Raymond

Mr Raymond Nettmann

Registered Counselor

Raymond is a BWRT® practitioner which is an innovative and exciting new therapy, creating long-lasting results.

About Me

As a Registered Counsellor, I am a BWRT® practitioner. This innovative and exciting therapy aims to create long-lasting results for clients seeking profound change. I offer a collaborative space to explore your concerns. We can use this effective method to help you achieve deep, positive shifts. Clients often find BWRT® particularly beneficial for addressing long-standing issues and building lasting resilience.

Approach

Rather than relying on long, exploratory sessions alone, I use focused, rapid-pattern work to shift reactions and memories at their source. In my Johannesburg practice and via secure online sessions in English, we set a clear pace—brief check-ins, concentrated in-session interventions, and short reflective tasks between meetings. Sessions feel collaborative and goal-directed: we map your starting point, target unhelpful responses, then use precise techniques to reframe how you respond so you feel more present and capable. Those facing anxiety, trauma or persistent fears often find this way of working helpful.
