The Newly Institute is spearheading a paradigm shift in the Canadian healthcare system by establishing a network of purpose-built mental health clinics across Canada, catering to diverse needs for therapy in Halifax. Founded by a team of medical experts who identified a gap in the mental health programs available to all Canadians, the Institute synthesized insights from individuals across the country, Psychiatrists, Psychologists, and senior healthcare leaders. These experiences and best practices shaped the Institute’s philosophy of rapid access and resolution, delving into the core of an individual’s mental health concerns, particularly addressing the need for therapy in Halifax.

The Newly’s mission is to provide pioneering innovative intensive outpatient mental health programs that will provide long lasting change in the industry. The Newly recognized that the delivery of psychology-based programs in the community and the public system often focuses on seeing individual healthcare providers once a week and expecting that over time clients will improve. However, substantial medical evidence shows that if you bring clinicians together in a bio-psycho-social-spiritual interdisciplinary treatment model and provide care in an evidence based intensive outpatient program clients get better faster, and the faster they improve the significantly more likely they are to return to work and a healthy lifestyle.
