In this innovative text, Paul Chadwick explores a person-based cognitive therapy approach for distressing psychosis. The book describes in detail a cognitive therapy that addresses distress associated not only with the meaning given to 'symptoms', but also schemata, the self, and how people relate to voices, paranoia, etc. A clear, practical and client-centred framework is provided for clinicians, which includes: * the use of Mindfulness for people with psychosis * 'two chair methods', developed by the author for working with psychosis * a detailed look at the ABC model applied to psychosis * guidelines for working with symptomatic beliefs * a new perspective on the therapeutic relationship and collaboration * a new approach to case formulation based in Vygotsky's concept of the Zone of Proximal Development * guidelines on the use of group therapy for psychosis. Person-Based Cognitive Therapy for Distressing Psychosis is a practical and important resource for all academics and clinicians who work with people with psychosis, or have an interest in 'Third Wave' cognitive therapies.
