A Spectrum of Modalities for Treating Schizophrenia
Abstract
The author suggests there is a temporal sequence of therapies for schizophrenia, in a continuum of somatic, large-group, small-group, and individual modalities. The therapies arrange themselves in the same order when considered on the parameters of individualized care, treatment population, location, targets and goals, and techniques. By matching the four kinds of treatments, and their goals and areas of efficacy, with the schizophrenic's spectrum of changing needs, the clinician can determine what treatment is most appropriate for a patient at a particular time.
