PSYCHOSIS TREATMENT

ANCHORING YOUR REALITY WITH EXPERT CARE

Crisis to Clarity: Compassionate Telepsychiatry for Hallucinations, Delusions & Sensory Overload

Psychosis isn’t a life sentence—it’s a storm of sensory confusion where reality fractures, voices intrude, and familiar worlds turn threatening. At Cater Psychiatry, Dr. Sammy Khader, MD, a board-eligible psychiatrist specializing in psychotic disorders, delivers urgent stabilization and long-term recovery through evidence-based telepsychiatry. No judgment. No emergency room waits. Just science-guided care focused on your safety, insight, and reclaimed autonomy.

Your Stabilization Pathway

Psychosis manifests uniquely, but common threads include:

Uninvited Realities

Hearing critical voices or seeing unsettling visions 

Unshakable Beliefs

Convictions of persecution, grand missions, or distorted identities

Cognitive Static

Sentences unraveling mid-thought, focus dissolving like smoke

Sensory Overload

Lights/colors intensifying, time warping, or body sensations detaching 

These aren’t choices or character flaws—they’re neurobiological signals needing expert care. Whether brief reactive psychosis, schizophrenia-spectrum, or drug-induced episodes, we respond with urgency and respect.
