Nice reviewed it`s guidance for the prevention and management of Psychosis last year and we all look forward to new guidance in 2016. Interesting to note the current recommendations for psychotherapy and psychological treatment are for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for at risk mental states, and and CBT and Family Therapy for psychosis. NICE does not support the use of other psychotherapies or counseling for these patients unless it is for a co-morbid condition where such psychotherapy is recommended.
