Tinnitus, ringing in the ears, affects over 50 million people in the United States. Unfortunately, while there are a number of treatment strategies to help people live with tinnitus, there is often no cure. Tinnitus is unique in that there is a decidedly mental component to it. Tinnitus-sufferers intuitively sense that if they could just control their minds, the effect tinnitus has on their lives would diminish. They know there should be a way to use their minds, the way they think, so that their minds are their allies in the struggle with tinnitus regardless of which other methods they may choose to use. This book has a simple, albeit significant, goal. Its sole purpose is to give those suffering from tinnitus some different ways of thinking and simple mental techniques to put their minds solidly on their side in their encounter with tinnitus. The numerous mental and physical tools and strategies in this book, which work in conjunction with whatever other adjunctive therapies one may use for tinnitus, help to diminish the emotional toll tinnitus has on one's life, and functionally decrease the amount of time one focuses on the ringing in one's ears. The principles and techniques include such things as reviewing our emotional reaction to tinnitus, changing our beliefs with regards tinnitus, becoming conscious of both the questions we are asking ourselves and the words we are using to describe our tinnitus experience, avoiding giving tinnitus undo energy, interrupting patterns where we focus on or become upset because of our tinnitus, along with numerous other techniques. For many people, these methods may be enough to break the hold tinnitus has on their lives. Whether a person has just developed tinnitus or may have had it for a long time, this book can help.
For many individuals afflicted with tinnitus, the condition causes substantial distress. While there is no known cure for tinnitus, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can offer an effective strategy for managing the symptoms and side effects of chronic tinnitus. Cognitive Behaviorial Therapy for Tinnitus is the first book to provide comprehensive CBT counseling materials specifically developed for the management of tinnitus. This valuable professional book has two primary purposes: to provide clinical guidelines for audiologists who are offering CBT-based counseling for tinnitus and to provide self-help materials for individuals with tinnitus. In addition, these materials may be of interest to researchers developing evidence-based therapies for tinnitus. The book is structured into three sections. Section A provides background information about the theoretical aspects of CBT and some practical tips on how to use this book. Section B provides the CBT counseling, or self-help materials, which can be used by both audiologists and those with tinnitus. Finally, Section C provides some supplementary materials for clinicians that can aid monitoring and engagement of individuals experiencing tinnitus during the course of intervention. Key Features: * The CBT materials contained in this text have been tested in numerous clinical trials across the globe (Australia, Germany, Sweden, United Kingdom, and the United States) both as self-help book chapters and self-help materials delivered via the Internet. * The counseling materials are presented at minimum reading grade level (U.S. 6th grade level) to maximize reader engagement. * The authors of this book have extensive experience in the management of tinnitus, offering useful insights for clinicians and those with tinnitus. * Includes expert advice videos for each chapter to facilitate its adoption to clinical practice.

The surprising science of hearing and the remarkable technologies that can help us hear better Our sense of hearing makes it easy to connect with the world and the people around us. The human system for processing sound is a biological marvel, an intricate assembly of delicate membranes, bones, receptor cells, and neurons. Yet many people take their ears for granted, abusing them with loud restaurants, rock concerts, and Q-tips. And then, eventually, most of us start to go deaf. Millions of Americans suffer from hearing loss. Faced with the cost and stigma of hearing aids, the natural human tendency is to do nothing and hope for the best, usually while pretending that nothing is wrong. In Volume Control, David Owen argues this inaction comes with a huge social cost. He demystifies the science of hearing while encouraging readers to get the treatment they need for hearing loss and protect the hearing they still have. Hearing aids are rapidly improving and becoming more versatile. Inexpensive high-tech substitutes are increasingly available, making it possible for more of us to boost our weakening ears without bankrupting ourselves. Relatively soon, physicians may be able to reverse losses that have always been considered irreversible. Even the insistent buzz of tinnitus may soon yield to relatively simple treatments and techniques. With wit and clarity, Owen explores the incredible possibilities of technologically assisted hearing. And he proves that ears, whether they're working or not, are endlessly interesting.
This is a self-help workbook that is intended for use by patients or by anyone who is bothered by tinnitus. It accompanies the two Progressive Tinnitus Management books -- the Counseling Guide and Clinical Handbook for Audiologists. This third edition of the workbook has been extensively revised and expanded to include new sections describing key components of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT).. A DVD and CD are included with the workbook. The DVD contains four interactive videos, all of which are captioned. The first two videos show the education that is provided to patients during the first and second sessions of PTM Level 3 Group Education (this video is different from the one for the PTM clinical handbook-the workbook version is designed for individual viewing at home while the handbook version is designed for group viewing in the clinical setting). The third and fourth videos on the DVD provide demonstrations of two relaxation techniques-deep breathing and imagery. These relaxation videos can be used to supplement the Level 3 Group Education. The 76-minute audio CD contains a tutorial of how sound can be used to manage tinnitus, followed by samples of different sounds. Clinicians can use the CD to supplement the PTM counseling.
