Psychological Interventions in Early Psychosis provides a
comprehensive overview of the emerging research and clinical
evidence base for psychological treatments across the phases of
early psychosis. Beginning with identified at-risk young people,
the text continues through to those in acute and recovery phases,
to the needs of patients with persistent symptoms.



This practical treatment handbook:



draws upon the expertise of several internationally recognised
clinical and research programs

integrates reviews of the relevant research literature with
illustrative case examples

covers critical issues for the clinician in focal chapters on
suicide prevention, comorbid cannabis abuse, and family work

describes several modalities of treatment, such as multi-family
psychoeducation, group work, psychodynamic and cognitive
behavioural approaches.



Specialist early psychosis services are developing rapidly
worldwide. Psychological Interventions in Early Psychosis will be
an essential resource for clinicians and service leaders alike.
