Parents who experience psychosis: A qualitative exploration.
Claire I HarriesDebbie M SmithLynsey GreggRory AllottAnja WittkowskiPublished in: Psychology and psychotherapy (2023)
Novel insights into the role of misaligned parent and service priorities in parental perceptions of powerlessness, shame and disconnection from their children, valued parenting identities, and system supports are presented. Systemic interventions that target stigma, provide system-wide psychoeducation and promote person-centred, compassionate and meaningful connections between parents and the systems they live within are needed to promote better parenting outcomes.
