Laura Smith shares about her journey from corporate life into BWRT practice through the Newcomer pathway.

Laura first experienced BWRT as a client nearly three years ago. The impact was significant enough to inspire her to train in 2024, despite having no prior therapy background. Shortly after qualifying, a breast cancer diagnosis paused her plans yet BWRT became a key support during her treatment and recovery.

Now back in good health, Laura is building her practice, Mind Reset BWRT, working with anxiety, phobias, imposter syndrome, performance anxiety, midlife women, and young people from the “anxious generation.”

This conversation explores starting BWRT from scratch, building confidence as a new practitioner, and using personal adversity as professional strength.

In this episode of the BWRT Practice Podcast, I’m joined by June Hale, one of the earliest BWRT practitioners and a senior figure within the BWRT community. With a background in psychotherapy and hypnotherapy and many years of clinical experience, June also serves as Head of Supervision and Assessments for the International BWRT Institute.

This episode is both professional and personal. June shares her own experience of using BWRT during one of the most challenging periods of her life: caring for her husband while he lived with Parkinson’s Disease and Lewy Body Dementia. She reflects on the emotional toll of long-term caregiving and how BWRT supported her in regulating her internal responses, even when the external circumstances could not be changed.

Our conversation explores what is possible with BWRT in situations of chronic stress, ongoing responsibility, and long-term trauma, offering valuable insights for practitioners working with carers, complex trauma, and clients facing unchangeable life conditions.

This episode is especially relevant for BWRT practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of how the process works beyond symptom resolution, and how it can support resilience, stability, and emotional clarity in the most difficult contexts.

Children and teenagers today are facing increasing emotional, psychological, and social pressures, yet mental health support systems often remain fragmented, underfunded, or reactive rather than preventative. Sam Berriman is a registered BWRT practitioner and shares with us how she works with children and teenagers and why we need to invest in better mental health and wellbeing for the kids of today. 

Sam is an experienced teacher and saw first-hand the challenges the school system faces, the challenges that teachers and kids need to navigate nowadays. 

Having experienced the effectiveness of BWRT herself, Sam now advocates for early, appropriate mental health support and works directly with young people to help them regulate, process, and build resilience in an increasingly demanding world.

Today's guest is Scotty Butcher, a physiotherapist and advanced BWRT Practitioner based in Canada.  Scotty brings a strong mind-body perspective to pain work, blending neuroscience, emotional regulation, and BWRT to support clients with persistent pain.

We discuss how the brain’s survival system (the reptilian complex) plays a major role in chronic pain, why many pain responses come from the nervous system rather than structural issues, and how BWRT® can help shift these automatic patterns at a deep level.

If you’re a therapist, coach, physio, BWRT practitioner, or simply curious about pain science, this conversation gives a clear look at how BWRT® can be used in rehabilitation to create meaningful emotional and physical change.

Laura McDonald, a BWRT® practitioner and trainer from Ireland shares how she uses BrainWorking Recursive Therapy to help athletes and everyday clients perform at their absolute best.

Laura has worked with footballers, runners, tennis players, and high-jumpers — helping them overcome performance anxiety, self-doubt, and the mental blocks that hold them back.
