This book systematically introduces the theoretical research and practical application of cognitive-behavioral intervention under the recovery-oriented approach. In the field of mental health services, both the restoration model and cognitive-behavioral intervention have been widely used, but the combination of the two is still a cutting-edge research. The Hong Kong Baptist Baptist Oi Kwan Social Service Center cooperated with Professor Daniel Wong Fu-keung and his team from the University of Hong Kong to combine the concept of restoration with cognitive-behavioral therapy and apply it to the work of mental health recovery cases. The specific implementation, experience, and reflection of the project are compiled into a book. The cutting-edge research results presented in this book not only bring new inspirations to mental health service workers, but the detailed practical operation records also provide invaluable guidance for related fields of workers, social workers, and scholars.

There is always a reason for physical ailments. That’s why people say, "To cure the body, first cure the mind." People may think that psychotherapy is only for people with serious mental problems, but in fact, everyone is exposed to trauma to varying degree; everyone has been unhappy; everyone has been frustrated, sad, angry, and hurt. And the emotions caused by these incidents bottled up deep in our mind, affecting our thoughts, behaviors, and habits subconsciously. The body is an important channel for the subconscious to realize itself. Body, mind, and spirit are all interrelated. If there is a wound on your mind that you are unwilling to admit, accept, or face, the subconscious may tell you about the wound by inflicting ailments on your body. And when psychological trauma or emotions are resolved or dealt with, physical discomfort will always miraculously disappear. The author of this book is a professional counsellor and therapist, who uses real cases as examples to introduce readers to the close relationship between the body and the mind, and how to see your life in better light through the process of accepting therapy.
