Abstract
This study examined alternative practice experiences based on a philosophy that respects the subjective experience of people with psychosocial disabilities to explore ways to strengthen the recovery-oriented practice capabilities of community mental health service providers. To this end, focus group interviews were conducted with 14 service providers who had learned Research and Mutual Help and narrative therapy and applied them in the field. A general qualitative research method was conducted to derive 5 major themes and 15 sub-themes. The main themes are ‘Recognizing the limitations of practice and facing the person as one person’, ‘Striving for a cooperative relationship with the person concerned’, ‘Struggling to support the person’s various recovery’, ‘Formation of a culture of alternative practice’ ‘Efforts are made for the future’, and education suitable for new attempts is desperately needed. Based on this, implications and suggestions for strengthening the capacity of mental health service providers in the community to practice recovery are presented.
