Helpful knowledge for general practice and psychosomatic basic care. The book provides information on psychological short interventions for the most common mental and psychosomatic disorders, such as depression, anxiety disorders, and addiction, intended for use in general and specialist practices. Through video recordings of each step, the content is presented in a practical and illustrative manner. The interventions are designed for primary care physicians, limited to a few treatment sequences, and can be quickly learned by non-specialists. It explains what can be done independently, where support from medical personnel is needed, and in which cases referrals to specialists should be made. The book aims to equip all general and specialist physicians with the necessary know-how for non-medication-based psychological therapy for milder forms of the most common mental and psychosomatic disorders, thereby providing them with greater confidence in their actions. Mental and psychosomatic disorders account for up to one-third of all illnesses in general practice. Waiting times for psychological therapists or psychiatrists typically last several months, causing significant distress for those affected. The book is suitable for practicing specialists in general medicine and internal medicine, training assistants in general medicine and internal medicine, as well as doctors with additional qualifications in psychotherapy.
