Yolette Demoliere Francois
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I provide respectful psychiatric care for individuals experiencing psychosis, including hallucinations, paranoia, unusual beliefs, or disorganized thinking. Evaluation focuses on symptoms, functioning, safety, medical factors, substance use, and previous treatment. Care may include medication management, education, relapse-prevention planning, family involvement when appropriate, and coordination with additional services.

Experiencing psychosis can be deeply frightening and isolating, but you are not alone. Estimates of percentages of people who experience psychosis range from as low as 1% to as high as 15% or more, though there remains a significant stigma attached. In movies and TV, individuals who experience psychosis might be depicted as aggressive or even violent, whereas, in reality, the majority of these individuals are much more likely to be victims of violence or prone to be taken advantage of and withdrawn from others.
The experience of psychosis can significantly impact our relationships, romantic or otherwise. However, our most current research and understanding identifies fostering relationships as one of the most effective means of coping with and recovering from psychosis. In the same way that difficulties with relationships, especially in youth, can be a contributing factor to the first onset of psychosis, positive relationships during and following an episode can help us overcome the logistical, practical, emotional, cognitive, and physical challenges often associated with such symptoms and related diagnoses.
Social relationships, including romantic relationships, are inherent to recovery. Whether you have experienced psychosis yourself, or if you have a loved one or close other who has experienced or is experiencing psychosis, you will find support at PCT!

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I approach psychosis with a compassionate and faith-based perspective, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to provide support and guidance. Recognizing the profound challenges faced by individuals experiencing psychosis, I create a safe and empathetic space that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on faith. Collaborating with other mental health professionals as needed, I work to help individuals and their families navigate the complexities of psychosis within the context of their Christian beliefs. While respecting the need for psychiatric intervention and medication, I address the spiritual and emotional aspects of the individual's experience. This holistic approach aims to support individuals in finding strength, hope, and a sense of purpose grounded in their Christian faith as they navigate the challenges associated with psychosis.

James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
I have worked psychologically with psychotic people for many years in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I have found this work to be intensely rewarding for me, and generally beneficial, sometimes lifesaving, for patients. I do not believe that psychosis is a purely biological disorder without meaning in itself. It is an extreme condition of confusion and alienation that requires intense empathic understanding, patience and ingenuity of the therapist. I like the concept of "spiritual emergency" for most cases of acute psychosis, and such states should be seen as profound bids for health and growth by someone who no other way to pursue those things. This is always my approach, and generally it has paid off.
