About GGZ Friesland

GGZ Friesland is the organization for mental healthcare in the province of Friesland. We are here for the people who need us most. Annually, more than 20,000 people use our care. From home care to temporary admission to a clinic, from group therapy to part-time treatment – the help GGZ Friesland can offer is broad and varied. There are separate options for children and young people, adults, and the elderly. The care is initially focused on recovery from a disorder. If recovery is not possible, we provide long-term support. Together with them, we try to make their problems bearable and ensure that they can (better) participate in society. GGZ Friesland is one of the largest employers in Friesland. We are a recognized training institute for psychiatrists, psychologists, and nurse specialists. Applied scientific research plays an important role in evaluating and improving treatments.
