A form of psychotherapy that engages the person in examining and challenging their psychotic experiences and developing coping strategies to manage symptoms.
CBT-P is a form of psychotherapy that helps a person experiencing psychosis become more conscious of their distressing beliefs (voices and delusions) and patterns of thinking to help them execute strategies to reshape these patterns to achieve a positive outcome.
It is a 16-week program completed individually or in a group format by a regulated health care professional trained in CBT-P. This program includes both professional and self-guided learning. Each session can be tailored to meet everyone’s unique needs, preferences, and accommodations.
Our participants will see a decrease in distressing thoughts, emotions and behaviors relating to their psychosis. Participants will be given a toolkit of strategies to build resiliency and strength in working towards their goals in their recovery journey, improving their quality of life.
Please speak to a Canadian Mental Health Association -Kenora staff member if you are interested in completing this program or have any other questions. They will complete a referral screener to ensure you meet appropriate criteria. Once criteria are meet, a CBT-P trained staff will then contact you with the next steps in beginning the CBT-P program.
