Mission To share our
experience in treatment which over the past 50 years has illustrated that there is hope even for the most severely regressed person with schizophrenia. To expose those who are considered to be
treatment resistant to an atmosphere of hope and a treatment model that considers the healthy parts of the individual as the important focus. To bring about change as a result of a strong
positive relationship between the individuals who participate in treatment, the patient and the treatment team.

A MUST read for professionals... A Fight to Be by Ronald Bassman, Ph.D. published in 2007 by Tantamount Press, Albany, NY 12203. www.ronaldbassman.com
I have the privilege of recommending this book for mental health professionals, patients, relatives and other interested parties. This wonderful work tells the reality of Dr. Bassman's fight from schizophrenia
to a world of a professional psychologist, psychotherapist, lecturer and writer who has conquered this disorder called schizophrenia and become a contributing person who is able to point out very vividly that there is
hope if one has the determination and purpose. This is an important contribution that needs to be read by those individuals whose lives have been touched by this condition. "Schizophrenia-Exploding the Myth" written by Nancy Mellor.

Did You Know? In October 1885 in the American Journal of Psychiatry, Pliny Earle M.D. published a statistical study
entitled ‘The Curability of Insanity’. In that study he points out the actual results of treatment, both foreign and domestic, it states unequivocally that many persons with severe mental illness did indeed
recover; from the first year to more than five years. In light of that reality-why is it that so many professionals consider these individuals without hope for recovery. Is it because they don’t
understand these conditions? Or perhaps they are not willing to put out the required treatment effort.
Jack Rosberg, founder and author of this website is available for consultation, training and teaching all over the world. Also, Rosberg began his career in 1954 and is considered to be a pioneer in the psychotherapy
of schizophrenia. In 1976 he founded a day care center and became the Clinical Director of the Anne Sippi Clinic a Residential Treatment Center in 1978. He is now Clinical Director, Emeritus of the
Clinic and Executive Director of the Anne Sippi Foundation. He has treated and trained professionals in 22 countries and continues to work in that capacity. The Board of
Directors of the Anne Sippi Foundation is considering the development of an Association that will focus on developing through Training more effective treatments for schizophrenia and related disorders.
