Synopsis

Provides clinical guidelines for using affect-centered psychotherapy to help the severely mentally ill. Building on the work of prominent theorists like Bleuler, Jung, and Semrad, this accessible book explores the relationship between unbearable emotion and psychosis. This book looks at how affective "breaks" can precipitate psychotic episodes, explores the recurring emotional themes in psychosis, and examines the links between emotion, perception, cognition, and action.
