The Future of Mental Health drills to the heart of the current
mental health crisis, where hundreds of millions of individuals
worldwide receive unwarranted "mental disorder diagnoses." It
paints a picture of how mental health providers can improve their
practices to better serve individuals in distress and outlines
necessary steps for a mental health revolution. Eric Maisel's goal
is to inject more human interaction into the therapeutic process.
Maisel powerfully deconstructs the "mental disorder" paradigm that
is the foundation of current mental health practices. The author
presents a revolutionary alternative, a "human experience"
paradigm. He sheds a bright light on the differences between
so-called "psychiatric medication" and mere chemicals with powerful
effects, explains why the DSM-5 is silent on causes, silent on
treatment, and wedded to illegitimate "symptom pictures." Maisel
describes powerful helping alternatives like communities of care,
and explains why one day "human experience specialists" may replace
current mental health professionals. An important book for both
service providers and service users, The Future of Mental Health
brilliantly unmasks current mental health practices and goes an
important step further: it describes what we are obliged to do in
order to secure better mental health services-and better mental
health-for everyone.
