Abstract

The purpose of this book is to encourage clinicians to introduce neurotherapy into their practice. Neurotherapy blends synergically with every therapeutic metaphor. Whatever your discipline, neurotherapy will markedly enhance your efficacy. As will be discussed in detail later on in this book, clinicians such as psychologists and psychiatrists, for example, will find neurotherapy markedly efficacious for treating all levels of the detrimental sequellae of exposure to severe emotional stressors.
