Patients and Families

The New York State Psychiatric Institute offers treatment services through various clinical programs, including inpatient and outpatient treatment. Many of our treatment services are offered through participation in studies, including a large number of clinical trials. Our department has research studies in a wide variety of areas, offering treatment for depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, substance abuse and other conditions. Adults, children/adolescents, and the elderly are served through these programs. Our clinical programs are supported by services including clinical psychology, nursing, recreational and occupational therapy, and social work. We also have a Patient and Family Education Center that offers education and information about psychiatric disorders and treatments.
