Our family dynamic was rocked with our son’s schizophrenia diagnosis. Getting necessary resources in place was an ongoing struggle. We recognized the value in CBT, but couldn’t find effective resources to assist, and so we struggled. Fortunately, we came across the New Directions in CBT for psychosis series. It was a lifesaver. We learned more about psychosis, how it shows up, and how it’s experienced by the person affected. This understanding was critical in developing new and more effective mindsets and approaches in our interactions with our son. We uncovered key skills to better deal with it, particularly in terms of communications strategies, which profoundly positively impacted on our ability to communicate more effectively with our son to the benefit of all involved. Perhaps more importantly, as our insights expanded, it gave us hope for a better future (for the first time since his diagnosis). I highly recommend the program for anyone who deals with someone suffering from psychosis.
