The discoveries of neuroscience are beginning to illuminate the workings of the active brain in detail. To be a modern therapist, it is essential to have knowledge about traditional psychotherapeutic models, but also a good understanding of the role the brain plays. However, theory is never enough. You must also know how to apply the theories to work with real clients during sessions. In understandable language, Being a Brain-Wise Therapist reviews the basic principles of brain structure, function, and development, explaining the neurobiological correlations of certain well-known diagnostic categories. You will learn how to bring theory to life during clinical work, so that the principles of interpersonal neurobiology can be applied to a range of patients and issues, such as couples, adolescents, and children, as well as individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, and other disorders. Numerous exercises and clinical cases bring the material to life and make this guide essential for seamlessly integrating the latest neuroscience research into your therapeutic practice.
