Louis Cozolino helps clinicians to broaden their thinking and deepen their clinical toolbox through an understanding of neuroscience, brain development, epigenetics, and the role of attachment in brain development and behavior.
The effective therapist must have knowledge of evolution and neuroanatomy, as well as the systems of our brains and how they work together to give rise to who we are, how we thrive, and why we suffer. This book will give clinicians all they need to understand the social brain, the developing brain, the executive brain, consciousness, attachment, trauma, memory, and the latest information about clinical assessment. Key figures and terms of neuroscience, along with numerous case examples, bring the material to life.
Cozolino is one of the most gifted clinical writers on neuroscience, and his long- awaited pocket guide is a must- buy for any clinician working on the cutting edge of treatment.
Dr. Lou Cozolino practices psychotherapy and consulting psychology in Beverly Hills, California. He received his PhD in Clinical Psychology from UCLA and an MTS from Harvard University. He has been a professor at Pepperdine since 1986 and lectures around the world on psychotherapy, neuroscience, trauma, and attachment. Dr. Cozolino is the Series Editor of the Norton Series on Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) and the author of ten Norton books, including the bestsellers The Neuroscience of Psychotherapy, 3rd Edition, The Neuroscience of Human Relationships, 2nd Edition, and The Making of a Therapist.

Few people have Cozolino's clear understanding of the indivisible
nature of mind, brain, and body. Fewer still can make these
concepts so accessible, accurately describing the brain as a social
organ and humans as complex beings that have been shaped by
evolution. Exploring the interface of science and psychotherapy,
this book encourages us to know relationship as our natural habitat
and to appreciate the conscious and unconscious layers of
communication that influence us.--Mary L. Meador, M.D., Board
Certified Physician in private practice, Education Chair for Global
Association of Interpersonal Neurobiology, Teacher of Science of
IBNB, Portland Community College
Lou Cozolino's new book is a must-have for all therapists and
practitioners who support and care for individuals who carry with
them pain and hurt. It is a way of looking through the lens of
knowledge about the brain, mind, and body to understand deeply the
ways in which relationships offer the resources for healing and
transformation. Lou is a thoughtful and kind guide to the
neuroscience of clinical work. You will want to read the book again
and again. Each time, you will discover something more.--Joe Tucci,
PhD, CEO of the Austrailian Childhood Foundation
Written with concision, elegance and anecdotal verse, this book
combines cutting-edge science and the experience-based insights of
a master clinician. Lou Cozolino's guide to applied neuroscience
will be a treasured resource for therapists, physicians, and
counselors for a long time to come.--Gabor Maté, M.D., author In
the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction
