ABSTRACT
We are in the age of the cognitive revolution. However, has that become a one-size-fits-all way of thinking? There are several helpful evidence-based cognitive models that are powerful tools for clients, but is that all there is? This chapter surveys some little used theories that lend themselves beautifully to rural clientele. They include ecopsychology, the Sanctuary Model, community psychology, trauma-informed therapy, and the public health approach.
