WELLFOCUS PPT for psychosis
Slade, Mike
Slade, Mike
Abstract
In this chapter we describe the development and evaluation of positive psychotherapy (PPT) for psychosis, which we call WELLFOCUS. The adaptation is analogous to the modification of standard cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to CBT for psychosis (CBTp) and addresses some overlapping issues, including the efficacy of developing meaningful relationships. WELLFOCUS is consistent with 'third wave' cognitive psychotherapy approaches (e.g. acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT)) in emphasizing strengths and values, and deemphasizing thought-challenging. It connects to an evolving understanding of well being in psychosis and the importance of a positive identity for recovery.
