Traditionally, people with psychotic symptoms have been treated
with anti-psychotic or neuroleptic drugs. While this approach is
beneficial to a number of people, there are many for whom it is
problematic. Recent recognition of these problems has led to the
development of effective complementary treatments of a specifically
psychological nature.
In Cognitive Behavioural Interventions with Psychotic Disorders
leading researchers and practitioners in this area provide a
comprehensive overview for all those undergoing related training in
psychology and psychiatry, as well as nursing and social work.
The book provides a general background to cognitive treatment, and
also discusses specific uses of the therapy in treating those who
have hallucinations, as well as those with delusions and
schizophrenia. The contributors also suggest how cognitive
behavioural approaches can be integrated with other strategies such
as pharmacological methods, or in the context of the family.
