Download or read book PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT BY COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR HEMOPHILIA written by Edenilson Brandl and published by Edenilson Brandl. This book was released on with total page 589 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living with a chronic condition like hemophilia is not just a physical challenge; it impacts every aspect of life—emotional, psychological, and social. Hemophilia, a genetic disorder affecting the blood’s ability to clot properly, requires individuals to navigate a complex web of medical treatments, lifestyle adjustments, and emotional hurdles. For many, the weight of managing a genetic condition can lead to feelings of isolation, anxiety, and depression. This book, "Psychological Support by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Hemophilia," was written with the purpose of providing a comprehensive approach to address not only the physical but also the psychological aspects of living with hemophilia. By merging insights from genetics, biology, and psychology, particularly through the lens of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), this book seeks to empower individuals with hemophilia to develop coping strategies, manage emotional distress, and lead fulfilling lives despite their condition. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has been widely recognized as an effective therapeutic approach for managing a variety of mental health challenges, and it offers valuable tools for those grappling with the emotional and psychological burdens of chronic illness. This book covers essential topics such as trauma, genetic counseling, independence in one’s genetic journey, and the practical application of CBT techniques. By addressing both the biological underpinnings of hemophilia and the cognitive and emotional toll it takes, this book aims to create a balanced and supportive guide for patients, caregivers, and mental health professionals alike. In the chapters that follow, we explore the intricate connection between mind and body, offering both theoretical knowledge and practical tools to manage the emotional impact of hemophilia. From learning how to manage pain and fatigue, to developing strategies for mental resilience and emotional regulation, this book is designed to be a go-to resource for anyone affected by hemophilia. It is my hope that this book provides a source of comfort, guidance, and empowerment to those living with hemophilia, helping them to navigate their journey with greater confidence, mental fortitude, and emotional well-being.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes in detail the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of a wide range of congenital bleeding disorders. It will assist readers in overcoming the significant challenges involved in clinical and laboratory diagnosis and in providing effective clinical care that makes optimal use of new products, including recombinant factor concentrate. The coverage ranges from hemophilia A and B and von Willebrand disease to rare bleeding disorders such as congenital factor V, factor X, factor XI, and factor XIII deficiency and inherited platelet function disorders. The exceptional attention to rarer conditions is of particular importance given the considerable risk of overlooking them during diagnosis, with potential consequences for disease-related morbidity and mortality. The authors are acknowledged specialists in the field from across the world who have particular expertise in the disorder that they discuss. The book will be of value to hematologists, oncologists, pediatricians, laboratory specialists and technicians, general physicians, and trainees.

Download or read book Psychological and Behavioral Aspects of Physical Disability written by James E. Lindemann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A relationship between the disciplines of psychology and medicine is evident in writings from the beginnings of recorded history. This inter action was characterized in some epochs by mutual interest and support, only to be followed by periods of relative disinterest. During the past century there have been several formal attempts to acknowledge this interdependence and to revive and codify on a more permanent basis the working relationships between practitioners and scientists from both psychology and medicine. These twentieth-century waves of interest, which have also come and gone, have been identified by such names as psychosomatic medicine and rehabilitation psychology. For a variety of reasons, notably the lack of a sufficient knowledge base in either disci pline, the desired partnership has not come to full flower. This state of affairs seems to be changing as we enter the last two decades of the twentieth century. In the American Psychologist in September, 1980, I reviewed recent developments in psychology and in medicine and in federal and private funding patterns, which give evidence of revitalizing this partnership between these two disciplines and their relevant subspecialties. For ex ample, after six decades of spectacular biomedical scientific advances which have all but eradicated such life-threatening diseases as polio myelitis and tuberculosis, leaders in medicine, the behavioral sciences, and other segments of society reached a consensus during the 1970s that the behavior of the individual is one of today's unexplored frontiers for modern medical practice and related good health care.
