LEAP Community Education

LEAP (Listen-Empathize-Agree-Partner) is a set of evidence-based practices that create therapeutic alliances and trusting relationships with people suffering from severe mental illness. Designed to build and strengthen mutual respect, it helps people who are non-adherent, or partially adherent, to become more cooperative and engaged in treatment and services, including medication, psychotherapy, psychosocial programs, club houses, peer-support, and supervised housing.

Training Goals:

  • Identify anosognosia vs. denial
  • Reduce defensiveness, anger, and resistance
  • Gain cooperation and compliance
  • Re-establish trust and develop relationships
  • Create an alliance with the mentally ill person and work towards common goals
