Psychotherapies in Acute and Transient Psychoses

From a comprehensive and global view - psychological, biological and social-acute and transient psychoses could be considered identity breakdowns with fragmentation of its structure, paranoid mechanism and cognitive regression. Psychotherapies favour evolution of psychotic identity through disorder awareness and knowledge of aspects of patients that make them more vulnerable to psychotic experiences. We underline the key role of group psychotherapy to improve therapeutic relationships and best use of patient's coping strategies in the chronology of therapeutic interventions and recovery process of these patients.
