Abstract
This paper outlines the context in which I work, and then expresses my beliefs about treatment. The value placed on day care and multi-disciplinary teamwork is stressed. My treatment philosophy is explained and reference made to the ways we control the therapeutic setting. I argue for some of the more controversial aspects of our therapeutic activities and describe the roles of psychiatrist and psychotherapists in our work. It is hoped that these opinions which are candidly expressed will provoke a constructive debate on how we can all best help these challenging people.
