In this episode, Shaina sits down with Maggie Mullen, LCSW, DBT-LBC, to explore recovery-oriented, disability justice-informed approaches to psychosis. Together, they discuss common misconceptions, reducing stigma, person-centered care, and the emerging role of psychotherapy—including DBT—in supporting individuals experiencing psychosis.   In this episode: Recovery-oriented approaches to psychosis Disability justice and person-centered care Reducing stigma and pathologizing language The role of psychotherapy and DBT Resources• Maggie Mullen: www.maggiemullen.com•  The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook for Psychosis     Don't Forget to Subscribe: If you love this episode, be sure to follow The Affirming Minds Podcast wherever you listen to your podcasts.
