The Tidal Model represents a significant alternative to mainstream
mental health theories, emphasising how those suffering from mental
health problems can benefit from taking a more active role in their
own treatment. Based on extensive research, The Tidal Model charts
the development of this approach, outlining the theoretical basis
of the model to illustrate the benefits of a holistic model of care
which promotes self-management and recovery. Clinical examples are
also employed to show how, by exploring rather than ignoring a
client's narrative, practitioners can encourage the individual's
greater involvement in the decisions affecting their assessment and
treatment. The appendices guide the reader in developing their own
assessment and care plans. The Tidal Model's comprehensive coverage
of the theory and practice of this model will be of great use to a
range of mental health professionals and those in training in the
fields of mental health nursing, social work, psychotherapy,
clinical psychology and occupational therapy.
