Psychotherapy as a Treatment for Psychosis

The book discusses the relationship between trauma and psychosis, highlighting that psychotic symptoms often stem from disguised memories of traumatic experiences. It argues that the Bayesian brain, constantly manufacturing a false reality, requires psychotherapy to correct its misperceptions as another trusted mind is necessary to help a patient out of a psychotic state. This predicts the inevitability of psychotherapy as a treatment for psychosis. The second part of the book will present 50 case examples with patient transcripts to further illustrate these concepts.
