I also work with what is sometimes called psychosis and/or other dissociative states.
People often come to psychotherapy or psychoanalysis when they have something they need to speak about, and a psychoanalytic approach provides a space to express oneself in front of another. Aspects of one’s experience in the world sometimes feel suppressed, confused, we behave in ways we don’t understand. Speaking about that in the context of a psychoanalytic treatment can evoke rather inaccessible parts of this experience with a clinician who listens to slips, dreams, histories, aspects of sexuality, aggression, identity.

I have previously worked with adolescents and adults experiencing difficulties of daily living, such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, as well as survivors of trauma and persons experiencing psychosis.
"I have commanded foreign words to explicate the native in me, all the while obfuscating what was, but was not, could not be, spoken. And what of words? I have spoken in multitudes and platitudes. I have harbored thoughts and feelings with no hope of setting them off to sail in these words. All words but my own. There are, and always will be, two ways to tell my stories. I shall strive to choose dis-cordingly. There once was word where my innards stood. First there was word. After word there was silence. ..."

Being the mother of an adult child who has schizophrenia, major depression, bipolar disease, or substance use disorder is stressful.
The groups are for 10 weeks. Group members get tremendous relief by connecting with other women who are not judgmental and really "get it" because they have lived it. The groups are structured and offer psycho-education about the stressors of mothering in later life. Balancing your needs as you age, with your vulnerable adult child's needs is difficult.

Psychosis Therapists
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
