Lanark County Mental Health is a community based mental health Agency serving Lanark County adults and transitional aged youth who experience moderate or severe mental illness.

The Agency is sponsored by the Board of the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital and supported by an active Community Advisory Board.

We provide streamlined access to a range of crisis response, assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, court diversion and intensive community support services. A number of area agencies and hospitals partner with us to ensure comprehensive client support.

The Agency also hosts specialized services including the Geriatric Psychiatry Outreach Team and general psychiatry consultants via service protocol agreements with Brockville Mental Health Centre [ROMHC] and facilitates the LEAD Team [Crisis Response Network] in collaboration with our local community hospitals, police services and partner agencies.

Counselling and other clinical services are available to support adult victims of domestic violence and / or sexual assault. In addition to providing individual assessment and treatment, the Agency is available for family and professional consultation regarding trauma.

Services are provided confidentially, respectfully and within a shared care model that supports the development of a client's natural support system and recovery.

Individuals meeting the mandate of the Agency will be invited to participate in an intake assessment interview.

While crisis services are promptly available, limited staff resources may result in a client waiting period for some services.

All service enquiries are welcome.
