Evidence-based tools for a fully customizable recovery plan--choose what works for you.

Your recovery from psychosis is a unique experience that encompasses many different emotions, including fear and frustration, confusion and hope, anger, and acceptance. Everyone experiences psychosis differently, and that's why The Psychosis Workbook offers customizable treatment strategies you can use individually or in combination with each other to overcome the challenges associated with psychosis and move forward on your recovery journey.

Combining proven-effective skills from cognitive behavioral therapy for psychosis (CBTp), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive remediation therapy (CRT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), this workbook provides a comprehensive set of tools to help you manage your symptoms, sustain your recovery, and achieve a better quality of life.

With this accessible, step-by-step guide, you'll learn:

  • Why you experience certain symptoms 
  • What's happening in your brain when symptoms occur 
  • How to cope with voices, paranoia, cognitive difficulties, and depression
  • How to overcome a lack of motivation and stigma
     

This validating workbook will help you treat yourself with compassion and respect, while empowering you with new knowledge and ready-to-use strategies to realize your potential and find meaning in your experiences.
