TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
Schizophrenia is a specific type of psychosis characterized by delusions and hallucinations. It is considered to be a thought disorder as opposed to a mood disorder such manic-depression (bipolar I and II). Anti-psychotic medications can be helpful initially to "clear" the mind, but I believe the most important aspect of the treatment is the psychoanalytic relationship over a number years. I believe schizophrenia, like all mental illness, is based in traumatic experiences for the individual and can best be dealt with treating the brain with nutrients and the mind with very careful talk therapy over a number of years. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Berkeley is home to the University of California, Berkeley—one of the world's great public research universities—and has a progressive, intellectually vibrant character and a community culture that is among the most therapy-positive in the United States, with an unusually high density of licensed therapists relative to population. The university's health services include counseling for enrolled students, and the academic and activist culture of Berkeley creates specific mental health pressures around perfectionism, imposter syndrome, political engagement, and the burnout of sustained social activism. The city's housing market is among the most expensive in the country, and financial precarity is a significant stressor for students, artists, and workers who value Berkeley but struggle to afford it. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, activist burnout, identity and social justice, anxiety, depression, and the complex emotional experience of living in a place with deeply held ideals about equity alongside the daily reality of inequality.
