Psychology has a dynamic role within this team, providing individual and group therapy, cognitive assessment, consultation, outreach, as well as program evaluation and research.

PEPP clients present with a diverse range of mental health concerns in addition to symptoms of psychosis, including depression, anxiety, trauma-related disorders, substance use, and OCD.
