Health Science Video Booms at Alexander Street with Two New Collections

July 12, 2012

July 12, 2012 (ALEXANDRIA, VA)—Alexander Street Press continues to grow its health sciences portfolio with the release of two streaming video collections, Rehabilitation Therapy in Video and The Video Journal of Counseling and Therapy.

Rehabilitation Therapy in Video is a groundbreaking collection focused on the physical treatment of patients with congenital disorders, chronic health issues, and traumatic injuries. It includes more than 750 hours of streaming video. Students and faculty will receive an invaluable firsthand look at the realities of working with patients and putting theoretical concepts into practice.

Videos feature renowned occupational, physical, and speech therapists explaining the underlying anatomical and neurological issues in specific patient populations, while demonstrating effective techniques for their treatment. Topics include working with aging populations, brain injury, learning disabilities, pain management, speech impediments, and more.

Titles have been approved for educational use by key organizations such as the American Physical Therapy Association, the American Occupational Therapy Association, and many others. Content is regularly reviewed and updated to ensure accuracy and compliance with current standards.

With more than 1,000 hours of innovative content, The Video Journal of Counseling and Therapy provides a window into the presentations, lectures, and workshops of today’s most celebrated psychology and counseling thought leaders. The collection includes presentations from influential researchers and clinicians including Donald Meichenbaum, John Gottman, Marsha Linehan, Deepak Chopra, Salvador Minuchin, Philip Zimbardo, Sue Johnson, Scott Miller, Russell Barkley, and Judith Beck.

Much of the content was filmed in the past year, and new videos are added regularly. This extensive anthology is indexed to provide users with instant, convenient access to highly focused materials that covers the latest in research methods, practices, and techniques across a broad base of subject matter.

“Our newest collections provide demonstrations of some highly nuanced techniques,” says Greg Urquhart, Vice President of Business Development at Alexander Street. “They offer a level of precision that can’t be found in any textbook and are essential for anyone studying disciplines related to rehabilitation therapy or counseling.”

Video clips from Rehabilitation Therapy in Video and The Video Journal of Counseling and Therapy are available online. To request a free trial or price quote, e-mail sales [at] alexanderstreet [dot] com.
