Schizoaffective Disorder
Schizoaffective disorder is a complex mental health condition that combines features of both mood disorders (such as depression or bipolar disorder) and schizophrenia, resulting in symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, mood swings, and impaired functioning. At Diamond Link Psychiatric Services, we provide comprehensive, individualized care to address both the psychotic and mood-related aspects of schizoaffective disorder.
- Dual Diagnosis Assessment: Thorough evaluation of both mood symptoms and psychotic features to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment.
- Medication Management: Tailored use of mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and antidepressants to treat both mood fluctuations and psychotic symptoms.
- Collaborative Therapy Referrals: Coordination with therapists for psychotherapy approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), to manage mood swings and psychotic symptoms.
- Crisis Intervention and Support: Plans to address acute symptoms, including emergency interventions and stabilization strategies.
At Diamond Link Psychiatric Services, we take a holistic approach to treating schizoaffective disorder. Our team combines expertise in both psychiatric conditions to provide personalized care that targets every aspect of the disorder. With a combination of medication, therapy, and continuous support, we help patients achieve better emotional stability and a higher quality of life
