Schizophrenia Treatment in Greeley, Colorado
Evidence Based Programs | Most Insurances Covered
Schizophrenia is a complex mental health condition that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. For individuals in Greeley, Colorado, and nearby cities like Loveland, Fort Collins, and Denver, Aspen View Mental Health offers specialized treatment programs designed to help clients and their loved ones manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Whether you’re seeking outpatient support or long-term care, our treatment center near you provides a supportive environment, evidence-based interventions, and compassionate providers dedicated to your well-being.
Our team understands that schizophrenia can impact every area of daily life — from relationships and decision-making to employment and self-care. That’s why we create individualized treatment plans tailored to each client’s specific needs, integrating medication management, psychotherapy, skill-building, and community-based resources.
Understanding Schizophrenia and Related Conditions
Schizophrenia is part of a broader group of mental health disorders that involve psychosis — a break from reality characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. It can also be associated with co-occurring conditions like schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, depression, and substance use disorders. Symptoms often develop in adolescence or early adulthood and can vary in intensity over time.
Common symptoms of schizophrenia include:
- Delusions (false beliefs)
- Hallucinations (hearing or seeing things others do not)
- Disorganized speech or thought patterns
- Difficulty concentrating or following a conversation
- Social withdrawal or lack of motivation
- Impaired decision-making and memory problems
Without effective treatment, schizophrenia can interfere with work, school, relationships, and personal independence. At Aspen View Mental Health, we address both the psychotic symptoms and the underlying mental health conditions that contribute to the disorder.
Our Evidence-Based Approach
We believe that effective schizophrenia treatment should address the whole person — mind, body, and environment. Our mental health professionals combine the latest evidence-based therapies with personalized care to help clients build coping skills, manage symptoms, and work toward long-term stability.
Our schizophrenia treatment plans often include:
- Antipsychotic medications to reduce hallucinations and delusions
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns and improve daily functioning
- Family therapy to educate and support loved ones
- Group therapy to foster social skills and peer support
- Case management to connect clients with housing, employment, and community resources
- Mindfulness and self-care strategies for stress reduction and emotional regulation
Levels of Care Available in Greeley, CO
At Aspen View Mental Health, we offer multiple levels of care so that treatment can be matched to your current needs and goals.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
PHP offers a structured treatment schedule during the day while allowing clients to return home in the evenings. This level of care is ideal for those who need more support than outpatient therapy but do not require full hospitalization.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Our IOP provides several therapy sessions per week, focusing on skill-building, coping strategies, and relapse prevention. It’s a flexible option for those transitioning from a higher level of care or seeking to maintain progress while balancing daily life responsibilities.
Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient care is available for clients who are stable but require ongoing therapy, medication management, and check-ins with their provider. This option works well for individuals maintaining employment, school, or family obligations.
Therapies We Offer for Schizophrenia Treatment
Aspen View Mental Health integrates a variety of therapy modalities to support symptom management and overall wellness:
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – Helps clients accept difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful life goals.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Focuses on identifying and changing harmful thought patterns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – Teaches emotional regulation, mindfulness, and distress tolerance skills.
- EMDR Therapy – Useful for clients with past trauma that may exacerbate symptoms.
- Group Therapy – Builds social connection and reduces isolation.
- Family Therapy – Educates family members and strengthens communication.
- Individual Psychotherapy – Provides a one-on-one space to address challenges and create solutions.
Medication Management and Psychiatry Services
Because schizophrenia is often treated with medication, our psychiatrists and prescribing providers work closely with clients to find the most effective and tolerable medication plan. We carefully monitor side effects, adjust dosages as needed, and educate clients about how their medications work. Our psychiatry services are available across all levels of care, ensuring continuity and safety.
Supporting Families and Loved Ones
Schizophrenia affects more than just the individual — it also impacts family members and close friends. At Aspen View Mental Health, we offer family therapy and educational resources to help loved ones understand the condition, set healthy boundaries, and participate in the recovery process. By involving families, we create a stronger network of support for our clients.
Addressing Co-Occurring Conditions
Many individuals with schizophrenia also experience substance abuse, mood disorders, or anxiety disorders. Our dual diagnosis treatment addresses both the mental illness and the substance use disorder simultaneously. This integrated approach improves outcomes and reduces the risk of relapse.
We also work with clients who have bipolar disorder, OCD, ADHD, PTSD, and other mental health conditions that may complicate schizophrenia treatment.
Community-Based Support and Long-Term Wellness
We recognize that recovery from schizophrenia is a lifelong journey. That’s why we emphasize community-based care and ongoing support after treatment ends. This may include:
- Support groups for ongoing peer connection
- Case management to help with housing, employment, and healthcare access
- Mindfulness training to improve self-awareness and reduce stress
- Life skills coaching for budgeting, cooking, and daily living tasks
Our goal is to help clients develop the tools they need to maintain independence, stability, and quality of life.
