Provides short term treatment for persons experiencing a
range of mental health concerns.
Provides individual, couples, group or family therapy to
adults:
• Who are suicidal or at risk for suicide
• Who have an Axis I diagnosis
• Who are experiencing a significant impairment in
functioning meaning that they are not able to carry out
daily activities of living
Clients initially speak with an intake therapist who
determines eligibility, risk and urgency. They connect the
client with the most appropriate mental health program or
refer clients to an appropriate community agency.
The assigned therapist establishes treatment goals with
the client based on symptoms and the clients identified
goals.
Therapists work collaboratively with family physicians and
may refer clients to a psychiatrist, if necessary.
