Our compassionate clinical teams provide personalized support to ensure that you receive the counseling services needed to improve your quality of life. You can find us in California, Washington, and Virginia.
Our mental health treatment facilities provide psychotherapy and medication management services for a range of psychiatric conditions, including personality disorders and dual diagnoses. Mental health conditions are often complex and require personalized care for long-lasting and effective results. Personality disorder therapy is available at our various treatment facilities. Let’s take time to understand schizoid personality disorder and treatment approaches you may come across at an AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center.
Schizoid personality disorder is a condition that is known for patterns of detachment from relationships and having little, if any, interest in forming new relationships. Others may feel as though you’re rejecting relationships because you don’t show emotions. This may also make others feel as though you don’t care about things that are going on around you.
Schizoid personality disorder symptoms often begin in early adulthood and can affect several areas of your life. This personality disorder is not as common as other personality disorders but is more prevalent than schizophrenia. Symptoms and signs of schizoid personality disorder do resemble other mental health conditions and may be mistaken for autism or other personality disorders.
The causes of schizoid personality disorder are not fully understood, but genetics, early childhood experiences, and biological factors may contribute. A family history of personality disorders, emotional neglect, or limited social interaction during childhood may increase the risk. Additionally, certain personality traits and environmental factors could play a role in its development.
As one of the least common personality disorders, schizoid personality disorder affects up to 4.9% of adults. Studies have also indicated lower prevalence rates in some cases. A 2005 study indicated that 1.4% of those receiving outpatient psychiatric treatment are living with schizoid personality disorder.
Schizoid personality disorder is a condition that affects individuals in various demographics. It is more common among females and often begins in early adulthood. Individuals who have family members living with a personality disorder are more likely to have a personality disorder themselves.
Studies have indicated that schizoid personality disorder is one of the least common personality disorders, with prevalence rates falling between 0.0% and 4.9% among various studies. We do know that this condition is more common among men and is often underdiagnosed. This means that the true prevalence of this condition may be higher than studies have indicated.
This is a highly individualized condition, which means that there are notable differences among those living with schizoid personality disorder. If you find yourself relating to some of the previously discussed symptoms of schizoid personality disorder, we invite you to contact the admission counselors at AMFM to explore your observations. We can review psychotherapy options that can help improve your social functioning.
Even with the research that has been done, we do not know the exact schizoid personality disorder causes. It is believed that environment and genetics play a role in the development of this condition. We do know that several risk factors can increase your risk of developing schizoid personality disorder, including:
Schizoid personality disorder is more frequently diagnosed in men than in women, with a prevalence of up to 4.9%, according to Psychology Today. Classified as a Cluster A personality disorder, schizoid personality disorder is characterized by eccentric behaviors and unusual thought patterns. These traits can affect interpersonal relationships and emotional expression.
Schizoid personality disorder is less common than obsessive-compulsive, paranoid, and antisocial personality disorders but more prevalent than avoidant, histrionic, and dependent personality disorders. Those with schizoid personality disorder often find comfort in relationships based on work, intellectual activities, and expectations rather than emotional intimacy.
We see the value in having an understanding of your mental health concerns before choosing a treatment provider. It can be challenging to determine which treatment you need on your own. Because of this, AMFM offers complimentary assessments as a part of our admission process.
At the end of your professional assessment, we will provide you with an understanding of your mental health symptoms and a referral to an appropriate treatment program. This is a standard component of our treatment program that is available to anyone in need of guidance and support in their mental health journey.
There are several schizoid personality disorder symptoms that you may notice if you’re living with this condition. You likely have a hard time expressing emotions, which can create misunderstandings within relationships. It is also not uncommon to have co-existing depression. Below, we’ve briefly elaborated on some common symptoms and signs of schizoid personality disorder.

Symptoms of schizoid personality disorder have distinct differences from symptoms associated with schizophrenia spectrum disorder. To begin, schizoid personality disorder is known for emotional detachment and withdrawal, whereas schizophrenic disorders often involve psychotic symptoms like hallucinations and delusions. Those living with schizoid personality disorder are in touch with reality compared to schizophrenia, which is known for causing distortions from reality.
Schizoid personality disorder treatments focus on improving social and emotional functioning in a behavioral health treatment setting. Conversely, schizophrenia spectrum disorders often require psychiatric care in an inpatient treatment setting. Furthermore, schizoid personality disorder medication doesn’t involve specific pharmacological therapy for the condition itself. They may be prescribed to help manage symptoms related to anxiety, depression, or related symptoms. Doctors often prescribe antipsychotic medications to treat schizophrenia.
