Outpatient Psychiatric Treatment

General Clinics

Our general clinics are primarily for evaluating new patients with undiagnosed psychiatric disorders. We use these clinics as a starting point for your care program. Patients are evaluated in this program and will continue in the clinic for ongoing medication management. They may also be referred to a specialty clinic or individual provider for additional therapies (such as individual psychotherapy or group therapy) to treat identified problems.

Group Programs

We offer less intensive outpatient specialized group therapy for the treatment of mood disorders, stress management, developing coping strategies, building healthy lifestyle habits, grief and loss, managing aftercare, and an adolescent coping skills group.

Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)

Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is an evaluation and treatment most commonly used to treat severe mood disorders, including major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder.

Treatments are performed in Hyde Park on outpatient appointments.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Our IOP is designed to support those suffering with depression, stress, anxiety, panic, chronic medical conditions, adjustment disorders, psychosis, grief and loss, mood disorders, or those experiencing the impact of trauma as well as other mental health diagnoses.

The Intensive Outpatient Program has morning, afternoon and evening availability, both in-person and virtually, offering both adult IOP and adolescent IOP for ages 12-18.
