It sets out a non-pathologizing alternative not only to the current medicalized conception of diagnosis and treatment but also to the labeling of relatively normal reactions to stressors and upsets as illnesses. Rooted in the neurobiology of human learning, the book’s approach to treatment, Neuro-Cognitive Learning Therapy, characterizes maladaptive behavior patterns as learned responses to upsetting conditions—processes which can be unlearned. In addition, the coverage includes a clinical teaching guide for bringing NCLT theory and methods into the training curriculum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis groundbreaking volume:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProposes a non-stigmatizing learning model for therapy, Neuro-Cognitive Learning Therapy.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces the concept of the connectome and explains its critical role in mental health and illness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifferentiates between the unconscious and automaticity in cognition and behavior.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses the applicability of NCLT to biologically-based mental disorders.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers case studies illustrating NCLT in contrast with commonly-used approaches.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a chapter-by-chapter clinical teaching guide with therapeutic principles and discussion questions.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides a comprehensive therapeutic framework for practitioners of all orientations.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDepathologizing Psychopathology gives neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, and child and school psychologists new ways of thinking about mental illness and learning about learning for a bold new step in the evolution of mind\/brain knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-07-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319309088\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-30910-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 181\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45588351156364,"sku":"9783319309088","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319309088.jpg?v=1775964260","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319309088","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
