What is Schizophrenia?
Schizophrenia is a complex and chronic mental health condition that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It is often marked by episodes of psychosis, including hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there), delusions (false beliefs), disorganized thinking, and emotional withdrawal. Contrary to popular belief, schizophrenia is not a “split personality,” but rather a disruption in the way the brain processes information.
At AYEBS, we view schizophrenia with understanding and compassion—not judgment. We believe that with the right care and support, individuals living with schizophrenia can manage symptoms, maintain independence, and lead fulfilling lives.
How Does Schizophrenia Care Work at AYEBS?
At AYEBS, we offer comprehensive and individualized care for those living with schizophrenia. Our approach combines medical treatment, therapy, and community-based support to ensure long-term stability and recovery.
Here’s how we support our clients:
-
In-Depth Psychiatric Assessment: Our team begins with a thorough evaluation to confirm diagnosis and understand each client’s symptoms, history, and unique challenges.
-
Medication Management: Antipsychotic medications play a key role in managing schizophrenia. Our psychiatric providers work closely with clients to find the most effective and tolerable medication regimen.
-
Individual & Group Therapy: We provide evidence-based therapies to improve insight, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. This may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for psychosis (CBTp), psychoeducation, and social skills training.
-
Ongoing Monitoring & Support: Our care doesn’t stop at the clinic. We offer consistent follow-up, crisis intervention support, and case management to help clients maintain stability.
-
Family & Community Involvement: We work with families and caregivers to provide education, reduce stigma, and foster a supportive environment for recovery.
