Description
Cognitive behavioural therapy for those at risk of a first episode psychosis offers a new approach to preventing severe mental illness. This evidence-based psychotherapy has been shown to reduce the chance of transition to a first psychotic episode and to improve the chance for recovery. The book provides a comprehensive manual, illustrated by numerous clinical vignettes, that can be used to treat individuals with prepsychotic symptoms. It also includes links to online resources and exercises to be used in therapy and education. A multicentre randomized clinical trial investigating this new psychotherapy is described in detail. This handbook is an invaluable resource for clinicians, students, lecturers, and researchers working in mental health care, offering a detailed new psychotherapy that has been developed to address the precursor symptoms of psychosis and other severe mental illness.
