Parental psychiatric disorder

Parental Psychiatric Disorder presents an innovative approach to thinking about and working with families where a parent has a mental illness. Issues around prevalence, stigma and systems theory provide a foundation for the book, which offers new paradigms for understanding mental illness in families. The impact of various parental psychiatric disorders on children and family relationships are summarised, including coverage of schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, substance abuse disorders, eating disorders, personality disorders and trauma. Multiple innovative interventions are outlined, targeting children, parents and families, as well as strategies that foster workforce and organisational development. Incorporating different theoretical frameworks, the book enhances understanding of the dimensions of psychiatric disorders from a mult-igenerational perspective, making this an invaluable text for students, researchers and clinicians from many mental health disciplines.Parental Psychiatric Disorder presents an innovative approach to thinking about and working with families where a parent has a mental illness.
