The Intentional Clinician: Psychology, Philosophy, and Therapy
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Dr. Monica Vermani stops by the Intentional Clinician to talk to Paul Krauss MA LPC about her new book A Deeper Wellness (Conquering Stress, Mood, Anxiety, and Trauma). Dr. Monica Vermani was inspired to write this book during the Covid-19 Pandemic as she wanted to give people a low-cost option to help them when they were not in the counseling office, or for people who could not afford psychotherapy--this book is full of practical tools, applicable examples, and great knowledge distilled into easily consumable amounts. If you are looking for practical ways to increase your mental well being--then this episode is for you. Dr. Vermani is a positive force for anyone struggling.
One of Canada’s highest-rated clinical psychologists, Dr. Monica Vermani is a public speaker, teacher, and author in the field of mental health and wellness. In her private practice, Dr. Vermani provides a multi-faceted treatment approach in treating adolescents and adults suffering from trauma/abuse, mood, anxiety, substance addictions, and other related conditions and disorders, as well as family and couples therapy. Dr. Vermani believes that good mental health doesn’t just happen, that it deserves the same time, attention, understanding, and effort as our physical wellbeing. To that end, Dr. Vermani’s latest book, A Deeper Wellness, and its companion online A Deeper Wellness Life Lessons mental health program provide the tools to create a deep, authentic sense of wellness and wellbeing. Drawing from her 25 years of clinical practice, she takes readers through the same tried and true multi-disciplinary approach to treatment that has been successful in creating incremental, meaningful change for hundreds of patients and groups.
