Welcome to Kirinaran Publishing |

This website presents two pamphlets that may assist people who are
dealing with suicidal thoughts or with schizophrenia. The pamphlets are
unique as there is nothing comparable available in the current health
system.
Health or other professionals wanting to use these resources can order
the pamplets through the order form and contact numbers provided.

 Toughin'
It Out is based on years of counselling and on my own personal
experience.
The pamphlet exposes the way that suicidal thoughts work. This gives the consumer strategies to control the thoughts and to
arrange their environment to diminish the likelihood of self-harm.
The
pamphlets are designed to be handed to the consumer or to be placed
with other health promotion material. A decision to recommend hospital
admission should be taken independent of the pamphlet.

 Working with people with schizophrenia
can include moments of success but at times it can be chaotic and
stagnant. During these times, you can wonder what you are doing as a
therapist and which way you are going.
Using the ideas of Michael
White's narrative therapy, for the last 15 years I have been using a
visual model to help keep my work focused.
Roadmap to Recovery from Schizophrenia moves away from psychobabble and attempts to put problems into areas
in which consumers already have expertise.
