Whether working with clients coping with chronic illness, the onset of disability, or a range of psychosocial issues, stress is a hidden but often all-pervasive issue. This book therefore provides a comprehensive understanding of what stress means, how it can be understood, and the practical tools to address it effectively. Split into three sections, it begins by introducing the concept of stress, and the neurophysiological mechanisms which underpin it. The second section deals with evaluation and assessment, including a range of clinical assessment tools, and covering topics such as lifestyle factors, cross cultural differences, and the effects of technology. The final section of the book provides strategies for interventions, from mindfulness and other relaxation techniques, to music, horticulture and the arts. There is also a chapter on managing group interventions, as well as addressing burnout among practitioners or students.
Emphasizing the key interplay between the individual, environment and occupation, this insightful and practical text will be essential reading for occupational therapy students and practitioners alike.
