Expert Schizophrenia Treatment Tailored to Your Needs

At Calm 'n' Caring, we use evidence-based approaches to support individuals living with schizophrenia. Our therapies are designed to address symptoms, improve functioning, and enhance quality of life. Key therapies include:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Helping clients identify and manage thought patterns contributing to paranoia, delusions, or hallucinations.
• Family Therapy: Educating and involving family members to create a supportive home environment.
• Skills Training: Focusing on social, communication, and life skills to improve day-to-day functioning.

Our holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each individual’s needs, enabling long-term recovery.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a cornerstone of our schizophrenia treatment. It helps clients:

• Challenge distorted beliefs: Understanding the difference between reality and delusional thoughts.
• Improve coping strategies: Learning techniques to manage anxiety, paranoia, or hallucinations.
• Build resilience: Developing healthier ways to process emotions and interact with others.

CBT is a proven method for reducing symptoms and helping clients regain control over their thoughts and behaviour.

Medication is often an essential component of schizophrenia treatment, working to stabilise symptoms like hallucinations and delusions. At Calm 'n' Caring, we collaborate with:

• Psychiatrists: To ensure clients are prescribed the most effective medication.
• General Practitioners (GPs): To monitor physical health and medication side effects.
• Family members: To support medication adherence and provide encouragement.

This collaborative approach ensures clients receive comprehensive care, combining therapy and medication to maximise recovery.

We understand that each individual’s experience with schizophrenia is unique. That’s why we create tailored treatment plans that align with your personal goals and challenges. These plans may include:

• A detailed assessment to understand your symptoms, triggers, and daily struggles.
• Flexible therapy options, including in-clinic sessions, telehealth appointments, and at-home therapy for NDIS participants.
• Ongoing progress tracking to adjust the treatment plan as needed and ensure you’re achieving meaningful results.

Our personalised approach empowers clients to lead fulfilling, independent lives while managing their symptoms effectively.
