Unlocking DBT for Psychosis: Insights from Maggie Mullen, LCSW

For me, it was about marrying these two worlds and figuring out how can we benefit people with psychosis by offering them skills that can actively intervene when that cycle of emotion dysregulation happens, that we know worsen symptoms of psychosis.
What if there was a way to better manage psychosis through a set of practical skills? In this episode of The Mental Health Toolbox Podcast, Patrick Martin sits down with Maggie Mullen, LCSW, the author of the 'Dialectical Behavior Skills Workbook for Psychosis'. They dive into how Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) can be a game-changer for individuals grappling with psychosis. Maggie shares how DBT skills can break the cycle of emotional chaos that often worsens psychosis symptoms.
She highlights the benefits not just for patients, but also for caregivers and mental health professionals. By tuning in, you'll learn why listening to those with psychosis and co-occurring disorders is crucial, and how trauma impacts mental health providers. Maggie and Patrick also touch on the urgent need to address psychosis paired with substance use and how DBT can aid in mood regulation.
If you're curious about new ways to support those struggling with psychosis, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
