Product Description
Those seeking alternative methodologies for achieving optimal mental health will learn effective, safe, natural, and generally more affordable strategies and treatments in this guidebook. With up-to-date research, illustrative examples, and a practical approach for individuals and families, this handbook features an overview of mental health disorders, basic strategies for improving as well as preventing mental health issues, therapies that go beyond the fundamentals, and specific strategies for those struggling with ADHD, depression, anxiety, stress, and substance abuse. In addition to outlining the basics—such as the role of exercise and activity, restful sleep, nutrition, and supplements—the text details stress-management practices and discusses alternate techniques including homeopathy, massage and bodywork therapy, acupuncture, and chiropractic and osteopathic work. A section on advocacy and resources is also available.

This is by far THE most comprehensive guide to holistic mental health care that I have come across. Dr. Kemper covers everything from managing stress to healthy communication skills; from nutrition to herbs and dietary supplements; from exercise to massage; from homeopathy to acupuncture; and so much more. In these stressful times, I recommend this book as a must-have for every family - it contains something for everyone!

I bought this book after hearing Dr. Kemper interviewed on the radio. As a health care professional I appreciate her scientific approach to alternative health practices, and in particular wanted to see the recommended dosages of supplements and vitamins she discussed in the interview.
