Schema Therapy Adapted for Psychosis and Bipolarity - John Rhodes - Bog

This book explores how schema theory and therapy might be used in work with clients who suffer from psychosis, bipolarity and related symptoms.
The first part of the book features in-depth qualitative research fortified with first person testimonies examining the self-states or 'modes' of a person with psychosis or bipolarity. These self-states involve a range of features such as emotions, thoughts, motivations, and behaviours, which manifest as a pattern. Part two proposes the adaptation and application of Schema Therapy, a transdiagnostic approach targeting emotion and interpersonal functioning directly, to clinical work with these two groups.
Offering unique insights, this text will appeal to a range of practicing clinicians such as psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists and those with a special interest in psychosis or bipolarity.
