What is the goal of counseling for schizophrenia?

Living with schizophrenia can feel like you're in a movie with a strange script and a set of rules that no one else can see. The goal of counseling isn’t to tell you that your reality isn’t real; it's to help you find your footing in a world that can feel confusing and overwhelming. We work together to help you understand your thoughts and feelings, build a sense of self, and find a sense of peace and security. We believe in your capacity to live a full life, and we are here to help you get there.

What are some common challenges that people with schizophrenia face?

Living with schizophrenia can feel like you are on an unpaved road. It can be challenging and unpredictable. You may struggle with disorganized thoughts, hallucinations, or delusions, and it can feel overwhelming. We understand these challenges. We can work together to help you build a set of tools to create a sense of control and empowerment in your life, so you can continue to move forward with confidence.

How can a person with schizophrenia live a normal life?

Yes! With the right support, it is absolutely possible to live a fulfilling life with schizophrenia. The journey is challenging, but you can learn to manage your symptoms and find a sense of peace. The most effective treatment is a comprehensive approach that includes medication and counseling. We believe in your capacity to live a full and meaningful life, and we're here to help you every step of the way.

What is the difference between schizophrenia and psychosis?

Psychosis is a symptom, like a fever. It’s a temporary state where a person loses touch with reality. Schizophrenia is a chronic disease that involves episodes of psychosis. Think of it this way: everyone gets a fever sometimes, but a fever isn't always a sign of a chronic illness. We'll help you understand your unique experience and develop a plan to take control.
