Description

Often misunderstood by both the public and the mental health community, psychosis is far more common than most realize and, more importantly, treatment has come a long way since the days of heavy medication and ECT. In fact, most people who receive adequate treatment go on to live healthy, productive lives with minimal distress.

The key to that treatment success is early intervention. Do you know the signs of psychosis?

Watch Dr. Chelsea Mackey, psychologist and psychosis expert, in this 3-hour recording that takes a deep dive into all things psychosis, from informal identification of psychotic symptoms to the latest evidence-based treatment approaches. In just three hours, you’ll learn how to:

  • Differentiate the needs of First Episode Psychosis (FEP) from chronic severe mental illness
  • Discover the difference between psychosis and dissociation
  • Decrease the impact of hallucinations and delusions on your client’s daily lives
  • Grounding strategies to combat even the most uncomfortable experiences
  • Increase tolerance and acceptance of uncertainty
  • And more!
