Psychosis Therapists in Fort Wayne, IN

I provide compassionate support for individuals experiencing psychosis, focusing on understanding and reducing distressing experiences. Together, we work on coping strategies, emotional regulation, and building routines to enhance daily functioning. My goal is to help clients regain stability, confidence, and a sense of empowerment in their lives.

Psychosis is a word that is used to describe a wide range of experiences. These experiences can include hallucinations (seeing things no one else can), delusions (hearing voices and messages that no one else can), feeling isolated, detached and anxious. I can help you make sense of your experiences, find ways to communicate with those around you about what you need, want or desire and develop strategies for addressing your symptoms without pathologizing you. You are having your own unique experience of being human. It's important to me that we not overlook that.

I offer a grounded, non-frightening space for individuals experiencing psychosis or unusual beliefs. My approach focuses on safety, relationship, and meaning-making without forcing agreement or disagreement. We explore how stress, trauma, or cultural context may shape your experience, and I support you in staying connected to daily functioning and trusted supports.

Rocker Health has experienced and competent staff to deal with these issues.

Psychotic disorders can have a profound effect on people's lives. However, therapy can be a helpful addition to medication and other treatments. I have experience treating psychotic disorders using Psychodynamically-Oriented Supportive Therapy (POST) and other approaches. I have also published professional works on hallucinations and delusions. Please note that I only do individual therapy (i.e., not couple's or family therapy).

Fort Wayne is Indiana's second-largest city and a hub for defense manufacturing, healthcare, and distribution logistics — an occupational mix that shapes a therapy culture in which shift work stress, workplace injury adjustment, and career identity are common themes. The city has a significant Burmese refugee community — one of the largest in the United States — creating important demand for therapists with cultural competence around refugee trauma, resettlement stress, and the challenges of navigating American systems. Parkview Health and Lutheran Health Network provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Fort Wayne's conservative faith community means spiritually integrated approaches are a prominent feature of the local therapy offering.
