Partial Hospitalization Program
Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs) offer outpatient mental health services voluntarily, providing an alternative to or transition from inpatient psychiatric hospitalization. It caters to individuals requiring substantial support for symptom management in a structured, safe environment. Sessions run Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., excluding holidays, typically lasting two weeks.
Upon admission, participants receive personalized care from a Psychiatric provider and primary clinician, involving comprehensive evaluation, medication management, supportive counseling, and aftercare planning. Clinician meetings occur once or twice weekly to address treatment needs.
Each treatment day includes four therapy groups with a lunch break, offering mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). Participants gain skills in mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness to enhance safety, daily functioning, and symptom management.
At discharge, participants may still experience symptoms but possess skills for managing them in less structured environments. Options post-treatment include transitioning to Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) or returning to previous outpatient providers, with assistance from the treatment team in finding suitable resources.
Available Groups For:
- Adolescent
- Adult
- Peripartum
Intensive Outpatient Program:
The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) serves individuals with moderate psychiatric symptoms needing increased support while managing personal responsibilities safely. These individuals are typically stepped down from PHP, or stepped up when symptoms persist or worsem despite frequent outpatient care. Sessions are held Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (excluding holidays) either in the morning (9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.) or afternoon (1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.), typically lasting six weeks. This flexible schedule allows participants to integrate therapeutic skills into daily life.
Upon admission, each participant is assigned a Psychiatric provider and a primary clinician for evaluation, medication management, supportive counseling, and aftercare planning, with weekly clinician meetings for ongoing support.
Each IOP session features three therapy groups focusing on mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies such as DBT, ACT, and CBT. Participants learn skills for mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness to enhance coping and symptom management.
At discharge, most participants show improved symptoms, ready to resume daily activities with support from established outpatient mental health providers. The treatment team assists in finding resources if new providers are needed based on individual needs.
Available Groups For:
- Adolescent
- Adult
- Peripartum
- Trauma
