We are pleased to announce that the pivotal book, Behavioral Health: Applying the Biodyne Mindset in Healthcare, is now available worldwide.
TEMPE, Ariz. & VANCOUVER, British Columbia & TORONTO - ncarol.com -- Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies (CGI) is proud to announce the upcoming release of the groundbreaking new book, Integrated Behavioral Health: Applying the Biodyne Mindset in Healthcare, set for publication in January 2026. This new book builds on the foundation laid by Dr. Nicholas A. Cummings and Dr. Janet Cummings, renowned psychologists and co-founders of both the Doctor of Behavioral Health (DBH) degree program and CGI, who previously introduced the influential Biodyne Model in their seminal work Refocused Psychotherapy as the First Line Intervention in Behavioral Health.
In the decade since its original release of Refocused Psychotherapy as the First Line Intervention in Behavioral Health, the healthcare landscape has transformed dramatically, particularly in the field of integrated care. Recognizing this evolution, CGI's students and faculty advocated for a modernized edition of the text to address pressing issues such as shifting population demographics, patient-centered care practices, the growing complexity of chronic illness, and the rising costs of healthcare delivery. Integrated Behavioral Health: Applying the Biodyne Mindset in Healthcare addresses these new pressing issues, ensuring future generations of integrated care professionals are effectively equipped with evidence-based strategies to meet the demands of today's changing healthcare environment.
Dr. Janet Cummings shares insight into the significance of the new edition:
"The Biodyne Model has never been stagnant. It has always been, and hopefully always will be, a work in progress. Because the model is based on solid research, it must evolve with newer research. The original Biodyne Model was a "carve out" model, where mental/behavioral healthcare was separated from physical healthcare. The current model is an integrated care model, where mental/behavioral healthcare is fully integrated into physical healthcare. As we learn more about such things as mental health consequences of pandemics, systemic racism, and other current social factors, we must continue to update the Biodyne Model accordingly. The need to remain current has driven this updated book."

Integrated Behavioral Health: Applying the Biodyne Mindset in Healthcare advances the Biodyne Model to reflect the post-pandemic realities of healthcare, health disparities, and emerging trends in patient vulnerability and population health. It also addresses the challenges faced by patients and providers navigating the failings of healthcare systems worldwide. Structured across four sections, the book delivers in-depth analysis and practical solutions.
The CGI community of students, faculty and alumni are sharing their voices and expertise as author contributors to the book, with Dr. Cara English, DBH, MA, LAC, PMH-C; Dr. U. Grant Baldwin Jr., DBH; and Dr. Ellen Fink-Samnick, DBH, MSW, LCSW, ACSW, CCM, CCTP, CRP, FCM as the editors.
