Psychosis
TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
Psychosis represents a separation from reality primarily as defense mechanism against overwhelming feeling states, most often anxiety and depression. In my experience, all psychosis is trauma based. While anti-psychotic medications can be initially helpful to "clear" the mind, it is the working through of the trauma, or traumas, that is the road to a lasting cure. Since I was trained as a Neuro-Psychoanalyst, I am able to intervene approaching both brain (with brain nutrients) and mind (psychoanalysis) in the treatment. I am recommending twice weekly sessions with a careful respect for why the psychosis is there for the patient. What is the role of the psychosis in preventing the patient from facing overwhelming traumatic experiences. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Psychosis
Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Experiences such as altered perception, confusion, or loss of contact with reality can be deeply disorienting. I work with individuals to create a steady and structured therapeutic space focused on grounding, understanding, and support. When appropriate, care is coordinated with other providers to ensure stability and safety while addressing the broader emotional experience.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Experiences such as paranoia, unusual beliefs, or perceptual changes can feel disorienting and isolating. Therapy provides a grounded, nonjudgmental space to make sense of these experiences, reduce distress, and strengthen coping and reality-testing in a collaborative way.

Psychosis
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Experiences that are often described as psychotic can feel disorganizing, frightening, or isolating, as if reality itself has become unreliable. In analytic work, we approach these experiences with care and curiosity, listening for their emotional meaning rather than rushing to dismiss or control them. Over time, this kind of work can help restore a sense of coherence, safety, and psychological continuity, allowing the mind to feel more inhabited and less alone with what it is carrying.
