Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) Therapy Healing at Sky Therapies

Trauma isn’t just stored in your thoughts, it lives in your body, your nervous system, and the deep, instinctive parts of your brain. Even when you understand your past logically, you may still feel stuck, reactive, overwhelmed, or “on edge” without knowing why.

If you’ve experienced attachment trauma, emotional neglect, shock trauma, chronic stress, or persistent patterns that feel out of your control, your system may still be trying to protect you long after the danger is gone.

At Sky Therapies in Ontario, we offer Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), a groundbreaking, neuroscience-based therapy designed to reach the earliest layers of trauma stored in the brainstem and autonomic nervous system.

DBR helps you heal where trauma begins before thoughts, before emotions, before you even have words.

You deserve relief. Your body deserves ease. And healing is possible.

    • Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)

    What isDeep Brain Reorienting (DBR) Therapy


    Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) is a groundbreaking therapeutic approach that focuses on healing the underlying neurological and psychological causes of chronic pain, trauma, and emotional distress. Unlike traditional therapy techniques, DBR recognizes that the brain plays a central role in how we experience pain and emotions. By using gentle, scientifically-backed techniques, DBR helps “reorient” the brain’s processing of distressing memories, pain signals, and emotional triggers.

    At its core, DBR works by targeting the brain’s processing pathways and reprogramming how it responds to pain and trauma. This therapy is based on the understanding that the brain’s response to pain and emotional distress often becomes “stuck” in a loop, where the brain is constantly re-triggering stress and pain signals. DBR helps break that cycle and rewire the brain’s responses, providing lasting relief.

    DBR combines elements of trauma therapy, brain science, and somatic approaches to healing, making it a powerful tool for those who have not found lasting relief through more traditional forms of therapy or treatment.
    • DBR Work

    How Does DBR Work?


    DBR helps you access trauma at the point of its creation:
    the initial orienting reflex—a small, subtle tension that the body forms when something feels threatening, overwhelming, or unsafe.

    🌿 1. Orienting tension

    Your therapist helps you notice the tiny physical sensation that arises when your nervous system remembers a difficult experience.

    🌿 2. Deeper layers emerge naturally

    As the body tracks this tension, underlying emotions, memories, and unmet attachment needs rise gently to the surface without overwhelm.

    🌿 3. The shock resolves

    The brain has a chance to process the original rupture or shock response so it no longer drives your reactions.

    🌿 4. The system resets

    Your nervous system learns that you’re safe now, allowing protection patterns to soften and new emotional capacity to grow.

    DBR does not require reliving trauma, telling the story in detail, or experiencing intense emotional flooding. The process is slow, titrated, and deeply respectful of your system.
    • Expectations

    What is DBR for ?

    Relational trauma and abandonment wounds

    Medical or shock trauma

    Chronic pain linked to trauma

    • Benefit

    Who Can Benefit from DBR?

    DBR can be beneficial for individuals dealing with a wide range of emotional and physical challenges. Some of the conditions and struggles that DBR can address include:

    • Chronic Pain:
      If you’ve been living with unexplained or chronic pain, DBR can help reprocess the pain signals your brain is sending, potentially offering significant relief.
    • Trauma and PTSD:
      DBR is especially effective for those dealing with the effects of trauma. It helps rewire the brain’s response to traumatic memories, allowing for healing and emotional release.
    • Anxiety and Stress:
      Chronic stress and anxiety can be a result of an overactive stress response in the brain. DBR helps to calm this response and restore emotional balance.
    • Depression:
      DBR can help address the root causes of depression by reorienting how the brain processes negative emotions and past pain.
    • Emotional Dysregulation:
      If you struggle with emotional overwhelm or difficulty managing your emotions, DBR can help you develop better emotional regulation skills and greater self-awareness.
    • Unexplained Symptoms:
      DBR can also be effective for individuals dealing with symptoms that are difficult to explain, such as fatigue, tension, and emotional numbness. These symptoms are often linked to unresolved trauma or emotional distress that DBR can help resolve.
