Lesson Plan

Heartbreak Support Plan

Equip mental health practitioners to support an adult client with schizophrenia and anxiety through a recent breakup and co-parenting challenges by teaching trauma-sensitive communication, evidence-based coping techniques, and collaborative action planning.

Breakups can intensify psychosis and anxiety symptoms, especially when co-parenting. This targeted session ensures practitioners can respond with empathy, stabilize emotions, and foster resilience.
