Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Graduated Recovery Intervention Program (GRIP)

GRIP is a manual-based comprehensive psychosocial intervention for people recovering from an initial episode of nonaffective psychosis. The purpose of GRIP is to improve occupational functioning after first-episode psychosis and promote goal pursuit and effective illness self-management. Participants assigned to receive TAU plus GRIP will attend therapy sessions weekly for up to 36 weeks, in addition to routine appointments. GRIP includes four phases, each of which focuses on one of the following topics: engagement and wellness management, substance use, persistent symptoms, and functional recovery.

BEHAVIORAL

Treatment as usual (TAU)

Participants receiving TAU will meet with their case-manager and health care providers on an as-needed basis.
