Working effectively with individuals with a history of severe psychotic disorder and substance use is imperative in today’s complex healthcare environment. This comprehensive resource integrates cutting edge treatments into an accessible, non-jargon format, providing the tools necessary to address such a critical societal challenge. Providing prized insights into researching, theory building and clinical applications, this handbook offers clinicians, researchers, administrators and students an invaluable resource to adopt working at both personal and populations levels. Whether it be a comprehensive review of an intervention or new candidate for concept analysis, this intellectual adventure in psychiatry holds promise to make a real difference to individuals now living beyond the trauma of schizophrenic illness.
In this timely overview, Jean Addington brings together the latest psychological techniques for reducing the risk of psychiatric problems, covering the analysis of some individual cases who are considered as having a high probability of developing schizophrenia. Owing to current developments, more and more disorders are being recognised which produce so-called "ultra high" risks. This book highlights various other techniques being fully researched and utilised, aimed at alleviating these symptoms before a serious mental disorder sets in, even where it is unlikely that full-blown schizophrenia will result. Whilst the book attempts to intervene in serious cases, it is equally applicable for eliciting relief from early problems. It covers various issues encountered by these at-risk people in comprehensive chapters performed by specialists working in those specific areas. Chapters bestow special emphasis on moderation via psychotherapy, combined illness factors, habitual use of substances, familial action and membership experience.
