​First Episode Psychosis is focused on providing critically needed comprehensive treatment to individuals who are experiencing their first episode of psychosis. Treatment services are provided through a team of mental health staff focused on assisting clients with identifying their personal goals and needs for recovery that will allow them to return to functioning well at their job, school, home, and other areas of life.
This is accomplished through the collaborative work that the treatment team performs with the client, family, doctors, teachers, employers, and other significant people in the client’s life. The collaborative work includes providing information on the client’s psychosis and information on ways to reduce the barriers to the client successfully engaging in treatment and recovery.
