Evolutionary Neuroscience in Counseling and Therapy: An Integrated Approach provides readers with a comprehensive exploration of the integration of evolutionary theory, neuroscience, and current counseling and psychotherapy theories. By synthesizing these perspectives, the book bridges the existing knowledge gap and offers a deeper understanding of individual well-being, social relationships, and therapeutic outcomes. Through a combination of theoretical foundations, clinical applications, and thought-provoking discussions, the text empowers mental health professionals and students with innovative insights and practical tools to enhance their practice and improve client outcomes.
The book covers the foundational principles of evolutionary theory and neuroscience, exploring how these perspectives inform our understanding of human behavior, cognition, emotions, and social relationships. It delves into applying these perspectives in various therapeutic modalities, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship dynamics. Additionally, the book examines the cultural considerations of integrating evolutionary and neuroscience perspectives in counseling and psychotherapy. Dedicated chapters cover attachment theory, cognition and negative bias, social and group dynamics, emotions and the brain, the future of evolutionary neuroscience, and more.
Evolutionary Neuroscience in Counseling and Therapy supports a future-focused, interdisciplinary approach to mental health and is ideal for courses and programs in mental health counseling, marriage and family therapy, psychology, social work, and related disciplines.
