Psychosis has long been viewed through a medical model focused on symptom reduction—but recovery is about much more than eliminating symptoms.
In this episode, Shaina sits down with Maggie Mullen, LCSW, DBT-LBC, to explore recovery-oriented, disability justice-informed approaches to psychosis. Together, they discuss common misconceptions, reducing stigma, person-centered care, and the emerging role of psychotherapy—including DBT—in supporting individuals experiencing psychosis.
In this episode:
- Recovery-oriented approaches to psychosis
- Disability justice and person-centered care
- Reducing stigma and pathologizing language
- The role of psychotherapy and DBT
