Brain Health Existential-Humanistic

Brain Health

“Brain Health is an emerging and growing concept that encompasses neural development, plasticity, functioning, and recovery across the life course.”[1]

 

Since the brain is mission control, a person’s ability to function well in any domain of everyday life rests on good brain health.  And given that the brain ages just as the rest of our body does, it is vital to keep your brain healthy throughout life.

Existential-Humanistic

Existential-Humanistic psychotherapies emphasize a collaborative approach to the understanding of the client's full experience rather than just the symptom, thoughts or behaviour. Psychological problems are viewed as the result of a restricted ability to make authentic, meaningful, and self-directed choices about how to live. Consequently, interventions are aimed at increasing client self-awareness and self-understanding. The key words for existential-humanistic therapy are acceptance and growth, responsibility and freedom.
