The Path to Mental Health Recovery

This book explores what we mean by recovery in mental health, providing a deeper, evidence-based understanding of the concept. It amplifies the voices of users and families and equips practitioners with the necessary knowledge and language to engage in recovery-oriented practice. Recovery is a prominent term in mental health practice, but the word conceals multiple meanings, including biomedical, social tool, and humanistic perspectives.This book exposes this diversity in interpretation, exploring the foundational psychosocial understanding of recovery, contrasting it with the psycho-political concept, and offering critical insights and actionable strategies to integrate these perspectives into mental health practice, all grounded in empirical examples and theoretical perspectives. This thoughtful book looks at how theory and research around recovery can be moved into practice. It is suitable for students and practitioners in mental health from a range of fields, including nursing, occupational therapy, anthropology, psychology, psychiatry, and family therapy.
