Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Living with schizophrenia can present challenges with thoughts, perceptions, emotions, relationships, and daily functioning, but a diagnosis does not define the person. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we provide compassionate, respectful, and nonjudgmental counseling support for individuals navigating schizophrenia and related challenges. Our approach focuses on helping clients build self-awareness, develop healthy coping strategies, manage stress, strengthen emotional regulation, improve communication, establish supportive routines, and work toward meaningful personal goals.
We recognize that recovery looks different for every individual. Counseling can complement psychiatric care and other treatment services by providing a supportive space to process experiences, strengthen skills, and maintain connection with supportive people and providers. When appropriate and with the client's permission, we can collaborate with members of the broader treatment team to support continuity of care.
For clients who desire it, Christian faith can be thoughtfully incorporated into counseling through prayer, Scripture, spiritual reflection, and exploration of hope, purpose, identity, and personal strengths. You are more than a diagnosis. With compassionate support, appropriate treatment, and practical tools, individuals living with schizophrenia can pursue greater stability, meaningful relationships, and a fulfilling life.

Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include schizophrenia therapy, schizoaffective disorder support, psychotic spectrum disorders, symptom management, emotional regulation, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ living with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, including those navigating hallucinations, delusions, mood symptoms, and challenges in daily functioning. Many clients come to therapy feeling isolated, misunderstood, or uncertain about how to manage their symptoms while maintaining relationships, work, and independence. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and trauma-informed, supporting clients in developing coping strategies, enhancing insight, and improving quality of life. Therapy is a safe space to process experiences, build stability, and strengthen self-confidence while coordinating care with psychiatrists or other providers as needed.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
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!

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
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.
