Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services - Mississauga / Toronto
Child and Adolescent
Mental Health Services provides outpatient services for children
and adolescents up to age 19, and their families, who live
in Mississauga and south Toronto. Children must have either
a diagnosed psychiatric condition, or significant symptoms
or unusual behaviour indicative of a psychiatric condition.
Treatment may include individual, family or group therapy,
psychiatric assessment, psychological testing and medication
consultation and follow up. Services also include community
outreach, education and collaboration with other agencies
and schools. Appointments for assessments are scheduled during
the day; follow-up appointments are available during the day
and on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
This service also offers a Rapid Response Team for children, which accepts referrals directly from staff in the Emergency Care Centre and the inpatient Paediatric Unit of Trillium Health Centre. This rapid access to outpatient services can either provide an alternative to hospitalization or decrease the length of a hospital admission, when appropriate.
Referrals: This service is one of six agencies to launch a 'one phone number' approach to enable easier access to mental health services in the community for children and youth. Referrals to the outpatient service can be made by professionals, parents or guardians. All referrals require a written referral from a physician before being seen by a
