A Handy Guide to
Non Epileptic Attack Disorder
Dr James Spiers
If you are someone who experiences non epileptic attacks, or you are someone who lives with, cares about or supports someone with these types of seizures, this book was written for you and aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how and why psychological therapy can help.
The chapters in this book take you through a journey behind the scenes of specialist clinical practice, including the common challenges that people can face, as well as comprehensive discussion around the often confusing interplay between physical and psychological health. There is also a comprehensive chapter describing additional considerations where someone experiences co-occurring mental health difficulties such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and complex trauma.

A running thread throughout, is the detailed case example of Nathan. While Nathan’s story, context and narrative are entirely fictionalised to protect patient confidentiality, his story is based on very real common themes from modern clinical practice and attempts to bring you as close to the therapy room as can be ethically done.
The genuine aim of this book is to provide a realistic insight into psychological therapy, beyond basic stress management techniques. The intention is to foster hope for people that both improvement and good symptom management of non epileptic seizures is possible.
