Being diagnosed with schizophrenia can be a devastating experience.

Developed by Chris Healy, an experienced psychiatric nurse, it is a complete, educational resource that professionals and clients can work through together. The workbook is organised into six parts and provides an overview of schizophrenia, as well as discussing the possible causes, the symptoms, the treatments and how to cope with life post-diagnosis. Each section also includes assessment questionnaires, case studies and frequently asked questions. An invaluable resource for everyone involved with those diagnosed with schizophrenia. This workbook will also be welcomed by mental health students, carers and clients themselves. Online Resources: The workbook is available online, free to purchasers of the print version.
