Our Mission is to help people with mental conditions shift their thinking and behavior so that they can lead extraordinary lives. We are dedicated to the concept that recovery does not have to be limited to 90% of full function; true recovery means doing the hard work that brings you to 150%! We help people turn their 'condition' into one that becomes an advantage instead of an 'illness' or a 'disorder.'

Practical yet profound, simple yet deep, in-the-moment yet timeless, Bipolar in Order provides a view of this condition that does not shy away from its devastating consequences but that does promote acceptance, insight, responsibility, and-ultimately-mastery. Although Wootton does romanticize serious mental illness, he and his collaborators provide the essential message that symptom reduction or elimination is far from the main goal of adaptation and intervention. Sure to challenge traditional thinking, this important book is integrative and wise.
