Product Description
Product Description
Traditionally, people with psychotic symptoms have been treated with anti-psychotic or neuroleptic drugs. While this approach is beneficial to a number of people, there are many for whom it is problematic. Recent recognition of these problems has led to the development of effective complementary treatments of a specifically psychological nature.
In Cognitive Behavioural Interventions with Psychotic Disorders leading researchers and practitioners in this area provide a comprehensive overview for all those undergoing related training in psychology and psychiatry, as well as nursing and social work.
The book provides a general background to cognitive treatment, and also discusses specific uses of the therapy in treating those who have hallucinations, as well as those with delusions and schizophrenia. The contributors also suggest how cognitive behavioural approaches can be integrated with other strategies such as pharmacological methods, or in the context of the family.

First Sentence
In the past few years a small number of researchers, mainly from Great Britain, have advocated the development of cognitive-behavioural interventions for psychotic patients,either as direct therapies for specific symptoms (e.g. Bentall et al., 1994a; Chadwick and Birchwood, 1994; Chadwick and Lowe, 1990; Fowler and Morley, 1989; Garety et al., 1994; Haddock et al., 1993; see Chapters 3,4 and 7 of this book); as a way of enhancing patients' coping skills (e.g. Tarrier et al., 1990; Tarrier et al., 1993; see Chapter 5 of this book); or as part of a normalising strategy designated to make patients more accepting of what would otherwise be disturbing experiences (e.g. Kingdom and Turkington, 1991, 1994; see Chapter 6 of this book).
