Services
Intensive Outpatient Program
Our Intensive Outpatient Program provides structured mental health treatment while allowing patients to maintain daily responsibilities. Patients receive nine hours of weekly therapy including group sessions, individual counseling, and evidence-based interventions. This program effectively addresses eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, and trauma-related conditions through cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and experiential treatments. The program's flexibility makes it ideal for those transitioning from higher levels of care or needing more support than traditional outpatient therapy provides.
Trauma Recovery
Our trauma recovery program addresses acute and long-term effects of traumatic experiences using specialized therapeutic approaches. Through individual and group therapy, we treat PTSD symptoms including flashbacks, anxiety, depression, and self-destructive behaviors. Our trauma-informed care incorporates EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mind-body interventions to help patients process traumatic memories and develop healthy coping mechanisms. The program supports individuals dealing with childhood abuse, violent crimes, sudden loss, and other traumatic life events.
Eating Disorder Treatment
Our comprehensive eating disorder treatment addresses anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and body dysmorphia through multidisciplinary approaches. The program combines nutritional counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy to address underlying psychological factors. Patients receive individualized treatment plans that include group therapy sessions focusing on body image, emotional regulation, and healthy eating patterns. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes the connection between past trauma and eating disorder development, providing integrated treatment for co-occurring conditions.
Addiction Treatment
Our addiction treatment program addresses alcohol use disorder, opioid addiction, and other substance abuse issues through evidence-based interventions. The program incorporates 12-step principles, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy to address addictive patterns. Patients participate in group therapy sessions focusing on relapse prevention and develop personalized recovery plans. Our holistic approach includes yoga therapy and music therapy to support long-term recovery, while addressing co-occurring mental health conditions that often accompany substance use disorders.
Partial Hospitalization Program
Our Partial Hospitalization Program offers intensive mental health treatment for patients requiring more support than traditional outpatient care. Patients attend 20 hours of weekly programming including group therapy, individual counseling, and medication management. This structured program addresses severe mental health conditions like treatment-resistant depression, complex PTSD, and dual diagnoses. The program provides medical monitoring while allowing patients to return home evenings, making it ideal for those transitioning from inpatient care or needing intensive treatment without residential placement.
