Schizophrenia & Psychosis Treatment in Davie, Florida

How schizophrenia & psychosis is evaluated and treated

Structured, supportive care including symptom management, medication review, and functional recovery goals.

Care for Davie patients begins with a full psychiatric evaluation: current symptoms and how long they have lasted, psychiatric and medical history, medications and supplements, sleep, substance use, family history, and the daily stressors specific to work, school, and family life. From there we discuss a diagnosis in plain language and build a treatment plan together.

When medication is appropriate, options, expected benefits, side effects, and monitoring are reviewed at each visit. When helpful, care is coordinated with therapy, primary care, or other specialists, and laboratory or psychological testing may be recommended.

Getting to care from Davie

From Davie and the Nova Southeastern campus area, University Drive to I-595 and the Turnpike puts the office about 40 minutes away. Students and university staff often prefer late-afternoon slots after class.

A hybrid schedule fits the academic calendar well: in-person visits during lighter weeks, telehealth through exam periods and clinical rotations. For schizophrenia and psychotic disorders specifically, that means symptom review and medication monitoring stay on schedule without Davie patients rearranging a whole workday. Appointments are available in English and Spanish, and records can be shared with your primary care physician or therapist in Davie on request.
