​Psychological First Aid”
Reframing the Way We Think about Mental Illness
 
April 15, 2021, (Rancho Mirage CA): Integrative Mental Health Specialist and author, Louise B. Miller, Ph.D., is debuting a new book on the treatment of mental illness titled “Psychological First Aid” (Amazon $19.95). Released in time to help raise awareness of Mental Health Month in the USA and Canada, this book is designed to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness as being a ‘hidden disease.”

Miller applies the same first aid principles that we do for a physical injury to psychological illnesses, explains the mind-body connection, and removes the invisible line society has placed between our physical health and our mental health.

As Miller says, “The world is in the grips of a growing mental health crisis that threatens lives, and it’s not going away. “Psychological First Aid” is groundbreaking in its ease of presentation. In nearly two dozen chapters, Miller, who earned her Degrees in Psychology at both Harvard and Pepperdine, is the author of multiple books and a frequent blog contributor to Psychology Today.

Chapters 1-3: deal with mild, moderate, and severe signs and symptoms. While Chapters 4-5: delve into the available help and where to find it. The remaining chapters cover hot-button topics such as Addiction; Anxiety, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Grief/Loss, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Sleep Disorders, Stress, Suicide, and Medications.

​Each disorder and treatment in “Psychological First Aid” is explained in an easy-to-read format.  Miller, most of all, stresses that people should not be ashamed to seek mental health treatment, that we need to reframe the way we think about mental illness, and that we need to remove the stigma associated with it.
