A mental health insider has written a book that blasts the mental health industry. The book, "Adventures in a Mental Health Center", is written by Jim Koepke. Koepke is an experienced mental health administrator. He is the founder of the national Mensa Mental Health Interest Group.
While most books about this subject are grim and filled with boring statistics, the author uses dark humor to engage the readers interest.
While some have termed this book a scathing indictment of the mental health care industry, the author states that most mental health professionals who have read the book - love it. The author states that most therapists and doctors realize the system is flawed and believe this book will encourage thought and discussion about the need for quality mental health services.
Although the book is fiction the story is realistic. It focuses on common problems found in mental health clinics everywhere. Therapists have praised the book for it's insight and humor. A psychologist told the author - "Any therapist who doesn't like this book must have a very guilty conscience about something."
The underlying theme in the book is - hope. There is always hope, no matter how dark things may appear.
The author hopes that his book will encourage thought and discussion about the need for improvement in the mental health care system.
The author is Jim Koepke, M. A.. The book can be ordered through local bookstores, Amazon. com or PublishAmerica. com.
