In this article, we address how counsellors can bring neuroscience into their practice with clients across developmental life stages, by utilizing interventions that promote positive brain plasticity (i.e., increased efficiency in brain structure, function, and connectivity) and reverse the effects of negative plasticity (i.e., decreased neural efficiency such as maladaptive necrosis or synaptic loss).</span></span></p>}, number={4}, journal={Canadian Journal of Counselling and Psychotherapy}, author={Goncalves, Oscar F. and Perrone-McGovern, Kristin M.}, year={2016}, month={Nov.} }
