Abstract
The belief that persons with mental illness or substance use disorders can lead productive and satisfying lives has been part of the philosophic core of community psychiatry for many years and was practiced most notably in psychiatric rehabilitation paradigms through the latter part of the twentieth century. A concept of “recovery” has been a mainstay of the addiction community for many years. This chapter traces the evolution of recovery concepts for emotional health disorders with particular emphasis on its rapid development since the beginning of the new millennium. Although recovery means different things to different people, the most common elements of its definition are considered along with an examination of its trajectory. Resiliency and its relationship to recovery will be discussed in relationship to their universal applications. The chapter provides descriptions of recovery-oriented services and how clinicians can facilitate the recovery process. It concludes with a consideration of how systems can implement recovery-oriented care, begin a transformation process, and monitor its progress.
