Description
In this three credit course, we will explore neurobiology as it relates to emotional, behavioral and cognitive development and expression. The last decade, with the benefits of technology and research, has witnessed a renewed convergence of psychiatry and neurology. Emotional factors are often expressed via neurological symptoms and neurological deficits often resulting in psychological symptoms. This course will identify key areas in the brain, nervous system, and the interrelationship with internal and external factors that shape who we are and what we do. Through presentations, discussion and experiential practice, students taking this course will leave with a greater understanding of the brain/body connection as it relates to stress, trauma and the myriad of neurological and emotional pathologies. This course includes the fundamental occupational task of assessment, case collaboration, team membership and client interaction.
