Description

This course reviews literature in animal and human behavior to provide a basic biological and behavioral framework for considering the relationship between the mind, body, and emotions. The historical view of emotion as an instinctual force that should be controlled is contrasted with an emerging understanding of emotion as an adaptive intelligence that deeply informs our relationship to the world. This course includes the fundamental occupational tasks of assessment, case presentation, case collaboration, team membership and client interaction.
