and endeavouring to prevent it’.

Family Interventions in Psychosis
How to create a powerful therapeutic milieu for the patient whilst simultaneously
supporting the family.
Even if a professional sees a patient for 1 hour per week, that is just 0.6 of one percent of the
patient’s time. By making major differences in the family’s behaviour, on the other hand, the
professional can help create a therapeutic milieu that surrounds and benefits the patient (and
the family) constantly. That is exactly what this course aims to achieve. It does so by (a) addressing
major areas we know to be important, such as the implications of ‘expressed
emotion’ research,
and (b) giving proper answers to questions that concern the family, like
how to support the
person in maintaining friendships.
A 3-day course for 6-16 people.

rival factions.

in mental health. Leaning on CBT, Motivational Interviewing and the Stages of Change, it advocates an integrated approach to Dual Diagnosis in 6 clear steps. You have a chance to practise and examine
these steps with prepared cases. Where appropriate it also examines practical issues such as the
inter-relationship between substance misuse services and mental health services and discusses how
to develop their working together.
