With 140 years of experience in mental health and addiction, Homewood Health Centre in Guelph, Ontario, treats trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, substance use, and co-occurring disorders. The fully accredited, physician-led facility serves as a provincial and national resource for complex inpatient care, with specialized programs for addiction, mood and anxiety, eating disorders, service-related trauma, healthcare professionals, and women’s trauma.

Build Skills for Life After Treatment

Homewood Health Centre helps clients stabilize, understand what drives symptoms, and practice skills for daily life after treatment. Care combines individual and group therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills, cognitive processing therapy (CPT), motivational interviewing, and expressive therapies. When appropriate for treatment-resistant depression, psychiatrist-led options may include ketamine infusion therapy, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), or electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Their 16-week eating disorder program supports clients 16+ with weight restoration, symptom interruption, and nutritional rehabilitation.

Make Room for Movement and Reflection

Clients receive care on more than 50 acres of green space along the Speed River, where forested walking trails, gardens, a meditation garden, gazebo, sports courts, and quiet reading nooks offer room for movement, reflection, and time outdoors. Private and shared rooms give clients a place to rest between programming, while the gym, recreation centre, greenhouse, music and art spaces, library, dining room, café, and gift shop add structure and variety to daily life.

Carry Recovery Into Daily Life

Homewood begins planning for life after inpatient treatment before discharge. Recovery management focuses on reintegration into daily routines, relapse prevention, wellness, skill-building, and reconnecting with family and broader support systems. Clients may also use alumni resources, Therapy@Home, and outpatient recovery management when appropriate, giving them structured ways to stay connected, practice recovery skills, and sustain progress after treatment.

Testimonial
This place was amazing for me. I was in IMAP (Integrated mood and anxiety program) for most of the summer. The skills I learned and experiences I had here were invaluable. Not to sound cliché but it honestly saved my life. We had a variety of traditional group and non-traditional therapy. I loved my psychiatrist and some of the nurses. In addition to traditional nursing, they act as someone to confide in. They encourage you to talk to them if you're upset. I spent hours talking to them one on one. One actually inspired me to pursue nursing, which is what I'm working on now.

Track Progress with Measurement-Based Care
Track Progress with Measurement-Based Care
Homewood Touchpoint gives clients and clinicians a clear way to track symptoms, goals, and treatment response during care. Clients complete brief measures at intake and throughout treatment, while the team reviews up-to-date results and adjusts care based on progress. This shared process uses evidence instead of guesswork to keep treatment focused on what is helping.
Connect with Others Who Serve
Connect with Others Who Serve
First responders, military personnel, and veterans often carry stress that can be difficult to explain outside service roles. Homewood Guardians brings clients together in a dedicated inpatient program with a Guardians-only unit, mixed groups, and peer-based groups. Shared experience can make it easier to discuss operational trauma, relationships, and returning to work and life.
Find Focused Support for Healthcare Workers
Find Focused Support for Healthcare Workers
Homewood Health Centre’s healthcare provider stream complements a client’s primary program with groups held twice per week. Frontline healthcare professionals focus on concerns that can come with clinical work, including moral injury, self-care, professional identity, time away from work, and returning to practice after treatment for mental health, addiction, or co-occurring concerns.
Heal in a Woman-Focused Setting
Heal in a Woman-Focused Setting
