Psychosis Therapists in Dayton, OH

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.

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).

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).

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.

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

Dayton is an Ohio city with a distinctive dual identity as both a struggling post-industrial community and a city defined by innovation—the birthplace of aviation and home to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, one of the largest and most important USAF installations in the country—and this tension between decline and purpose shapes its mental health landscape in complex ways. The city was among the hardest hit by the opioid and fentanyl epidemic in the late 2010s, becoming a nationally recognized epicenter for drug-related deaths that prompted significant community response and transformed how local mental health services approach addiction and recovery. The University of Dayton and Wright State University bring student populations and academic resources, while Kettering Health and Premier Health provide behavioral health services to the broader community. Common therapy concerns include addiction and recovery, trauma (both opioid-related community grief and military trauma from the WPAFB population), anxiety, depression, and the economic stress of a city working to rebuild its identity after decades of industrial decline.
