This is an inciteful and practical guide, written by clinical psychologist Xavier Amador, that addresses anosognosia—the common inability of people with severe mental illness to recognize their condition. Drawing on his own experience as both a clinician and a family member of someone with schizophrenia, Amador offers compassionate advice for helping loved ones accept treatment without coercion. No small feat when the symptomatic persons truly believe nothing is amiss.
The book introduces the LEAP (Listen, Empathize, Agree, Partner) approach, a communication strategy designed to build trust and reduce family conflict. It’s a must-read for anyone supporting a sibling or parent…
From Susan's list on schizophrenia capturing voices visions resilience.
