WorkReturns Intensive Outpatient Program
Help for people returning to work after months at home
Dr. Jared Pickens, an economics professor at the University of North Texas, missed in-person teaching and engaging with students and colleagues. When pandemic restrictions were lifted and he returned to the classroom, he was concerned to find that things weren’t back to “normal.” As his anxiety increased, his job satisfaction decreased. Through the WorkReturns outpatient program at Medical City Green Oaks — a one-of-its-kind program in North Texas — Dr. Pickens found the tools, confidence and coping strategies to help him enjoy teaching again.

Outpatient mental health services
Although Medical City Green Oaks is a psychiatric hospital, we also offer outpatient mental health facilities with expanding programs to provide care to patients across North Texas. Our locations offer patients a variety of services, such as:
Drug and alcohol program
A high percentage of patients who commit to our drug and alcohol program for adults, they tend to complete drug and alcohol addiction treatment and attend 12 step groups at a high rate. As a result, patients not only get sober, they stay sober.
Electroconvulsive therapy
For patients who are unresponsive to traditional therapy and medication management, Medical City Green Oaks offers inpatient and outpatient electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) services, which has been proven as a safe and effective form of treatment for people with certain mental illnesses. For example, ECT is a treatment for severe, medication-resistant depression.
Before considering ECT, a full evaluation is required to ensure ECT is safe for the patient. This evaluation usually includes:
- A medical history
- A full physical exam
- A psychiatric assessment
- Basic blood tests
- An electrocardiogram (ECG) and chest X-ray to check heart and lung health
- Anesthesiologist review
ECT is available Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
To learn more about ECT, make a referral or schedule an appointment, please call (972) 770-0824. Your call will be returned within 24 hours.
