Inpatient Services

Inpatient services for adults are located in the Sticht Center, and for children and adolescents in Brenner Children's Hospital, both on the campus of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center.

Adult inpatient services emphasize evaluation and treatment of depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders and schizophrenia offering inpatient ECT when needed.

Child and adolescent inpatient services include evaluations and treatment for depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder.

Outpatient Programs

Our outpatient programs encompass services for adults - including a separate geriatric program - adolescents and children. A faculty member participates with a resident physician in the evaluation of every patient at every visit. The full-time faculty is available for specialty consultations.

Adult outpatient services include evaluation and treatment for the full range of psychiatric disorders including depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, sleep disorders, alcoholism and substance abuse. Intensive outpatient group therapy, individual evaluations and therapy form the core of our alcohol and substance abuse services. We are known for the quality of our Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) program offered on an outpatient basis when recommended.

The child and adolescent outpatient services perform evaluation and treatment of all childhood psychiatric disorders including depressive disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, and attention deficit disorders.

Geriatric House Calls

A generous gift established the Kate Mills Snider Geriatric Psychiatry Outreach Program supporting geriatric psychiatry consultations to older individuals who cannot easily come to a doctor’s office. Consultation requests are accepted on the basis of referral.
