Dr Annemie Peché

Clinical and Neuropsychologist, Neurotherapist, BWRT & Brainspotting Practitioner

I have been in private practice as a Clinical Psychologist since 1982, during which time I also conducted clinical, neuropsychological, and medico-legal assessments. I have been specializing in Neurotherapy (NF) since 2003, which is applicable in a wide range of emotional difficulties, ADD/ADHD, learning and behavioural difficulties, and psychosocial problems as a result of personality disorders with children and adults. I also use Neurotherapy to treat patients with Alzheimer’s Disease.

I recently started with BWRT or Brain Working Recurrence Therapy which is based on neuropsychological science. The number of sessions to reach improvement with this method is generally fewer than other methods of psychotherapy. An advantage of BWRT treatment is that patients who are reluctant to talk about old memories have a choice not to rekindle old memories during the sessions. BWRT is generally shorter term than other methods of psychotherapy.
