Description
Recovery has been the most important concept and ideology in working with clients with mental problems. In 2004, recovery was adopted by the United States Federal government as the guiding principles in mental health services and intervention. Resilience has also been an uprising concept in working with children, adolescents and families which are facing hardships, sufferings and traumas. Comparing these two crucial definitions, one may easily discover that recovery and resilience both focus on the individuals' ability to actualise their potentials, to work through difficulties and hardships. Also, both concepts stress that individuals' struggle and journal of healing can help them live with and cope with obstacles in the environment. Finally, this book examines how these two concepts emphasise that individuals can live fully according to their own views and life.
