In his book Mind Over Terror 3 Weeks, 2 Cities, 1 Mission Psychotherapist, Resilience Consultant and Psych-trauma trainer Dov Benyaacov-Kurtzman takes a look at three significantly traumatic events which impacted two British cities.
In his book he takes his readers with him on a startling mission, a mission to radically change the way we approach mental health issues when dealing with survivors of psychological shock and trauma in Britain.
Dov points out that for weeks after the bombing of the MEN Arena in his home town of Manchester he felt himself to be on constant "high alert" catching sleep whenever he could, living in trepidation that something else might be just around the corner.
As a result of his thinking he decided to continue his work on dealing with trauma and to change the way we approach mental health when dealing with people who have survived psychological shock and trauma.
The book looks at issues such as terrorism, personal development, military experience, major fire incidents, disasters and more besides.
Training methods are explained and it offers First Aid Cognitive Training.
If you are a police office, a medic (doctor, nurse, psychologist, psychiatrist, administrator, etc) a charity worker, employed in local or national government, councillor, MP, etc., then you simply must have a copy of this book.
It is published by Matador at £14.99.
