According to the International Association of Applied Neuroscience, neuropsychotherapy can be explained as:
"The practice of Neuropsychotherapy is a mode of working with clients to address a wide range of psychological and physiological distresses by helping clients become aware of how neural processes are linked to their feeling states and perceptions, whilst at the same time aiming to achieve, for the client, a fundamental requirement for safety, in whatever area of life they are experiencing difficulty. In the application of Neuropsychotherapy it is the therapist’s role to raise client awareness and enhance client’s control over their perceptional, cognitive and hormonal systems and to work with the client to down-regulate (lessen) the psychological and physiological symptoms of distress. It is also the therapist’s role to demonstrate and work with their clients to reveal the links and interdependencies of these perceptional, cognitive and hormonal systems, in both in body and mind." http://www.iacn.com.au/what-is-neuropsychotherapy/
By educating you about the workings of your brain, we allow you to take control of your mental health and wellbeing. Poor mental health is debilitating. When it has been experienced for a significant amount of time, it may feel that returning to mental wellness is almost impossible. Remember, there was a time before you felt unwell, when life was easier and more enjoyable. Getting back to that time is possible.
Whether you have decided to include medication in your treatment plan or not, there are many things you can begin to do right now, that will change the way your brain behaves, which will change the way you feel.
The objective is to regain control over the debilitating symptoms you are experiencing. Understanding what is happening in your brain at this time, and learning what you can do to improve your mental wellbeing, will increase your chances of feeling your old self again and staying that way.
