Excellent new, informative and clear report on psychosis just produced by the BPS and edited by Anne Cooke. There is also a very user friendly version for children and young people. Highly recommended.

A sobering conclusion from this new review of psychotherapy outcomes: “Although most psychotherapies lead to better outcomes compared to control conditions, response rates are modest”
