Psychosis Early Intervention Program

Type Of Service

Early Psychosis Intervention

Program Description

Provides services to youth who are experiencing what may be the early signs and symptoms of psychosis. This recovery-focused program works to promote early identification and treatment of psychosis, along with minimizing the impact of the psychosis through community outreach and helping individuals achieve their goals at work, at school and within their social networks.

Services include assessment, treatment, education, case management, support and referrals to other services in the community by a multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists, nurses, social workers and occupational therapists. In addition to therapeutic, peer and skills based groups, there are regular opportunities to connect socially with peers. The program also works closely with individuals’ families, providing them with education and supportive counselling.

CMHA Toronto’s MOD Early Psychosis Intervention Program is part of EPION (Early Psychosis Intervention Ontario Network) and TEIPN (Toronto Early Intervention in Psychosis Network).
