Understanding schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a mental health condition that can involve psychosis, meaning changes in perception, thinking, or beliefs. Symptoms typically fall into three categories: positive symptoms (like hallucinations and delusions), negative symptoms (like low motivation or reduced emotion), and cognitive symptoms (like difficulty concentrating).
Symptoms often begin in the late teens through early adulthood, but they can appear later as well. When treated early and consistently, many people learn to manage symptoms and build stable, meaningful routines.
When it may be time to get help
Consider reaching out if you notice hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, increasing paranoia, social withdrawal, or a sharp drop in daily functioning. It is also important to seek support if symptoms are affecting safety, medication adherence, housing stability, or substance use.
What schizophrenia treatment can include
Comprehensive evaluation
We assess symptoms, history, and current needs to build a plan that is realistic and supportive.
Medication management
Psychiatric care can reduce psychosis symptoms and help support steadier sleep, mood, and focus.
Therapy and skill building
Therapy supports coping, communication, stress management, and insight for navigating symptoms.
Supportive care structure
Groups, routine building, and planning help improve function and reduce risk of relapse.
How we approach schizophrenia treatment
We approach schizophrenia with consistency and respect. The goal is to reduce distress, improve stability, and help you function better day to day. We focus on what is happening now, what tends to trigger symptom changes, and what support helps you stay grounded.
Treatment may include psychiatric services, individual therapy, group support, CBT based strategies for psychosis, family education when appropriate, and holistic supports like mindfulness or yoga. If substance use is present, we can coordinate care for co occurring needs so treatment is integrated.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is schizophrenia?
Schizophrenia is a mental health condition that can affect perception, thinking, emotions, and behavior. Symptoms may include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, reduced motivation, and cognitive difficulties.
What are early warning signs?
Early signs can include social withdrawal, changes in sleep, trouble concentrating, unusual beliefs, increasing paranoia, neglecting self care, or a noticeable decline in school or work performance.
Is schizophrenia treatable?
Yes. Many people experience meaningful improvement with consistent treatment. The focus is symptom management, stability, and building routines that support long term function.
Does treatment always include medication?
Medication is often an important part of schizophrenia treatment because it can reduce psychosis symptoms. Therapy and skill building are also important, and care is individualized based on needs and history.
What therapies help with schizophrenia?
Therapy can help with coping skills, stress management, communication, and building insight. CBT based approaches for psychosis can also help people relate differently to distressing thoughts and experiences.
What if substance use is involved?
Substance use can worsen symptoms and increase relapse risk. If both are present, integrated care that addresses mental health and substance use together tends to produce better outcomes.
Do you offer inpatient and outpatient options?
Yes. We offer multiple levels of care, including inpatient, PHP, IOP, and outpatient therapy. The right level depends on symptom severity, safety, and support at home.
How long does schizophrenia treatment take?
There is no one timeline. Some people need higher intensity care during acute symptoms, then step down to ongoing outpatient support. The goal is stability and a plan that continues.
What should I do during a mental health crisis?
If someone is at risk of harm, cannot care for themselves, or is experiencing severe psychosis, seek immediate help. Call 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline or go to the nearest emergency room. You can also reach out to our team for guidance on next steps.
Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Your privacy matters, and care is handled with discretion. If you have questions about confidentiality, we can explain the process clearly before you begin.
