Recent advances in affective neuroscience reveal long-held secrets of mental health and illness within the brain. On the other hand, the gap between brain science and clinical practice is wide, and plenty of clinicians find neuroscience to be tedious, overly technical, and laborious to be informed. Eight Key Brain Areas of Mental Health and Illness bridges this gap, providing key details about the neuroscience of mental illness so clinicians can apply it in their work.
In this handbook, clinical psychologist and best-selling writer Jennifer Sweeton details the eight main areas of the brain suffering from mental illness, how brain changes show up within the therapy room as symptoms and behaviors, and the kinds of therapies and psychotherapeutic techniques research has shown can heal the brain. After reading this book, clinicians will feel confident and occupied with their ability to take a client-centered, strategic, brain-based approach to remedy planning.
