About Psychosis

Psychosis is not a medical procedure but a serious mental health condition characterized by a loss of contact with reality, often involving hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. A psychologist plays a crucial role in its management through comprehensive psychological assessment and psychotherapy. The psychologist's work involves conducting detailed clinical interviews, using standardized tools to evaluate symptoms, and providing evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Psychosis (CBTp). This therapeutic approach helps individuals understand their experiences, develop coping strategies, manage distressing symptoms, and improve overall functioning. The goal is to support recovery, enhance quality of life, and work collaboratively with psychiatrists for a holistic treatment plan that may include medication.

Regular therapy sessions (e.g., weekly or bi-weekly) are essential for building skills and monitoring progress.
Homework exercises between sessions help practice coping strategies in real-world settings.

PATIENT REVIEW

Aadya Davis, a 28-year-old junior architect,...

Aadya Davis, a 28-year-old junior architect, had always been high-achieving but intensely private. Over six months, she became convinced her colleagues were embedding secret, critical messages about her work in their emails and office chatter. She started hearing a faint, whispering voice commenting on her actions, calling her a 'fraud.' Sleep became elusive as she stayed up 'decoding' patterns in streetlights. Her work and friendships suffered. Her primary doctor, finding no physical cause, referred her to Dr. Vance, a psychologist specializing in early psychosis. Dr. Vance recommended a course of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for psychosis (CBTp) combined with family psychoeducation. In therapy, Aadya learned to test the reality of her beliefs and manage her anxiety without isolation. The journey was slow; some days she felt hopeless. Gradually, the whispers faded, and the paranoid meanings she assigned to everyday events lost their power. After a year, Aadya returned to work part-time with accommodations. She feels fragile but hopeful, describing therapy as 'learning to trust my own mind again.' Her emotional journey moved from terror and suspicion to cautious relief and a hard-won sense of safety within herself.
