DOES THIS FEEL FAMILIAR?

You Understand What Is Happening, but You Still Cannot Switch It Off

Anxiety does not always respond to logic. You may know that a situation is safe, that a thought is irrational or that you are overthinking, yet your mind and body continue to react automatically.

01

Anxiety Takes Over

Your mind races, you anticipate the worst or find it difficult to relax, even when nothing is obviously wrong.

02

You Avoid or Overprepare

You put things off, seek reassurance or carefully manage situations to prevent anxiety from taking control.

03

The Same Reactions Return

You may understand where the problem began and have tried coping strategies, but the automatic response keeps returning.

These reactions are not a failure of willpower.

They are learned automatic responses, and that is where BWRT® focuses its work.

A DIFFERENT APPROACH

Working With the Response, Not Just the Thought

You may already understand why you feel anxious or recognise that your reaction is out of proportion. The difficulty is that the response can begin before conscious thought has time to intervene.

BWRT® is a structured psychological process that works with these automatic response patterns. You remain fully conscious and in control, and you do not need to describe painful experiences in extensive detail.

Sessions are tailored to what you are experiencing and what you would like to change.
