    Serious Mental Illness

    If your loved one is living with a serious mental illness (SMI), you already know how deeply it affects their ability to function in everyday life. At Doro Mind, we provide expert care through a personalized, compassionate approach.

    GET STARTED

    SMI can significantly interfere with your loved one's ability to think clearly, manage emotions, relate to others, and carry out daily activities. SMIs are complex, lifelong conditions that often require long-term, specialized treatment and coordinated care.

    Supporting your loved one's road to recovery can feel uncertain and emotionally exhausting. You may find yourself trying to make sense of confusing symptoms, searching for the right treatment options, and juggling the responsibility of coordinating care, often without clear guidance or support.

    At Doro Mind, we provide expert care for serious mental illness through a personalized, compassionate approach. We also recognize that caregivers need just as much support as their loved ones. Our team works closely with you, keeping you informed, involved, and empowered to make confident, medically sound decisions for your loved one.

    What We Treat

    Conditions We Treat

    Psychosis

    Psychosis refers to a group of symptoms that disrupt how the mind processes information, leading to a loss of contact with reality. During an episode of psychosis, your loved one may experience hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized thinking, making it difficult for them to distinguish what's real from what isn't. Understanding what psychosis looks like and knowing how to help, what to say, or when to seek support can help you support your loved one in their recovery journey.

    Schizophrenia

    Schizophrenia is a complex and lifelong serious mental illness that affects how your loved one may think, feel, and interact with the world around them. It may involve psychotic symptoms, such as hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thoughts, and changes in behavior or emotional expression. These symptoms can disrupt your loved one's daily functioning, relationships, and the ability to engage with reality in a consistent way.

    Bipolar I Disorder

    Bipolar disorder is a lifelong mental health condition that causes intense shifts in mood, energy, activity levels, and behavior. These fluctuations typically include episodes of mania and depression. While the symptoms of bipolar disorder can differ from person to person, the condition is manageable with the right treatment approach. With consistent care and support, you can help your loved one with bipolar disorder lead a stable, meaningful, and fulfilling life.

    Co-occurring Substance Use Disorder

    When your loved one is diagnosed with both a serious mental illness (SMI) and a substance use disorder at the same time, sometimes referred to as dual diagnosis. These co-occurring disorders interact in complex ways. Substance use can make mental health symptoms worse, interfere with treatment, and increase the risk of relapse, while at the same time, mental health issues can increase dependence on substance use.