Social anxiety disorder and schizotypal personality disorder may initially appear similar to schizoid personality disorder. A key difference between schizoid personality disorder and social anxiety disorder is that social anxiety disorder involves a fear of being judged in a social setting that causes significant distress. This is not a concern for those living with schizoid personality disorder.
Schizotypal personality disorder is also a personality disorder; however, this condition is known for having odd beliefs, behaviors, and thought patterns. These are not commonly found among those living with schizoid personality disorder. Additionally, schizotypal personality disorder does have similarities with schizophrenia because of eccentric behaviors and thought patterns.
Schizoid personality disorder treatment is not common because individuals are often unmotivated to change their behaviors. Those who do seek treatment are often referred by concerned family members. Some of the treatment approaches that could be used to treat schizoid personality disorder include:
Personality disorder therapy can include Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which focuses on emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance. Those living with schizoid personality disorder may find that these skills allow them to address their emotional detachment and improve social functioning.
Mindfulness-based therapy can help those living with schizoid personality disorder learn to be in tune with their emotional reactions and thoughts when they arise. This can be impactful because it can build emotional awareness, which can help reduce social isolation and withdrawal.
Schema-focused therapy can help you target unhealthy, deeply ingrained beliefs or schemas. Schemas are often developed in early childhood and adolescence. This can improve coping with schizoid personality disorder and promote healthy social connections and relationships. Additionally, this approach can help modify unhealthy thought patterns.
Family support for schizoid personality disorder can be impactful for those who find that their relationships are not ideal. Family therapy can be used to address relational issues and help family members understand the symptoms and behaviors associated with this condition. Family therapy can also promote healthy communication among family members.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) combines mindfulness practices with cognitive therapy techniques and approaches. This approach can help you recognize negative thought patterns when they arise and replace them with healthier alternatives. This can improve your functioning in various areas of your life.
Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP) uses the transference between the client and counselor to explore typical relationship dynamics and emotions. This can provide new perspectives on emotional distance and improve challenges found with schizoid personality disorder and emotional regulation. This is done within the safety of individual therapy sessions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a commonly used form of talk therapy that focuses on exploring how negative thought patterns affect emotions and behavior. By learning to address negative thoughts as they arise, you can effectively alter concerning behaviors, including avoidance in relationships and emotional detachment.
Psychoanalytic and psychodynamic therapy are both Freudian approaches that focus on learning about unconscious conflicts and prior experiences that affect current behaviors. This mental health counseling approach can be used to better understand the root causes of emotional withdrawal and detachment.
Group therapy and support groups can be used to provide a supportive environment to practice social skills. You can interact with peers who understand the challenges you experience and receive supportive feedback and encouragement from a trained therapist. This can help you become comfortable in social settings.

If we are not an appropriate provider for care, we will assist in finding a care provider that can help.
Insurance coverage commonly includes financial support for schizoid personality disorder treatment. Covered services include individual therapy, group therapy, educational sessions, and schizoid personality disorder medications for managing symptoms like depression. Coverage specifics are based on your insurance provider and the details of your policy.
A schizoid personality diagnosis warrants various levels of care, including personality disorder crisis management and residential treatment. Your symptoms will determine the level of personality disorder support that you need from a treatment provider. Contact AMFM today to learn more about schizoid personality disorder recovery programs that could help you, as well as to confirm your insurance coverage details.
Individuals who use health insurance to help pay for treatment for schizoid personality disorder tend to have lower expenses for treatment. Insurance coverage can lower the cost of various treatment programs, including inpatient and outpatient care. Your plan may have copayments, deductibles, limitations, exclusions, and requirements such as prior authorization.
To better understand the scope of your coverage, we encourage you to complete the AMFM insurance verification form. We can then contact your insurance provider and learn about the details of your policy. This allows us to provide you with a personalized estimate for treatment costs.
Insurance providers are required to provide some coverage for mental health disorders due to the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Coverage can include treatment programs with varying intensities and durations. Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, Kaiser Permanente, and United Healthcare Insurance are just a few examples of insurance companies known to provide coverage for schizoid personality disorder treatment and therapy programs.
The easiest way to learn about the details of your insurance policy is to complete the AMFM insurance verification form. Once we know the scope of your coverage, we can help you understand how it applies to the relevant personality disorder therapy options.
The cost of schizoid personality disorder can range in cost due to the care you receive. Residential and inpatient treatment often have higher expenses compared to outpatient treatment due to the features of a live-in treatment center. Outpatient treatment can range from $100 to $200 per individual therapy session.
If you participate in intensive programs like intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization programs, you’ll likely pay more. Utilizing specialized therapies may also incur higher costs. Additionally, if you engage in treatment for an extended duration or attend multiple therapy sessions each week, you’ll often have higher expenses for treatment. Contact AMFM to learn about different ways to pay without insurance.
