Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic of UPMC

The Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital offers a wide range of mental health and addiction care options for both kids and adults. Mood and anxiety disorders, psychosis, eating disorders, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and drug use disorders are just some of the conditions that the hospital treats. Even though it's not gender- or faith-based, UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital provides LGBTQ+ welcoming care, making sure that everyone feels welcome and that everyone's identities and needs are respected. 
 
The facility has different levels of care, such as inpatient and outpatient programs, intensive outpatient (IOP) and partial hospitalization (PHP) services, detoxification and rehabilitation, special programs for first responders, and an intensive outpatient program for anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder during pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), creative and expressive arts therapies (CEAT), activity therapy, individual and group therapy, medication management, proactive community treatment, and telepsychiatry are some of the ways that people are treated. The University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital work together on research and teaching. The hospital is known for putting an emphasis on trauma-informed care and high standards of treatment, which are backed by Joint Commission accreditation. The facility takes a number of private insurance plans, and you can get more information by calling the hospital directly.
