Produktbeschreibung

Person Based Cognitive Therapy for Distressing Psychosis provides a practical framework for using a person based cognitive therapy approach for addressing the range of problems experienced by people with psychosis. The book begins with a context for the approach and then goes on to cover the clinical application of the approach.

---

In this innovative text, Paul Chadwick explores a person-based cognitive therapy approach for distressing psychosis. The book describes in detail a cognitive therapy that addresses distress associated not only with the meaning given to 'symptoms', but also schemata, the self, and how people relate to voices, paranoia, etc. A clear, practical and client-centred framework is provided for clinicians, which includes:
_ the use of Mindfulness for people with psychosis
_ 'two chair methods', developed by the author for working with psychosis
_ a detailed look at the ABC model applied to psychosis
_ guidelines for working with symptomatic beliefs
_ a new perspective on the therapeutic relationship and collaboration
_ a new approach to case formulation based in Vygotsky's concept of the Zone of Proximal Development
_ guidelines on the use of group therapy for psychosis.

Person-Based Cognitive Therapy for Distressing Psychosis is a practical and important resource for all academics and clinicians who work with people with psychosis, or have an interest in 'Third Wave' cognitive therapies.
