Description
This book explores how the brain processes information in applied therapeutic interventions. It aims to provide a new model, based on the neural networks, to understand and address mental health issues.
The authors begin by introducing the neural network model of learning, including components such as reward recognition, automaticity, and memory reconsolidation. They then explore how this model can be integrated across existing systems of therapy, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and other approaches.
This book is an important resource for researchers and practitioners interested in applying the neural network model to therapy, as well as those looking to integrate their work with related fields such as behavioural medicine, health psychology and social work.
