Lives Reimagined

Changing the Course of Psychotic Illness

Beschreibung

Lives Reimagined: Changing the Course of Psychotic Illness offers a powerful window into a transformative approach to psychotic illness developed by Dr. Rocco Marotta-a psychiatrist known for his successful treatment of "hopeless" cases-and practiced with remarkable success by the team he led at The Lodge program at Silver Hill Hospital in New Canaan, Connecticut. Written for families struggling to navigate the world of neuropsychiatric illness and useful for providers looking for a different approach to the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders, Lives Reimagined is filled with practical information interspersed with personal stories from patients, parents, and the treatment team, inspiring readers not to give up hope. It is an essential guidebook illustrating how sustained collaboration between clinicians, patients, and families can help individuals, once defined by their illness, change the narrative of their lives and develop hope for their future.

Autor

Lisa Mann, PhD, is a clinical psychologist, educated at Harvard University, New York University, and St. Luke's/Roosevelt Hospital Center in New York City. Licensed in both New York and Connecticut, during the past four decades, Dr. Mann has been involved in both teaching and clinical practice, directing the Training and Psychological Services, Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at St. Luke's/Roosevelt Hospital Center from 1992-1996, working as a lower school division psychologist at the Trinity School in New York City from 1996-2000, and seeing children and adults in her personal clinical practice. Her interest in the world of neuropsychiatric brain disease comes from both personal and professional experiences, and she is a passionate advocate of parent education in the field of mental health. Dr. Mann has always enjoyed writing. Her first book project was the posthumous compilation and editing of writings of her father, Robert Mann, the founder of the Juilliard String Quartet (A Passionate Journey: a Memoir). Collaborating with Katharine Cutts Dougherty, PhD, on Lives Reimagined: Changing the Course of Psychotic Illness, and working closely with the courageous patients, families, and staff who have dedicated their lives to this issue, has been an exciting and inspiring experience. Married to Rocco F. Marotta, MD, PhD, the director of The Center for the Treatment and Study of Serious Neuropsychiatric Disorders, the topic is never far from her mind. In her free time, however, Dr. Mann enjoys her three children and their spouses, and her two grandchildren, who light up her life. Dr. Mann is also an avid ballet dancer and knitter. She resides in both Ridgefield, CT, and Charleston, SC.
