Within the outpatient program, patients are provided with consultations or episodes of care, depending on need and diagnosis. Patients with mood and anxiety disorders our seen through our Stepped Care program. We are very fortunate to have a large and highly skilled allied health team. As such, outpatients can access a variety of programming and allied health supports, including psychoeducation, CBT groups, day programs, addictions supports, and more.
