The Psychiatry of Resolving Schizophrenia Psychoanalytically - How Visualizing The Therapeutic Process Can Assist Success (Paperback)

The subject of schizophrenia tends to arouse people's deepest-seated fears of mental illness and this is especially so when it relates to a loved one or to personal experience. It therefore becomes particularly important that services organizing efficient, effective and capable care for individuals suffering from psychosis are available to them and their families. This book offers a scientific, explanatory, visual model of the mind affected by schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, the general pathway it follows when it receives remedial treatment with psychoanalytic psychotherapy, and a way of visually conceptualizing its resolution when treated by this method. This book tries to present visually the overall sum of the changes these schizophrenic minds undergo during remedial psychoanalytic psychotherapy. It hopes thereby to illustrate the overall nature of their changing internal capacities and strengths as they interact with their psychoanalyst during their recovery from their schizophrenia to become independent individuals. Summarizing this process emphasizes its completeness and reality, demonstrating it as a clinical phenomenon. The experience of psychoanalytic psychotherapy is outlined, along with personal attributes required of the patient. This book aims to illustrate the very real possibility for future flourishing that working through difficulties like these makes possible for patients who persevere.
