Description of Service

Offers tertiary level psychiatric services to children and adolescents with significant treatment resistant mental health problems not able to be managed in the community by a pediatrician and secondary level mental health supports.

To ensure children and youth are being connected with the right provider, the right place, in the right amount of time, a centralized model of intake is used. Incoming referrals are reviewed by an intake team and if appropriate, directed to the most appropriate specialized clinic. Our current clinics include:

  • Treatment Resistant Affective Disorders Clinic
  • Treatment Resistant ADHD Clinic
  • Complex Neuropsychiatry Clinic
  • Treatment Resistant PANS/PANDAS/Autoimmune Encephalitis Clinic.

We provide short-term management only. Once the goal of the referral is met, care will be transferred back to the referring physician for ongoing management.
