Answer 1

Cognitive-behavioral therapy

Step-by-step explanation:

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a common type of talk therapy (psychotherapy) where a psychotherapist challenges the negative patterns of thoughts about the patient so as to alter unwanted behavior . This is usually done by a client working with a psychotherapist by attending a limited number of sessions. This therapy helps the patient, in this case a client with schizophrenia become aware of negative thinking so you can view situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way.
