Applying Neuroscience to Counseling Children and Adolescents: A
Guide to Brain-Based, Experiential Interventions explores the
neurobiological underpinnings of child and adolescent development
and encourages readers to apply neuroscience-informed interventions
and strategies to counseling practice. The book provides an
overview and foundational perspective on neuroscience-informed
child and adolescent counseling; covers models and modes of
counseling from a neuroscience perspective; and examines common
clinical presentations when working with children and adolescents.
Individual chapters address ethical and cultural considerations,
counseling theory and neuroscience, neuroscience of play, using
neuroscience in working with parents and caregivers, and
neuroscience-informed interventions to treat anxiety, depression,
stress, trauma, substance misuse, and attention and behavioral
issues. Each chapter features two primary cases, one for a young
child and one for an adolescent, conceptualized from real-life
clients. The chapters present practical interventions and a sample
of counselor-client dialogue to help readers understand how an
intervention might unfold during a session. Applying Neuroscience
to Counseling Children and Adolescents bridges the gap between
textbooks that cover neuroscience and counseling children and
adolescents independently. It is an ideal supplemental text for
courses on incorporating neuroscience in counseling.
Impact Therapy is an active approach to individual and group
counseling developed by Dr. Ed Jacobs, Dr. Chris Schimmel, and Dr.
Danie Beaulieu. This multisensory approach to counseling is a form
of brief therapy that emphasizes making counseling sessions clear,
concrete and thought provoking. Impact Therapy encourages
counselors to combine creative counseling techniques with various
counseling theories. This innovative approach to counseling has
been very well received by school counselors and therapists from
all areas of the mental health field including private practice,
mental health and drug and alcohol treatment centers, hospitals,
and correctional facilities.
