Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a trauma-informed, mental health, wellness treatment modality for people who are struggling with substance use and mental health concerns. PHP is an important next step for individuals who have completed inpatient treatment for mental health stabilization or substance use detoxification and no longer require 24-hour medical or safety monitoring. Programming is intensive. Patients receive mental health and substance use counseling focusing on increasing resilience by strengthening reflective functioning, emotional regulation, and interpersonal conflict management skills.
The program is non-punitive, educational, and supportive, encouraging participants to increase self-awareness, and build strengths and skills necessary for independent substance-free living. Group participants are a vital element of this modality as they help us learn the value of acknowledging and appropriately expressing feelings and learning to trust in a supportive environment. Learning emotional vulnerability and developing trust is a natural, healthy experience and a key element of the modality.
In PHP, patients get the structure and support they need while practicing recovery skills at home or maintaining other obligations. PHP may be appropriate for those coming out of inpatient treatment, incarceration, or those who need more structure than traditional outpatient but cannot access inpatient treatment for financial or other reasons.
