Product Description

This book is a "how-to" manual for incorporating psychotherapy into the daily practice of primary care medicine. In the universe of primary care patients, many, if not all, have a behavioural component as part and parcel of their visit to a physician. Successfully recognising and addressing these issues in a time-effective manner will benefit the patient while at the same time increasing the satisfaction of the caregiver. This manual is designed for family physicians and general internists and other providers of primary health care services such as paediatricians, college health physicians, emergency physicians, and nurse practitioners, as well as specialists in non-primary care fields.

A Treasure for Family Physicians and Educators 11 May 2004

By Sally Dunlap, PhD - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

The Fifteen Minute Hour focuses on challenges that family physicians actually experience in daily practice. Besides the well known BATHE techniques, there are sections on physician self care, anticipatory guidance, difficult patients, along with clear guidance on brief psychotherapy within the office visit. I often use the concept of the healthy self vs. the neurotic self in teaching. During stress the system goes on tilt and the neurotic self comes to the fore. One of the miracles I see in patients is the transformation within a visit bwtween those two selves as we participate in something that allows them to get in touch with their healthy self.
