Synopsis

A resource for planning psychosocial occupational therapy intervention. This edition provides a comprehensive description of occupational therapy and relevant psychological, social and cognitive therapies, plus "real-life" examples that contribute to the reader's understanding of the person and his or her mental health concerns as they influence the ability to engage in meaningful occupation. The text prepares students for mental health speciality and additionally applies psychosocial theories to practice in multiple contexts outside the field of mental health. It is a text grounded in the profession's belief that addressing psychosocial issues is at the "core" of all occupational therapy. The work describes three variables of person, activity and environment and aims to help the reader to understand the relationships among these variables as they are viewed by the theoretical models presented in the text. There is an overview of the evolution of mental health theory models which is designed to help the reader put information into perspective. Theoretical summaries are supplemented with bibliographies that the reader can explore and use as a springboard for finding evidence-for-practice. The theoretical and practice guides provided in the text act as a basis for clinical reasoning and help the reader in the selection of a particular frame of reference and the identification of intervention strategies.
