Mutual Support and Mental Health
By:Maddy Loat
Published on 2011 by Jessica Kingsley Publishers
Mental health services tend to view and treat mental health problems in an individual-centric way.
This book argues for an alternative route to recovery that is cognizant of our social nature, needs and difficulties.
Focusing on the therapeutic value of meeting others with similar experiences, it explores how mutual support can help ease the distress of mental health problems and foster emotional and psychological wellbeing.
The author provides an overview of the theory, history and processes of mutual support, including how it can be understood from a developmental perspective and its importance in normalising and validating experiences and lessening feelings of isolation.
She provides in-depth summaries of various approaches that harness mutual support including group therapy and therapeutic communities.
Clear guidance is given on how to access, set up and facilitate mutual support groups, along with detailed information on services and organisations that utilise mutual support in the UK and beyond.
This book will provide both mental health professionals and those experiencing mental health difficulties with essential information on mutual support, and the positive impact it can have on people's lives.
