Reviews
The Psychosis Workbook presents a comprehensive yet understandable explanation of psychosis. The authors have taken the mystery and fear out of the experience of psychosis, and replaced those with a clear and rational approach to help professionals understand the experience and those living with psychosis chart a path forward to health. The Psychosis Workbook is exceptionally clear, helpful, and complete. It should be required reading for all mental health clinicians.
A wonderfully comprehensive, well-researched, and non-stigmatizing guide to helping yourself with any form of psychosis. A truly person-centered and humanizing tool that fills a wide void in the market. As a psychosis community advocate and stabilized schizophrenic myself, I would recommend The Psychosis Workbook to anyone looking for support with their symptoms.
Although many textbooks and manuals have been written about psychosocial approaches for psychosis, there are few workbooks that are written directly for individuals with psychosis. This workbook offers a clear, accessible, and comprehensive approach to support individuals to draw upon a range of therapy approaches to enhance their own healing and recovery.
