Its impact on individual functioning across physical and psychosocial domains is significant and psychological distress is a common feature, with research suggesting that active IBD is associated with one of the highest rates of depression and anxiety of all chronic illnesses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDespite the high prevalence of mental health co-morbidities in IBD, psychological illness remains largely undertreated, with studies showing that 60% of IBD patients experiencing mental health problems do not receive adequate help. In this book, Knowles and Mikocka-Walus bring together world experts who practice integrated and holistic approach in their care for IBD patients, to provide an overview of research across a range of topics associated with the biopsychosocial treatment of IBD. Each chapter provides an up-to-date comprehensive consolidation and evaluation of the current literature alongside recommendations for practice. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey themes include: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecurrent understanding of the interrelationship of the neurological and biological aspects of IBD\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecommon concerns and issues individuals with IBD face \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexploring challenges across individual life-stages\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecurrent evidence for psychosocial interventions \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003erecommendations for future directions of biopsychosocial work. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003ePsychological Aspects of Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A biopsychosocial approach is a key resource for researchers, practitioners and academics considering psychosocial aspects of the disease and psychological interventions.
