"“This is a valuable text for graduate-level courses in multiple disciplines that deal with assessment, evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment planning for serious mental illness. The authors provide an accessible combination of theories, research, concrete examples, and interventions. Corrigan’s strengths-based perspective is cutting-edge, supportive, and, most important, patient focused.""--Marc V. Felizzi, LCSW, PhD, School of Social Work, Millersville University of Pennsylvania ""Treatment alone is rarely sufficient to enable people who live with serious mental health conditions to achieve their goals in life. The comprehensively updated third edition of this book demonstrates the potency of psychiatric rehabilitation services and strategies for helping people achieve their goals and function in their desired community roles. Corrigan’s focus on the principles of personhood and self-determination shines throughout.""--Dori S.

The book covers a broad range of therapeutic and supportive services. Beyond skills training and individual interventions, the critical emphasis on combating stigma, increasing rights and access to resources, and advocating for equity and inclusion makes this book required reading. The text is extraordinary in its accessibility for learners at any level--especially graduate and professional students--and its relevance for courses across the mental health disciplines.""--Mark S.
