This book shows how psychological and social interventions can help
people with psychosis. It brings together both theoretical chapters
that contribute to the reconceptualization of psychosis and
clinical cases illustrating how contemporary psychotherapeutic
intervention models can be applied in the treatment of this mental
health condition, with reflections, strategies and practical
guidelines demonstrating how these models can inform professional
practice in mental healthcare.  Chapters brought
together in this volume aim to reflect a paradigm shift in
psychosis care. They present person-centered models that lead to a
way of seeing, understanding and treating psychosis that is very
different from the traditional biomedical model. Current authors
and approaches are revolutionizing an outdated model trapped in
purely pharmacological actions and tautological explanations of a
biological nature, where symptom control is the basic and
fundamental form of approach, and in which psychotherapeutic
actions take second place as subsidiary to the former. Approaches
such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Acceptance and Recovery
Therapy by Levels, Open Dialogue, Compassion-Centered Therapy or
the Hearing Voices movement, to name but a few of those presented
in this book, represent a journey of self-knowledge and learning
for those recovering from psychosis, and have an intense
transformative potential for the therapeutic team. The fundamental
principle that guides this book is to share models belonging to
psychology that aim at personal development while respecting the
needs, values and goals of each person, and that can be adopted by
any professional or student of clinical psychology, psychiatry,
nursing, social work or any other discipline searching for more
humanistic approaches to treat psychosis.
