The Mood and Anxiety Ambulatory Services provide ambulatory services to clients with mood and anxiety disorders.  Psychiatrists, social workers, occupational therapists, psychologists, nurses, psychometrists and researchers staff the program. MAAS is a specialty service providing evidence-based clinical care, education and research. The MAAS inter-professional team offers consultations, time-limited treatment and follow-up, education and services for families.

In addition, MAAS offers rapid service to clients with Early Psychosis. Access to specialized outreach services is made possible through partnership with the Mood and Psychosis Early Intervention team of the Canadian Mental Health Association, Toronto branch.

If suitable, clients may be offered an opportunity to participate in research spanning basic science to direct patient care. Particular research interests include early intervention and exploring the gene/environment interaction.
