Trevor Wales & BWRT® Cornwall - Helping improve peoples lives person by person.
What is BWRT ® and how much does a programme of sessions cost?
BWRT ®’ stands for ‘Brain Working Recursive Therapy®’, a model of psychology and psychotherapy created by UK professional therapist, Terence Watts, MCGI.
BrainWorking Recursive Therapy (BWRT ®) is a revolution in the world of complementary therapy and self - development. It is a unique talking therapy like no other, one that gets results, based upon the latest scientific and neurological discoveries about the way the human brain works.
BWRT® is a thoroughly modern methodology that draws on the latest research into the understanding of the human brain and the way our patterns of thought affect our wellbeing, and how those thought patterns affects our moods, behaviour, emotions, and actions.
BWRT ® empowers people to create positive changes in their wellbeing and emotional state with all sorts of life’s difficulties from the minor troubles, aliments and challenges of everyday life all the way up to many of life’s very serious issues.
It has a track record of being very useful for helping people to effectively manage a wide range of presenting challenges and issues. Just taking a look at the testimonial content on my testimonial pages and the main BWRT® website from the many clients who have benefited will readily bear this point out. Find out more at www.bwrt.org
There are many different styles of therapy available these days but there is nothing else like this one. There simply is no other therapy in the world that is the same as BWRT ®.
It is a content free form of Psychotherapy that does not involve hypnosis or trance states and can work with a wide spectrum of people and is also well suited to people where due to certain health conditions such as epilepsy and serious heart conditions or the very early stages of pregnancy hypnosis could be unsuitable.
How much does a programme of sessions cost?
The fee structure of BWRT is exactly the same hourly rate as Hypnotherapy and for information please refer to the fees page.
* An initial consultation of thirty minutes is just £47.50. If you then decide to book a series of BWRT appointments following your consultation, a full refund of your consultation fee will be given off of your second session fee following your first two hour discounted full Fact - finding appointment.
There are three levels of BWRT. Levels 1- 3
Each level denotes the complexity of a presenting issue. I am qualified to work with levels 1 & 2. For information on level 3 work which deals with physical issues please refer to the main BWRT website at www.bwrt.org.
How do you determine what level of therapy needs to be used?
When a client comes to see me for a consultation to work with BWRT once an outline of the presenting issue is presented there is a simple and highly effective set of questions that determines an accurate assessment of the BWRT level we need to work with for effective therapy to take place.
Level one BWRT work is bookable session by session and is charged hourly at £95.00 per hour.
Many of life's presenting issues are resolvable using level 1 work, from the minor irritations of life to the fairly complex. A typical level 1 session, beyond the initial two hour intake session, which is charged at the introductory discounted rate of £142.50, is 90 minutes and charged at £142.50 per session.
Most level 1 work is typically completed within an intake session and one to two additional sessions. There are occasions where more than two sessions may be needed depending upon the severity of the issue being presented by the client.
Level two sessions are only bookable in block sessions of an intake session, and five 90 - minute sessions, which must be paid in full in advance.
Level 2 work is for the more in depth & challenging presenting issues of life. There are many kinds of deep complex issues that have been resolved using level 2 work, issues such as Addictions, Poor self worth, Destructive Anger and so on.
I have worked with clients with level 2 work who have told me that they have had issues sometimes for many years that were just untouchable by other therapies that they worked with, but, discovering BRWT was a turning point and a game changer.
Why Level 2 sessions are only bookable in block sessions with payment in full in advance for the therapy programme.
This is because level two work is typically very complex and in depth, and for the therapy to stand a good potential of success, a firm commitment needs to be made to your success and see the programme through.
Please note there are no exceptions to this rule.
* Level 2 BWRT work will only be booked upon the understanding that the client is willing to invest in themselves and agree to the terms by paying for an intake session and a block of five therapy sessions. Before commencing work, payment must be made in full.
The success rates of level 2 work is very high, but, please note that depending upon each individual case that a recommendation can sometimes be required for further sessions which may be in the format of WSN Counselling, SymbioDynamics or Hypnotherapy.
A level 2 programme will cost you £855.00
As above in Level 1 appointments, if you have previously booked and paid for the initial 30 - minute consultation for £47.50, the fee will be deducted from your advance payment of £855.00 and will therefore be charged at £807.50
BWRT and how it works is centered around the discovery made by research scientist Benjamin Libet in the 1980's of how our human brains process information and our awareness of it. Libet was conducting experiments on free will and the question of whether we actually have free will or whether free will was just an illusion.
Unlike many other modern therapies, it is a totally confidential therapy that does not require you to reveal your personal or private secrets to your therapist. It allows a ‘core of privacy’ so that you do not have to divulge anything you would rather not talk about – so, you don’t need to discuss intimate details of your life with your therapist unless you want to. All the therapist needs to know is what’s not working in your life and you won’t be asked to talk about your sex-life, childhood, relationships, or anything else you would rather keep private and it is all carried out in a completely conscious state.
