What is Transitional Psychiatric Care?
Transitional psychiatric care focuses on offering targeted, high-yield treatment over a set period of time. At FemPsych, this means working together for up to 18 months to manage symptoms, create a clear care plan, and ensure a smooth transition of care post treatment.
This model is ideal for individuals who need support through a specific life transition, medication adjustments (including simplification or discontinuation), or symptom stabilization without the expectation of indefinite care. It allows for focused, meaningful treatment while prioritizing continuity beyond the scope of short-term psychiatry.
