Descriptions

The human-animal bond goes back millennia and has been extensively documented from ancient literature to modern-day research reports. Although millions of pet owners will vouch for the benefits of companion animals, the decision about whether to implement animal-based interventions for mental disorders is not always a simple one. Offering a scientifically grounded review of the latest research, complemented by practical examples, The Role of Companion Animals in the Treatment of Mental Disorders examines the existing evidence to support these practices as well as the risks associated with various types of programs. This robust volume features detailed discussion of topics that include human-animal interactions in specific patient populations and settings, as well as best practices for ensuring animal welfare and well-being, with an emphasis on understanding applicable laws and regulations. Readers will come away with an understanding of the role that animals can play in mitigating psychiatric symptoms, engaging patients in treatment, and enhancing well-being
