About this provider

GGZ Friesland is the province-wide specialist mental health institution for Friesland, working through regional teams spread across the province and specialist outpatient clinics, including a Leeuwarden clinic for anxiety, mood and personality disorders. Access is by GP referral only; patients cannot register themselves for treatment. Its public treatment overview describes care programmes (crisis care, trauma, mood-related care via regional teams, older-adult psychiatry) rather than individual interventions, and does not publish details of an esketamine nasal spray programme, so referral questions run via the GP or the organisation's referrers' pages.

Common questions

How do I get help at GGZ Friesland?
