How BWRT eases children’s experiences of death and trauma — Mariette Snyman We are all affected by the death of a loved one, but children can be particularly vulnerable. Clinical psychologist Shelley Hall explains how to support a grieving child and which signs could indicate that professional help is required. Recounting the case of an 8-year-old who witnessed her father s

The Corona pandemic has increased the incidence of anxiety, whether generalised or more specific - such as performance anxiety.

Clinical social worker Morag Scordilis uses case studies to illustrate how young children, teenagers and adults can benefit from BWRT® and why it is a fast, cost-effective solution.

In ep. 7 of the weekly podcast series Calm, Clear & Helpful Morag describes

- what anxiety is, when it plays a vital role and when it becomes overwhelming
- how a child who seems difficult or rude may be experiencing acute anxiety
- how children can be helped to feel at ease during therapy
- the story of Ella* (11), who feared her dance exams
- the story of Madeline*, Ella’s mom, who needed help regarding a lack of self-esteem
- whether a parent or other person can sit in on BWRT® sessions
- Morag’s three best tips on calming ourselves down: easy to use, free, and based on advances in neuroscience.

BWRT > Changing lives ...
Recent feedback from Annerie Joubert MA, Psych >>
I have just completed another successful level 2 therapy and share my patient’s final comment: “ It’s been completely transformative and BWRT has changed my life! It really has changed the way I feel about myself’
How more rewarding can this get! 🥇

I was going to wait for World Su***de Prevention Day to post this (which happens to be the 10th September by the way) but guess what, su***de and depression don't wait for an awareness day to make themselves known. For those of us who have been robbed of the chance to make a difference to someone we know, or love, the pain can be eternal. With the latest developments in neuroscience and new therapeutic techniques we are changing the horizons for those dealing with the grief and loss, AND for those who see a perpetual dark hole as a result of trauma, anxiety and depression.
But prevention and early detection is ALWAYS first prize.
Get help, seek help, never be afraid to call a friend.
Take care and be safe.

Non-compliant patients behaving badly - Rafiq Lockhat I often see patients referred by their physicians and cardiologists after suffering a heart attack or having undergone open-heart surgery because their doctors are at their wits' end about how to enforce post-operation treatment compliance
