With chapters from professionals working primarily with children or adults, in different agencies and in specialist teams or in the community, the book illustrates the ways in which the needs of mentally ill parents and their children can be understood.The book outlines different theoretical approaches which may be in use alongside each other, including:A systems theory approach to work with families and with agencies;The psychoanalytic understanding of mental illness and its impact on family relationships and organisations;An educational approach to supporting staff, children and parents;A psychiatric or bio-medical model of workOut of the Mainstream considers how the diverse groups of agencies, specialist teams and groups in the community can work together, even when many barriers may hinder the effective co- working between individuals and these various groups. It will be an invaluable resource for psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, health visitors, mental health nurses, teachers and voluntary sector agency staff.

"The great strength of the book is in the wealth of detail provided, which both locates it in its particular setting, but also gives the reader the tools with which to construct a similar service, albeit it in a different location and with a different mix of agencies on the ground. It is a book that comes vividly to life through the wealth of case examples and vignettes. It is also the book I wish I had written - a similar but also different story, about the development of a Parental Mental Health Service in North Kensington." - Gabrielle Crockatt, Journal of Child Psychotherapy (Vol. 39 No. 3)"This book provides a timely and lively message about the levels of need amongst this group of two million families and the possibility for an appropriate response when services can link across boundaries. It is to be hoped that it will be read by clinicians working with both adults and children, and commissioners, so that the work so inspiringly and thoughtfully carried out and presented in this coherent and powerful can be carried forward through informed thinking about service provision." - Liv Darling, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (Vol. 27 No. 3)
