Description

Dyslexia and Mental Health: Helping People Identify Destructive Behaviours and Find Positive Ways to Cope. Dyslexia is a complex condition that affects not only learning but every part of life. For those with dyslexia, the fear of social stigma can lead to camouflaging difficulties, withdrawal, and negative coping strategies. This can have a lasting impact on their emotional health. This book sheds light on the complexities surrounding dyslexia, examining psychological theories that reveal how people deal with its emotional impact. It offers guidelines and advice, illustrated with real-life examples, on how to help individuals with dyslexia avoid harmful coping strategies and learn to manage stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem in a more effective way. Suitable for educational and clinical psychologists, teachers, mental health specialists, counsellors, and therapists, this book provides valuable insights into the emotional complexities of dyslexia.