It's totally safe and sometimes needs only an initial intake session and a one or two sessions to resolve even apparently impossible problems - and therapy can be conducted with certain issues by video links such as Skype/Zoom or Facetime or even phone, so if you have difficulty in traveling or talking in a face-to-face situation, this therapy can still help you- Sometimes, shyness or embarrassment can prevent an individual from improving their life because they just can't contemplate the idea of a face-to-face session with a therapist... But now that fear can be consigned to the past and you won’t even need to travel from your home.
It uses a totally logical, practical and down-to-earth working method and for it to succeed only needs you to know what you want to change in your life-In fact, the practitioner only needs to know how you feel and how you would prefer to feel instead.
If you're looking for therapy, whatever your difficulty, it’s highly likely that this highly efficient relatively new therapy can help to set you totally free from it - so if you know just how you would like to be and feel but just haven’t been able to get to it, then BWRT® can help you find it quickly.
It’s not important if you’re just starting out in the world or have already been ‘around the block’ more than few times - no matter what time of life you’re in, BWRT® can help you actually choose the way you want to feel about almost anything. It is a fact that most people shouldn't really have problems. It's also a fact that most people do... But BWRT® means they no longer have to put up with them and 'just get on with it'.
BWRT® Explained. How does it work?
Our brain holds eighty-six billion neurons, and we have neuroplasticity within those structures. Our brain reroutes and assimilates, a bit like google and algorithms, it works out what is relevant and most prominent.
These patterns shift all the time, but anything linked to survival may appear higher, and so we can constantly get what we do not want, and this can become a limiting pattern, affecting our emotional wellbeing and life balance with some situations, which over time can become counterproductive and can affect our health adversely.
For e.g., patterns of what is termed a general anxiety disorder where there is no apparent specific reason for anxiety, where anything and everything can make a person feel anxious and which may trigger random panic attacks for no known reason. These are issues that can be a constant difficulty that affects our quality of life. (N.B. Sometimes general anxiety disorder may be caused as a result of an underlying and possibly undiagnosed medical condition. In the case of General Anxiety Disorder, we always write to a client's GP before working)
There are too specific direct fears, phobias, and anxieties that are linked to certain events that are upcoming in our future timeline and which connect back to earlier uncomfortable experiences. Things like a fear of flying, lifts, escalators, being in a confined space or being surrounded by too many people, fears of injections, fear of the dentist, and specific anxieties such as exams, driving test nerves, interviews, public speaking, separation anxiety. The list is quite a long list, and these are just a few.
The few examples of the issues I have cited are linked to our survival and are reactions to old past events, events that might carry no future threat at all, but when they happened those events triggered a cascade of uncomfortable feelings and reactions, typically including fear and panic and so the brain then stores that as a template for future comparison and possible reaction to, and it only needs to have similar matches as far as that part our brain is concerned which reacts to threats.
As soon as the brain finds a match or near match it leaps into action and all we can do is to wait for that anxiety to pass which seems like a lifetime ….
Our brain (the part of the brain that we call the reptilian complex because of its evolutionary age and how it functions, that part which deals with reaction and instinct, fight, flight, freeze,) thinks it is helping.
Its intent is not to cause harm, but it triggers an unwelcome emotional and sometimes physical response that can cause significant distress.
It is this limiting pattern that BWRT works with to resolve these past reactions and events, helping people contending with difficult emotional reactions to fear, panic, anxiety, etc, to become free of those reactions. You can think of it as a reset.
We can of course do this naturally; it is a natural process with no magic wand needed because it is a simple and normal part of brain storing and programming.
The issue is that most people think they cannot find the resolution, so they look and reroute back to the old pattern, essentially thinking all the time of what they do not want which has the very strong and undesirable effect of strengthening that bond within the neural pathways, making the problem worse.
The guided therapeutic process of BWRT helps to break those old patterns of feelings and behaviours and replace them with what a person experiencing those adverse emotional stimuli wants to feel instead, and to the many clients who have experienced this, it very often feels like something truly astonishing just happened, especially when they had already perhaps resigned themselves to the possibility of always having the issue even though they don’t want it. As a BWRT ® Therapist, I have often seen BWRT® clients break into a wide smile, or simply laugh as they realise how totally different, they immediately feel.
BWRT is a guided way to help you with what your brain does naturally. It is indeed possible to reverse a process and there are many examples that can prove this. Fading memory over the long term and its later emotional reaction to the event is just one example to illustrate how we are working with a natural process.
BWRT just happens to give us a therapeutic mechanism to make it happen faster.
It is neuroscience, - no magic needed,- people may feel like something magical happened, but it is a very succinct process that enhances and restores what the brain does naturally.
A BWRT® therapist is specially trained through a very exacting training and evaluation process to simplify this process into what for most presenting issues may be just a few sessions.
BWRT ® is not just about dealing with anxieties, fears, and phobias. It is so much more and is an amazing therapeutic vehicle for great potential for positive change to lead people to create the lives they want to live.
