World-class schizophrenia care is just a phone call away.
Schizophrenia is a severe mental health condition sometimes referenced as a psychotic disorder, meaning symptoms can include psychosis—impaired thoughts and emotions severe enough to induce a disconnect from reality.
Successful treatment of these disorders involves a combination of elements, including medications, talk therapy, symptom education, and rehabilitation and social supports. McLean Hospital offers comprehensive care, education, and support to help individuals understand and manage symptoms of their condition.
Let us show you why you should trust McLean to help you or a loved one.
If you or a loved one is struggling with schizophrenia, McLean is here to help. Call us today at 617.855.3141 to learn more about treatment options.
