The Mind in Transformation: Psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Applied Neuroscience
We live at a time when knowledge of the human mind has never been so accessible and, at the same time, so necessary. Anxiety, stress, depression, emotional trauma, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties affect millions of people. Despite scientific advances, many still do not understand how thoughts, emotions and behaviours influence their decisions and the way in which they face everyday challenges. In The Mind in Transformation: Psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Applied Neuroscience, Dr Carlos Freitas invites readers on a journey through the human mind. Written in clear, accessible and scientifically grounded language, the book brings together knowledge from cognitive psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and applied neuroscience, bridging the gap between scientific research and its practical application. Throughout its thirty chapters, readers will come to understand how the brain processes information, how automatic thoughts arise, how emotions influence behaviour and why certain beliefs shape the way each person perceives themselves and the world around them.