Consider this. When you know you want to do something, for e.g., like going on a diet, or taking a qualification course that demands time, effort, discipline, and study, or quitting a bad habit, you just get on and do it. You may start well and find early success, and you may be full of enthusiasm at first and then …. You plateau and the results do not come, and you may then feel very frustrated and anxious, and then become a victim to dichotomous thinking, procrastination, and low motivation, and you may not even understand why. So, you decide to take a break.
If you drop that action or project and try to rekindle it, and no matter how hard you really try, you find that your best efforts may make you feel you cannot quite make it happen, feeling as if there is a glass ceiling or invisible barrier in the way. You may wonder what it was that helped you find that early success so easily, and you may struggle to understand why you now cannot find what seemed so simple the first time.
All of the above and more, are just a few examples of the types of issues that are exactly what BWRT was designed for, breaking through the barriers, resolving stuck issues, and finding success…And BWRT has been helping many, many, people globally since 2014 to experience permanent lasting change, with what the records show, has proven to be an extremely low recidivism rate.
Since its introduction in 2014, it has gained a reputation in the world of therapy for being a highly effective, efficient way of working with people helping them to create rapid, long-lasting changes. Below are some links to success stories from my website and features in the national press.
This testimonial is from a client I worked with in 2016 with BWRT who suffered from a very complex anxiety issue that kept them housebound for three years.

Success for a client with a lifetime Dental Phobia, taken from my Cornwall -BWRT Facebook page.
Cornwall BWRT shared a post. 8 December 2017
I have just received a further update from a client I treated for Dental Phobia almost a year ago. When this client came to see me they had never been to see a dentist in over twenty-plus years. The phobia was a learned response from a parent who had a morbid dread of blood and visiting a dentist. In just one session of BWRT® (Brain Working Recursive Therapy) that phobia was banished for good.
Since then my client has gone to visit the dentist on at least three or four occasions and when they do they usually update me. Here is the most recent received today.
"Hi, Trevor went to the dentist again yesterday and had two veneers done. An hour & a half in the chair. Hope you have a great Christmas. Best wishes. D "

A Standout Successful BWRT® case history from 2016
In December 2016 I worked successfully with a client with BWRT® over the Christmas break who contacted me presenting with very high levels of anxiety over an exam that they were due to take in early January 2017.
My client had embarked upon their chosen career path in early 2015 involving intensive training and making a major lifestyle change in moving from one end of the country to another which was in itself a huge upheaval.
So far my client had done extremely well in their various stages of studies and assessments, however, come the day of the exam it was a whole different story......The reason for their heightened state of anxiety when they contacted me soon became very clear. My client had sat the exam twice previously within a short space of time and although they were thoroughly proficient and knowledgeable, when it came to the day, the anxiety and nerves they were experiencing simply got the better of them.
They explained how because of those exam nerves they found themselves becoming even more anxious during the second exam and went on to explain how this third exam that they were due to sit was so vitally important to them as it was completely pivotal to establishing the security of their professional career in the public sector.
The upcoming exam due to be re-taken was an oral knowledge-based exam taken in front of a panel of examiners and was their last chance to pass for their placement to be confirmed in their chosen career role.
As there was very little time available to work with when I was approached to see if I could help them I knew I need something rather unique, special, and fast and so after a brief discussion I decided on BWRT to help in session 1 with the anxiety and hypnotherapy for learning and confidence in session 2.
During the Therapy, pre-talk my client had presented with a considerably heightened emotional anxiety state of a high 9 on a scale of 1-10 with one being low and 10 high. When asked just how important to them passing this exam was and how might they feel if they were unsuccessful they understandably became quite emotional and it was very important to fire that response up to make certain that it was the right emotion we were going to work with
In a session of approximately one hour working with the BWRT ® process my client’s anxiety levels virtually disappeared completely to a figure so far below 1 that they couldn’t quantify it.
When asked to access the original emotive state my client was unable to, remarking, that it was almost as if it has never happened.
A day or so afterward I wrote a post about the BWRT® session I had run on my Facebook page being certain to protect anonymity and privacy, however as my client was enjoying the rest of their Christmas break with family and friends I was unable to share much information at the time.
What follows is an update when I returned to run a hypnotherapy session.
One week later when I went back to work on reinforcement of confidence and learning when my client was asked to test the old emotive state there was still nothing there. They simply remarked again that it is as if nothing has happened and that they still feel very calm and relaxed about the forthcoming exam. The more I work with BWRT ® the more convinced I am that it is a remarkable therapy.
Update as of 11th Jan 2016.
I am very pleased to report that as of the morning of the 11th Jan I received a message from my client advising me that they had passed their exam earlier in the morning thereby securing their role in their public service vocation. In the message to me, my client observed that there was virtually no trace of panic or anxiety whatsoever. It was very nice to receive a message of thanks and I look forward to being able to post a testimonial in my client's own words very soon.
