Hi all
I have come across an excellent article in the June edition of
Adviser (No 61) if anyone has access to this journal. The article by
Mary McSorley is called Debt and Mental Health. It discusses dealing
with debt clients who have mental health problems and how the
clients presents, using Schizophrenia as an example. She
provides several useful pointers such as helping to fill out DLA
forms, among much else. The article is also very helpful in
discussing how to work with disturbed clients, including body
language, verbal communication and counselling skills.
Hope it's useful
