This step-by-step manual presents a flexible, five-module
intervention programme to help clients with schizophrenia
understand their illness, recognise, monitor and cope with their
symptoms and reduce the impact of the illness on their lives. Using
a broadly psychoeducational approach, this book draws on recent
advances in the psychological understanding and management of
schizophrenia, such as cognitive-behavioural techniques, to enable
people with schizophrenia to cope with specific symptoms such as
auditory hallucinations. The detailed individual session guides
include session plans, handouts and education material. This book
also includes a full description of the range of available
assessment tools, their administration and interpretation. Such
assessments are useful in monitoring individual change and in
assessing treatment effectiveness. Aimed at mental health
professionals, including clinical psychologists, psychiatric
nurses, social workers and occupational therapists, the programme
can be used with individuals or small groups in a variety of
settings, such as secure hospitals, general psychiatric hospitals,
hostels, group homes, day centres and the client's own home. As
approximately one person in a hundred is likely to receive a
diagnosis of schizophrenia in their lifetime, this practical
photocopiable manual is a valuable resource for anyone working with
this client group.
