This is something we like to support in collaboration with a functional primary/specialized physical health care provider -- we can work with providers that are western based or of different cultural/traditional backgrounds. Sometimes the care is functional, sometimes a person is reacting to something the body is reading as toxic, sometimes its from vitamin deficiencies, lack of co-factors, competing receptor binders,... or accelerants to vitamin excretion before it can be utilized, sometimes its TBI/PCS or other injury based, sometimes its drug/substance elicit or not elicit induced...Sometimes it's not psychosis and it's actually an RA survivor recovering torture memories. In some traditions it's part of a cultural process that needs honoring...It's best to really take care with the evaluation and be sensitive with history and cultural context when offering care or adjunct care.

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.

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.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
