Psychosis can be disruptive to life. It is a symptom. In my experience, drug induced psychosis is very common and not often considered. I see this frequently as the result of substance use.
When choosing a therapist, it is important to find someone that will understand your situation. Likewise, you want to feel at ease when sharing your feelings and thoughts. My goal as a psychotherapist is to work as a team to explore alternative ways to deal with challenges. I have advanced training in Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical-Behavioural Therapy (DBT). For further information, please feel free to contact me and receive a prompt reply.
I provide compassionate support for individuals experiencing psychosis, using evidence-based approaches to enhance coping skills, self-awareness, and emotional stability in their journey toward recovery.
Experiencing psychosis can be frightening and disorienting. I bring a wealth of knowledge and empathy to help you navigate these challenges. My approach is grounded in creating a safe, supportive environment where we can work on understanding and managing symptoms, fostering stability, and enhancing your quality of life.
Psychosis refers to a collection of symptoms that affect the mind, where there has been some loss of contact with reality. During an episode of psychosis, a person's thoughts and perceptions are disrupted and they may have difficulty recognizing what is real and what is not. This can create anxiety when the person stabilizes.
