Psychological Interventions in Early Psychosis provides a comprehensive overview of the emerging research and clinical evidence base for psychological treatments across the phases of early psychosis. Beginning with identified at-risk young people, the text continues through to those in acute and recovery phases, to the needs of patients with persistent symptoms.
This practical treatment handbook:
- draws upon the expertise of several internationally recognised clinical and research programs
- integrates reviews of the relevant research literature with illustrative case examples
- covers critical issues for the clinician in focal chapters on suicide prevention, comorbid cannabis abuse, and family work
- describes several modalities of treatment, such as multi-family psychoeducation, group work, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural approaches.
