Schizophrenia Therapists in Renton, WA

If you're living with schizophrenia, I can help provide you with structured, supportive care. In our sessions, we'll focus on holistic and functional approaches to help you achieve stability. We'll also build routines, engage in thoughtful medication management and psychotherapy, and work toward improving emotional wellbeing. We'll also include your family if it's appropriate in order to create a strong support network.

We support individuals living with schizophrenia using Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Psychosis (DBTp) to build coping skills, emotional regulation, and stability. Therapy is paired with coordinated case management to help clients connect with psychiatry, medical care, and community supports, creating a collaborative treatment team focused on long-term wellness.

Managing schizophrenia requires consistent, skillful use of antipsychotic medication and integrated care. Our practice specializes in long-term medication management for schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders, helping patients stabilize symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. We work closely with families, case managers, and therapy providers to support holistic care, improve adherence, and reduce hospitalizations.

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

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.

Renton is a King County city south of Seattle home to Boeing's 737 final assembly lines, and an increasingly diverse suburban community that has grown rapidly as housing costs in Seattle and Bellevue have pushed residents further south. The mental health landscape reflects both the occupational stresses of high-precision aerospace manufacturing—particularly given Boeing's high-profile quality and safety challenges in recent years—and the identity and community challenges of rapid demographic change, with significant Vietnamese-American, Somali, East African, and other immigrant communities finding housing more accessible here than in the city. Valley Medical Center's behavioral health programs and a growing private therapy sector serve the community. Common therapy concerns include aerospace manufacturing workplace stress, immigrant and refugee mental health, economic anxiety as housing costs rise, and the challenges of building community in a rapidly changing suburban landscape.
