  • Delusions (false beliefs not based in reality)

  • Abnormal motor behavior or reduced emotional expression

  • Difficulty with concentration and memory

Our approach includes careful medication management, psychoeducation, and coordination with therapy services to help manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.
