A Balanced Perspective Depending on their training, most mental-health professionals are either strongly in favor of, or firmly opposed to, the use of psychoactive medications such as Prozac, Ritalin, Valium, and Zoloft. Dr. Catell advocates a balanced perspective, discussing the most common psychoactive prescription medications. Practitioners also need to know how their clients are affected by commonly-used non-prescription psychoactive substances-both legal and illegal-such as alcohol, caffeine, cocaine, ecstasy, LSD, marijuana, nicotine, sleep aids, and many others. Drugs and Clients explains how psychoactive substances work, describes how to objectively evaluate their risks and benefits, and explories how their presence, or absence, affects the process of psychotherapy, with a focus on how to recognize when a medication evaluation might be needed. A Clear, Concise Resource for all Mental-Health Practitioners In Drugs and Clients, Dr. Catell makes the highly-complex subject of psychopharmacology accessible, not only to psychotherapists, but to all mental-health practitioners who have not been trained in the specialty of psychiatry.

Price: $9.95  Quantity: Through the Gateway of the Heart, Second Edition - FREE SHIPPING The substance known as "ecstasy" or MDMA has a paradoxical double role in contemporary society. As ecstasy it is consumed by tens (perhaps hundreds) of thousands of individuals at rave dance parties in the US, Europe, and the Far East. As the empathogenic (or entactogenic) therapeutic adjunct to psychotherapy MDMA it is being actively researched as a promising treatment for PTSD, obsessive-compulsive neurosis, and interpersonal anxiety. This book, originally compiled and written in the early 1980s (before MDMA became illegal) is a collection of experience accounts, in supportive and/or therapeutic settings, that illustrate its value in generating insight, facilitating empathic communication, and supporting spiritual practice. Although the use of MDMA remains illegal, except in the limited context of therapy research, the editors, like many professionals, believe that a fresh look at this very promising substance is warranted.
