by Emma Watson (Editor), Sara Meddings (Editor)
In recent years, the concepts of peer support, self-help and self-management have moved from the periphery of mental health care toward the centre and have fast become mainstream approaches to supporting well-being. This book provides an overview of the core concepts and an appreciation of the complexities, controversies and applications of each concept.
National policy initiatives have put peer support at the heart of mental health service provision and it's now a component all of all mental health training.
