Welcome to Baycrest’s Centre for Mental Health.

The Centre for Mental Health is a multi-component treatment program for people dealing with late-life mental health problems. We understand the complexity of aging. While research and education are integrated into all that we do, our focus and commitment is to provide excellent clinical care for all of our clients.

We use psychosocial approaches such as exercise and behavioural activation, as well as innovative drug therapies and psychotherapies both for the prevention and treatment of severe mood and anxiety disorders.
