Psychosis
Suzanna Freerksen
Psychiatrist, MD
As a psychiatrist I am comfortable with prescribing medications as well as therapy. My psychiatry practice is focused on you and how you can best achieve your goals, whether that is medication, psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, or a combination of all three. Let's work together to help you get 'unstuck'. I have training in how to start antipsychotics, as well as how to taper off, if indicated. I believe in honesty, authenticity, and hope. When I worked in student health, I saw a lot of first break psychosis. There is no one-size-fits-all in mental health, and yet it only takes one psychiatrist to make a positive difference in your life. I want to be that positive support to you.

Psychosis
Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Losing touch with reality is more complicated than just trying to realign oneself with the external environment. To understand this experience, one must work to appreciate the subjective realities that illuminate these challenges.

Psychosis
Tabitha Echavarria
Psychologist, PsyD
Psychosis, including experiences like hearing voices can't hear, paranoia, or feeling disconnected from reality, can be confusing and isolating. I use a Recovery-Oriented Cognitive Therapy (CT-R) approach, which focuses on your strengths, values, and personal goals—not just symptom reduction. Together, we work to build a meaningful life beyond the diagnosis, increase your sense of agency, and develop practical strategies to navigate distressing experiences while staying connected to what matters most to you. I also provide education to loved one's to better understand what psychosis is and ways in which they can connect with their loved one even during difficult periods of mental health.

Psychosis
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Psychotic disorders can have a profound effect on people's lives. However, therapy can be a helpful addition to medication and other treatments. I have experience treating psychotic disorders using Psychodynamically-Oriented Supportive Therapy (POST) and other approaches. I have also published professional works on hallucinations and delusions. Please note that I only do individual therapy (i.e., not couple's or family therapy).
