Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Creative Mental Health Recovery
Robert Hurst, (Of · 2024
76/100
👍 Worth It
Proposing a C-CHIME framework that adds Creativity to the established recovery model is a genuinely useful scholarly move, and grounding it in both autoethnography and literature review gives the book a texture most academic texts lack. Very new as of late 2024, so the independent critical record is still forming — but Routledge publication and the editor credentials make this a solid bet for practitioners and researchers in mental health recovery.
