Drawn from the Fifth World Congress on Mental Health and Deafness, held in Monterrey, Mexico, in 2012, the 13 papers in this book address mental health services for deaf people. Psychology,
deaf education, and hearing professionals from Europe, the US, and Mexico consider specific mental health issues and treatment modalities, including the human rights perspective,
psychopharmacological treatment, the development of mental health and deafness services in Mexico, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, equine-assisted counseling, and the
psychosocial implications of cochlear implants; deaf populations in Greece and Cyprus, Austria, and Spanish-speaking homes in the US; and mental health problems in deaf children and their
families. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
