me in our trainings and has Brainspotting deeply "in his bones" as we like to say! He is so very attuned to the Brainspotting Principles and to his clients, to our trainees and to his consultees and trainees, too!
Such an excellent specialty workshop! Jaegil is so talented, intelligent and sensitive - an excellent teacher! I loved this experience!
Nancy Tung, Brainspotting Trainer
This specialty workshop with Jaegil Lee and the cohort of amazingly intuitive healers was a real treat! It was very moving to watch the demos shedding layers of burden from unresolved relationships. When doing the practicum, receiving much loving energies from the complicated relational other was another profound way to heal! I got so much healing myself!
I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone!
Thank you Jaegil Lee for sharing your wisdom and knowledge!
All Pain is REAL. BUT "pain" can be caused solely by the brain without any tissue or structural damage! is known as Neuroplastic Pain.
