ive been referred out many times OR either told they could not help me. many many times. sometimes even on the phone before i met them.

most dont specialize in it either. especailly ones with masters degree. youd have to find a phD or something. and even then they may not.
I've run into this problem too. Most therapists don't seem to deal with psychosis. I have a therapist now but we're working on other stuff, I don't know if he would help me with the psychosis stuff or even be able to(haven't been too open about it as of yet). One therapist I had point blank refused to talk to me about it, she said if I talked about it I was "enabling my disease"... ****ing idiot.
