Psychosis is a symptom, not a diagnosis, and it can be part of several mental health or medical conditions. It occurs when a person has trouble distinguishing what’s real from what’s not. Psychosis can come on suddenly or develop gradually and may be triggered by stress, trauma, sleep deprivation, substance use, or a psychiatric condition like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
Early intervention is key. With timely treatment, many individuals recover fully or learn to manage symptoms effectively.
Common symptoms of psychosis include:
Symptoms may be frightening or confusing, but treatment can help restore stability and improve day-to-day functioning.
We begin with a thorough virtual psychiatric evaluation to understand your symptoms, medical history, and potential causes. Our clinicians use structured interviews and psychological assessments to determine whether psychosis is related to a psychiatric condition, a medical issue, or substance use. In some cases, lab tests may be recommended to rule out underlying causes.
Our treatment approach is tailored to the individual, focusing on symptom reduction, safety, and long-term recovery.
