DUE TODAY, HELP

The mother of Charles, 17 y/o, has come to the clinic to get a psychiatric consult for her son. She explained that she often hears him talking to someone who is not there. She adds that he is spending a lot of time in his room by himself and has accused her of tampering with his things. In the past he took his own medicines (risperidone) and gained some weight. Now he looks disheveled, preoccupied, and doesn’t speak to anyone in the clinic. Choose an appropriate treatment for this case.

1. Continue with medications (risperidone)
2.Medication treatment: Atypical Antidepressants
3.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
4.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
