Living with schizophrenia or experiencing psychosis can feel overwhelming, but effective treatment is available. Our schizophrenia treatment in NYC focuses on stabilizing symptoms and reducing psychotic episodes.

What Is Schizophrenia?

Schizophrenia is a complex mental health condition that affects how a person thinks, perceives reality, and experiences emotions. It can involve symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and social withdrawal, which may interfere with daily functioning and relationships.



While schizophrenia is a lifelong condition, it is treatable and manageable with the right care and support. Early diagnosis and consistent treatment can enhance your quality of life by improving stability and reducing symptoms.

What Is Psychosis?

Psychosis is a condition in which a person loses some connection with reality. It may include:


  • Hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there)
  • Delusions (strongly held false beliefs)
  • Disorganized thoughts and speech


Psychosis can occur as part of schizophrenia, but it may also appear in other mental health or medical conditions.


The good news is that psychosis is treatable. With timely, professional psychosis treatment, many people experience significant symptom relief and improved stability.

Access Schizophrenia Therapists and Psychosis Treatment in NYC

Effective schizophrenia and psychosis treatment often requires more than one solution. At Peace of Mind Psychiatry, we combine comprehensive medical expertise with individualized, coordinated care to help you move toward stability and long-term recovery.

Medication Management

Medication management includes assessing your psychiatric medication needs, selecting the most appropriate option, and carefully monitoring its effectiveness. Providers make adjustments to the medication or dosage when necessary and coordinate care with therapists, medical providers, and family members when appropriate. Learn more about our approach to medication management.

Medication is important, but so is therapy. They work in tandem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for psychosis (CBTp), for example, can help manage hallucinations, delusions, and stress. We also support family involvement and focus on strengthening independence and functional recovery.

Whole-Person, Coordinated Care

Healing involves more than symptom control. We may assess sleep, lifestyle habits, relationships, and other parts of daily life as part of our whole-person, patient-centered approach. Early intervention, crisis planning, and close collaboration and coordination with your broader care team help reduce relapse risk.

A combination of treatments is often most effective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for psychosis (CBTp), medication management, coordinated medical care, and family support can help reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and support long-term recovery.

Recovery involves consistent professional treatment that includes medication, psychological therapy, and ongoing social support. Early intervention and healthy lifestyle habits can improve daily functioning and long-term stability.

Treatment begins with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to understand symptoms, history, and goals. A personalized plan may include medication management, psychotherapy, relapse prevention, crisis planning, skill development, and ongoing support.

Offer calm support, listen without judgment, and encourage professional care. Helping them attend appointments, follow treatment plans, and maintain daily routines can significantly support recovery and stability.

Schizophrenia treatment is typically long-term. Medications may take several weeks to show full benefit, and ongoing care helps manage symptoms and prevent relapse over time.

Antipsychotic medications can have side effects such as fatigue, weight changes, dizziness, dry mouth, restlessness, or muscle stiffness. Our clinical team closely monitors treatment and adjusts medications to maximize safety and effectiveness.

While schizophrenia is a lifelong condition, many people experience significant improvement with proper treatment. Consistent care can reduce psychotic episodes and help maintain stability and independence.

Seek care if hallucinations, delusions, confusion, or withdrawal from daily life occur. Early treatment often leads to better outcomes and faster stabilization.
