Psychosis Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

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).

Losing touch with reality is more complicated than just trying to realign oneself with the external environment. To understand this experience, one must work to appreciate the subjective realities that illuminate these challenges.

Experiencing psychosis can be frightening and disorienting, both for the individual and their loved ones. At our practice, we provide expert assessment and treatment for conditions involving hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. Our compassionate team uses antipsychotic medications, cognitive support, and coordinated care to stabilize symptoms and promote recovery, always with a focus on dignity and respect.

I provide a tailored therapy approach for addressing psychosis that is based on your specific goals. I draw on evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (CBT).

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

Minneapolis has a progressive mental health culture with a high density of therapists, and the city saw sharply increased demand for trauma processing and grief work following the murder of George Floyd and the social upheaval of 2020. The city has a large Somali immigrant community as well as significant Native American, Hmong, and East African populations, with strong demand for therapists who specialize in refugee trauma, cultural adjustment, and identity. Minneapolis winters are long and severe, and therapists with experience in seasonal affective disorder and winter-related depression serve a real clinical need. Hennepin Healthcare and the University of Minnesota Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources alongside the city's extensive private practice community.
