Beschreibung

This groundbreaking volume provides a theoretical overview and clinical guidelines for the application of neuropsychotherapy. It takes a multidisciplinary approach, combining neuropsychological knowledge with recent conceptualizations from neuroscience and psychotherapy, with special emphasis on the role of working alliance.

The first part of the book focuses on the historical roots of neuropsychotherapy. Then, a framework of interpersonal process in neuropsychotherapy and conceptualization for clinical purposes are described. Resistance is described through a historical perspective of conceptualizations to the present-day demands of understanding this phenomenon in the process of neuropsychotherapy. In addition, the neuropsychology of emotions is presented in a therapeutic process through a case intervention.

The latter chapters of the book are concerned with special interest interventions and psychotherapeutic working methods suited for neuropsychotherapy.

Representing a wide variety of theoretical, research oriented, clinical neuropsychological and psychotherapeutic expertise, this book will interest professionals in neuropsychological rehabilitation and those working with patients with cognitive, emotional and behavioral disorders in in-patient and out-patient settings.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Laaksonen and Ranta and their colleagues have been developing neuropsychotherapy and the holistic approach to brain rehabilitation for decades. By making their principles and procedures more universally available, this text will be of great value to the field."

-James F. Malec, Ph.D., Indiana University School of Medicine

"The book is a much needed contribution to, and an important enlargement of, more traditional Neuropsychological Rehabilitation written by a group of knowledgeable, internationally active neuropsychologists, building upon a long tradition in Finland from early rehabilitation of Finnish war veterans after the "Winterwar" as early as in the nineteenforties, the successful "Insure Program" and a continued engagement in and renewal of rehabilitation development worldwide."

-Anne-Lise Christensen, Ph.D., recipient of the Life Time Achievement Award from the International Brain Injury Association
