Erik Østenkjær is one of the world leaders in performance psychology and mental training. He is particularly interested in the mental development of young people.

In Erik's experience, most young people who have been diagnosed, are so on the basis of symptoms stemming from their family, so what is really beng diagnosed is the family. Erik believes it's time for parents to start looking at their own lifestyle if they want to change the mental health of their children.

In this book, he addresses a wide range of symptoms that children and young people are showing these days. In what is itself a comprehensive diagnosis, Erik addresses what diagnoses are, how they are used and their consequences for both children and families.

Diagnosis FAMILY Diagnosis is aimed at anyone on the receiving end of a psychiatric diagnosis, either as a family member or personally.

The book rebels against seeing the symptom carrier as ill, and rebels against the idea that society and educational institutions are responsible for the well-being and mental resilience of our children.

The book is for anyone looking for tools and inspiration to better equip them to help their children and young people lead mentally and psychologically healthy lives.
