Summary

The goal of this feasibility and acceptability trial is to learn about the acceptability of adding a recovery-oriented, psychological framework to a standard medication management appointment with a psychiatrist and any impact on attendance and functioning. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

1. Will CT-R medication checks will be acceptable to the patient and feasible to deliver and receive, as measured by asking patients how they like the CT-R med checks and our ability to do this study in addition to number of patient drop-outs?
2. Will CT-R medication checks will be related to significantly greater engagement with treatment as measured by: lower no-show rates, greater self-reported working alliance, and better treatment adherence?
3. Will CT-R medication checks will be related to greater activity and increase in functioning as measured by: time use survey, GAF, skill use?
4. Will CT-R medication checks will be related to a trend in improved defeatist beliefs, negative symptoms, paranoia, and self-esteem?

Researchers will compare the group assigned to the trial psychiatrists to a small group who were assigned to non-trial psychiatrists to see if the intervention impacted any of the above questions beyond TAU.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Recovery Oriented CBTp Medication Management

The prescriber structures the medication appointment to elicit and focus on subjects long term, valued goals (aspirations). With this information the prescriber will develop a plan to increase daily activity to facilitate the aspiration's pursuit. Obstacles (psychotic symptoms, motivational problems) will be identified and a formulation developed with the individual. Psychosocial interventions will be implemented for the various obstacles alongside monitoring and implementing of medications. Across sessions, the prescriber will continue to implement and monitor psychosocial interventions.
