Frank Corrigan was a Consultant Psychiatrist in Scotland, UK, from 1985 until 2018: since
then he has been in private practice as a trauma psychotherapist. He trained in EMDR in
1999 and was an accredited consultant with the EMDR Association (UK &Ireland) from 2006
until 2022.
Frank completed Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute (SPI) Trauma Training in September 2010. He has been a trainer in the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) (Schwarz et
al 2016) for the treatment of complex trauma disorders.
Since then, has developed Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)® as a therapeutic modality for the clinical sequelae of early attachment disruptions and for other post-traumatic presentations and now provides trainings internationally in DBR. He was given the Cornelia B Wilbur Award by ISSTD in 2023. He is also an adjunct faculty member of Western University in London, Ontario, Canada.
Frank is the co-author of “Neurobiology and treatment of traumatic dissociation” (Lanius, UF, Paulsen, SL, & Corrigan FM, Springer, New York, 2014) and of “The Comprehensive Resource Model” (Schwarz, L, Corrigan, F, Hull, A, & Raju, R, Routledge, London, 2017). The hypotheses underlying DBR were set out in a paper co-authored with Jessica Christie-Sands in Medical Hypotheses (2020). Preliminary results of a randomized control trial of DBR were published in the European Journal of Psychotraumatology in 2023 (Kearney, BE, Corrigan, FM, Frewen, PA, Nevill S, Harricharan, S, Andrews, K, Jetly, R, McKinnon MC & Lanius RA).
His new book, “Deep Brain Reorienting: Understanding the Neuroscience of Trauma, Attachment Wounding, and DBR Psychotherapy” co-authored by Hannah Young and Jessica Christie Sands will be published in 2025 (Routledge).
