Filled with warmth, empathy, and hope, Becoming Whole systematically teaches the reader how to ease emotional pain in their life and in the lives of those they care about. Powerfully illustrated by "Sessions"—stories of patients in treatment, links to "Session Soundtracks" – popular music videos that elicit the emotions and themes of each lesson, and for the first time unveiling what goes on inside the heart and mind of a psychotherapist as they heal a patient's tangled heart, Becoming Whole is devoted to helping

• Someone suffering from emotional distress that just won't go away
• Patients in treatment who have not fully recovered
• Anyone wanting to improve their love relations
• Psychotherapists who want to better understand the Biopsychosocial Model of emotional distress

Proceeds from the purchase of each book will be used to help victims of child abuse.

Becoming Whole is the first book of its kind to offer insight into some of the most common emotional issues readers face at every life stage—from how to manage anger and entitlement in youth to how to keep love alive to how to manage "empty-nester" syndrome in middle-age. The book also offers a deep dive into the topic of childhood trauma and offers an empathetic voice of hope to readers who may have suffered this tragedy in their early lives. Each chapter is designed as a "Session," as if the reader was in treatment with Dr. Kehr, and is dedicated to a pressing issue and is vividly illustrated with the help of real-life patient stories of individuals whose pain and heartache was overcome with the help of therapy and medication. At the end of each Session is a workbook dedicated to helping the reader work through their issues and problems to ease emotional pain and find self-love.

Named a Washingtonian Magazine "Top Doctor" multiple years in a row, and a PharmaVOICE "100 Most Inspiring and Influential Leaders in the Life Sciences Industry," Dr. Kehr serves on the Board of the Institute on Aging at the University of Pennsylvania and served as its chairman from 2006 to 2009. Dr. Kehr received training in psychiatry at Tufts New England Medical Center, where he was Chief Resident; in neuropsychiatry at the VA Boston Healthcare System – Jamaica Plain; and in psychoanalysis at the Boston Psychoanalytic Institute. He practices psychiatry and psychotherapy using "The Biopsychosocial Model" to treat the "Whole Person," by understanding each individual's unique genetic, biological, psychological, social, and life-stage characteristics.

Dr. Kehr's life's mission is to bring mental health awareness and healing not only to his patients at Potomac Psychiatry, but also to a wider audience both within and outside the boundaries of his practice. For the last two years, he has written a weekly blog, and provides "Three Steps to Feel Better Today" at https://drbrucekehr.com/, where you can explore the most pressing  mental-health topics of our age, from psychiatric applications of genetic testing, to causes and possible solutions of opioid addiction, to subtle dangers of smartphone overuse, to the role of the microbiome and inflammation in depression and bipolar disorder, and much more. Both the blog and Becoming Whole aim to reach a wide readership with the ultimate goal of bringing hope, awareness, and tangible solutions to readers from all walks of life.
