Understanding Psychosis

Psychosis is a mental health condition characterised by a disconnection from reality. Individuals may experience hallucinations, delusions, and severe thought disturbances. Early intervention and effective treatment are crucial for managing symptoms and supporting recovery.

Treatment Approaches

Medication Management

Medications such as antipsychotics can help manage symptoms of psychosis. Our psychiatrists work closely with patients to find the most effective medication with the fewest side effects.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps patients identify and change distorted thinking patterns. This therapy is effective in reducing symptoms and improving coping strategies.

Supportive Therapy

We provide ongoing support to help patients manage their condition, cope with stress, and improve their overall well-being. Supportive therapy includes psychoeducation and skill-building activities.

Family Therapy

Involving family members in treatment can improve outcomes for patients with psychosis. Family therapy sessions focus on communication, support, and education about the condition.
