Psychosis can be triggered by severe anxiety, stress, trauma, physical conditions such as dementia, side effects from prescription drugs, substance misuse, and mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder. Another important contributing element is the chemical imbalance in the brain – some people are more vulnerable genetically which leads to the development of psychosis. Therapists and psychiatrists should also learn more about the family history of the individual when they come up with a treatment plan – in case close relatives of the person were diagnosed with psychotic disorders, it may make them more prone to psychosis.
The duration of psychosis treatment varies from patient to patient and depends on the severity of symptoms. With regular therapy sessions, adherence to a medication regimen, and lifestyle changes that allow the person to reduce their stress and anxiety, it is possible to see significant improvement over the course of one or two months. The recovery in a residential setting usually does not exceed a few weeks but to prevent relapses, an individual is strongly recommended to check in with a therapist occasionally and constantly monitor their own health to spot underlying issues that may become a big problem later on.
You should not delay a mental health consultation as soon as you start seeing and hearing things, experiencing bizarre thoughts, or exhibiting strange behavior you cannot control or later explain. Early intervention, diagnostic process, and treatment can make all the difference for a person with the symptoms of psychosis. Postnatal psychosis treatment, for example, is strongly advised as soon as a new parent shows any signs of psychosis to protect her and her newborn child from any danger.

Instead of implementing the same psychosis treatments over and over again, we will map out a treatment strategy that suits the needs of every patient who requires our assistance.
Individual therapy and medication will be the key components of treatment but all our clients are also encouraged to try alternative approaches to recovery and focus on their diet, lifestyle, and mental wellness as they regain control over their lives.

Psychosis is the common characteristic of all psychotic disorders and is usually triggered by substance use, sleep deprivation, brain injury, bereavement, or hormonal changes after childbirth.
We will pick therapy modalities after assessing the needs of the patient and learning more about their preferences and goals. For example, delusional psychosis treatment involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and group therapy for a more positive outcome.
You will establish a timeline of treatment with a therapist after you undergo a thorough assessment. Still, in most instances, treatment does not exceed a few months, especially if the patient is prepared to commit to recovery in a residential setting – Learn more on our Levels of Care page.
