NorthEast Health Services brand new FEP-TR program is designed to support individuals experiencing an episode of psychosis for the first time to get the treatment they need to recover and maintain the quality of life they experienced prior to their episode.
FEP-TR was developed in collaboration with the Cambridge Health Alliance Department of Psychiatry and Harvard Medical School. Program Director, Dr. Lynn DeLisi has published over 300 papers and books focused on schizophrenia, families with members who are at high risk for schizophrenia and schizophrenia early on in illness, particularly in its initial stages and after a first hospitalization.
You don't have to face an episode of psychosis alone.
Our First Episode Psychosis Treatment & Recovery Program (FEP-TR) utilizes the latest psychopharmacologic and non-pharmaceutical therapies in an intensive integrated program aimed at recovery and resuming one’s previous quality of life. Our experts know that each client has different needs so the program is highly individualized.
Our program is for individuals who are from ages 16-50, of any gender, race, or cultural background.
Patients can be seen virtually or in person.
Referrals can be coordinated through the Framingham clinic (508) 875-1110 and scheduled with Dr. DeLisi.
No one should have to wait to begin getting well. That’s why we do our best to get you in as quickly and easily as possible. We typically schedule intake appointments within that same week or the following week upon request, but it does depend on both the client and therapist’s availability.
Transformations Care Network believes mental health is a right, not a privilege. That’s why we’re proud to work with a range of insurance providers to make our treatment accessible to the hearts and minds of many. All our services are also available to you outside of insurance to pay out of pocket.
Therapists and psychiatrists have overlapping professions. Both are mental health professionals and dedicated to your well-being and thus, often work together to prevent, diagnose, and treat mental illness. Therapists can have a range of graduate degrees in fields such as social work, counseling or psychology. Psychiatrists are medical doctors and focus on diagnosing mental illnesses and are licensed to prescribe medications.
There are a number of approaches to talk therapy and some are better suited to specific types of people and symptoms. For example, some psychotherapies are designed to help you deal with depression or anxiety, while others focus more on helping you overcome problems with relationships improve life satisfaction. Transformations Care Network believes in taking a person-centered approach to understanding you as a person and then using a blend of psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive, humanistic, integrative, and holistic methodologies to help you get the results you desire.
It’s important to remember that your therapist is there to help and for no other reason than to listen. They’ll want to hear more about why you made the appointment, some of what you’ve done to try and solve the problem, and what you hope to accomplish by engaging in therapy. The first session’s goal is to get to know you as a person, so your therapist may ask about important parts of your life, such as relationships, work, school, and information about your past experiences and background. If you do not feel comfortable — for any reason — please say so, and we will happily find you a better match.
Every person is different and healing looks different for everyone. Some people begin to feel better as soon as they make that first call or schedule their first appointment. For most, however, therapy takes time and the process can be emotionally draining at times. Though the short-term may feel challenging, keep in mind that the long-term gains of self-esteem, improved relationships, and coping skills will be well worth it. Your therapist or prescriber will help you determine what feeling better looks like for you, and will work with you to track your progress towards your personal goals.
