| Publisher Description: Treating the Whole Patient: Exploring the Healing Potential of a Mind-Body Approach to Mental Health promotes a shift in patient care that encourages healthcare professionals to move beyond a one-dimensional approach to the management of a disease toward a multi-dimensional approach that incorporates new scientific understandings of the many connections between mind and body relevant to diagnosing, treating, and managing patients with psychiatric disorders. Our ultimate goal is to provide an understanding of the neurobiology of a disease and its effect on a patient, consider the role of medical comorbidities on the psychiatric disorder, learn strategies for successful treatment and management options, address barriers to care, and better comprehend the impact of wellness on mental health. Based on cutting-edge scientific data in fields as diverse as neuroscience, genetics and immunology, Treating the Whole Patient: Exploring the Healing Potential of a Mind-Body Approach to Mental Health demonstrate through a question and answer format how recent discoveries promote an integrated mind-body perspective on psychiatric illness that will empower healthcare professionals to optimize therapeutic outcomes by improving multiple aspects of patient care with the long-term result of helping individuals suffering from psychiatric disease to attain wellness. The Treating the Whole Patient mental health initiatives are provided by CME LLC and encompass not only the ongoing community forum of blog posts but also live regional meetings as well as a series of educational sessions at the annual U.S. Psychiatric and Mental Health Congress.
