Santa Clara, California therapist: Suzanna Freerksen, psychiatrist
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.

Valencia, California therapist: TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA, licensed psychoanalyst
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.
