Schizophrenia is a mental health condition that causes interruptions in reality, including psychosis (delusions and hallucinations), impaired motor skills, and disorganized thinking. Untreated schizophrenia can be detrimental to a person’s overall health. Treatment for schizophrenia usually combines medications and individual therapy.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions for schizophrenia involve maintaining awareness of reality, managing side effects of medications, normalizing thought patterns, practicing social and interpersonal skills, and processing emotions related to the condition.
