This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a type of brief counseling called solution-focused therapy to see if it helps people with schizophrenia feel better adjusted to everyday life and more likely to take their medications as prescribed. Half of the 60 participants will receive six weekly one-on-one therapy sessions that focus on their strengths and past successes, while the other half will continue with their usual care. Researchers will measure changes in how well people are adjusting socially and emotionally, and whether they're taking their medications consistently.
Schizophrenia can make it hard for people to function in daily life, connect with others, and stick with their treatment plans. This trial exists to see if a brief, supportive therapy that builds on what people are already doing well could help them adjust better and stay committed to their medications.

If you are placed in the therapy group, you will meet with a counselor once per week for six weeks for one-on-one sessions. These sessions will focus on your strengths, the times you've coped well in the past, and your goals for the future. If you are in the comparison group, you'll continue with your regular mental health appointments as usual. At the beginning and end of the study, all participants will complete brief questionnaires and scales to measure how you're adjusting and whether you're taking your medications as prescribed.
