Coping, Healing and Thriving on a Changing Planet

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When Dr Thomas Doherty published his groundbreaking paper 'The Psychological Impacts of Global Climate Change' in American Psychologist over a decade ago, he predicted a perfect storm brewing for a mental health crisis of global proportions. Today that crisis has arrived. We are more anxious than ever, seized by an impossible new source of mental anguish: climate change and the global environmental crisis. Doherty, a pioneer in this crucial, fast-growing field, recognizes that this is a very real crisis as well as an existential one. The magnitude of our fear is so great, that many of us simply don't know how to process it.

In his vital debut, Surviving Climate Anxiety: Coping Healing and Thriving on a Changing Planet, Doherty will share his unique step-by-step psychological approach to understanding and healing our environmental anguish, a process he has been teaching practitioners and patients for over 15 years. Surviving Climate Anxiety will allow readers to view climate change in new and crucial ways, providing them with the tools and knowledge they need to orient themselves in the truth of our current climate crisis, to be able to manage their own reactions to it, and plan for a hopeful future of positive personal growth.
