Psychotic disorder refers to a group of mental health conditions known for causing distortions to thinking, perception, and emotions. This can include positive symptoms of psychosis including delusions, hallucinations, and disorganized thinking. This condition generally has an impact on your daily life, including your relationships and decision-making processes.
Psychotic disorders can vary from person to person, with notable differences in symptoms and their severity. Those who are living with this condition experience better treatment outcomes when they receive treatment and support early. The exact cause for psychotic disorder is unknown, but it is believed to be the result of genetics, environmental triggers, and brain chemistry factors. Treatment for psychotic disorder can include therapy, like skill support, and the use of antipsychotic medications.
Psychotic disorders are commonly known for causing delusions and hallucinations. Delusions are false beliefs, that are often rooted out of reality. Hallucinations are false perceptions that can include seeing or hearing things that others do not experience. Many experience their first-episode of psychosis in their late teens or early 20s, according to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).
We previously mentioned that positive symptoms of psychosis can include hallucinations and delusions. Negative psychotic symptoms are another grouping of symptoms which can include struggling to show emotions, lack of motivation, social withdrawal, and having an interest in being alone. Examples of symptoms that are commonly associated with psychotic disorders include:

Outpatient treatment tends to be more affordable, though these prices can vary as well. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs tend to have higher costs than outpatient treatment. Individual therapy sessions on average cost between $100 and $200 per session. Group therapy tends to have lower fees. Those who receive medication management services may have an increase in price.

There are several individual mental health conditions that fall within the category of psychotic disorders. The common thread among these conditions includes psychosis symptoms. There are other symptoms and characteristics that set them apart from each other. Some of the conditions that are considered psychotic disorders include:
Bipolar disorder with psychotic features can include hallucinations or delusions in addition to manic or depressive symptoms. Psychotic symptoms commonly align with mood episodes that you experience. Individuals who experience bipolar disorder with psychosis often require immediate support and treatment from a healthcare facility.
Brief psychotic disorder is known for sudden and short psychotic episodes, generally lasting less than one month. This condition is commonly triggered by trauma and intense stress. Brief psychotic disorder treatment is available at inpatient treatment centers, with continued support often available at outpatient treatment centers.
Schizophrenia is a mental health condition that commonly causes cognitive impairment, hallucinations, and delusions. Those living with this condition commonly experience symptoms for more than six months. Depending on your symptoms, and their severity, you may require immersive treatment in a 24/7 rehabilitation center. Medication management services and therapy are commonly used for continued support.
Schizoaffective disorder is known for the presence of schizophrenia symptoms, and mood disorder symptoms. Individuals may find themselves experiencing depressive or manic episodes with active psychotic symptoms. This condition affects between 0.2% and 1.1% of the population, and is commonly diagnosed between the ages of 25 and 35 years old.
Delusion disorder is known for causing persistent and strong beliefs that are not rooted in reality. This condition does not include symptoms like hallucinations and cognitive dysfunction, which are commonly associated with other psychotic disorders. Delusional disorder is not as common as other psychotic disorders.
Schizophreniform disorder is known for causing symptoms that are similar to schizophrenia, but with a shorter duration. Often less than six months. Without intervention at or around the time of your symptom onset, this condition can progress into schizophrenia. This condition is believed to affect one out of every 1,000 people.
Recovery centers offering treatment for psychotic disorders offer structured mental healthcare that can help you learn to manage your symptoms, and improve your daily functioning. Depending on your needs, treatment programs can provide comprehensive care with the use of medications, therapy, and other supportive therapies.
The type of care that you receive will be dependent on the symptoms that you’re experiencing. As an example, treatment of bipolar disorder with psychotic features will have variations from treatments for psychotic depression. Behavioral health centers can offer treatment at varying intensities to offer personalized care during each stage of your recovery. This can include crisis intervention services, residential treatment, and outpatient treatment programs.

Mental health treatment centers offering counseling for psychotic disorders can include a range of treatment options. Therapy and counseling are used to address emotional, social, and behavioral challenges. Examples of approaches that may be incorporated into a psychotic disorder treatment plan include:
Group therapy is a common component of treatment for psychotic disorder. This provides you with an opportunity to connect with others who have had similar mental health experiences as you. It can also help re-introduce socialization for those who have been isolating and withdrawing from social experiences.
The purpose of rehabilitation skills training within a therapy clinic is to focus on developing the skills you need to successfully navigate your daily life. This can include vocational training and interpersonal skills. You can engage in community integration activities, and receive support for obtaining employment.
Psychosocial treatment programs are used in integrative treatment centers to focus on your social, emotional, and occupational functioning. The goal of this is to help improve your quality of life, and increase your independence in everyday life. This is tailored to your personal needs and the symptoms that you experience.
Individual therapy is commonly available in medical treatment centers offer psychotic disorder treatments. This can include one on one individual sessions with a therapist to process your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Your therapist can help you learn new coping skills and strategies to manage your stressors. You can also receive treatment for previous traumatic experiences.
Supportive counseling differs from individual counseling because it focuses more on providing emotional support compared to using evidence-based therapeutic interventions. Supportive counseling can help improve your overall daily functioning and self-esteem. This may be incorporated into both inpatient and outpatient treatment options.
Medication management services provide regular monitoring for those who are living with psychotic disorders. Depending on your symptoms, this can include medications like antipsychotic medications and atypical antipsychotics. Your provider will monitor your symptoms, and adjust your dosage to ensure optimal results.
Cognitive remediation therapy is used for those who are experiencing cognitive challenges as a result of their symptoms. This can focus on improving memory, your attention, and problem-solving abilities. Treatment can include various exercises and techniques to improve your brain functioning and overall quality of life.
Family and couples counseling is a valuable service for your loved ones. Commonly available in holistic treatment centers, these therapy options can help your loved ones understand your condition. They will learn how to best support you while you work together to improve communication patterns. This can create a healthier home environment for everyone.
