Partial Hospitalization - Adults and Adolescents

Teens receive the same skill and technique training as adults, but their care is often approached differently for various reasons. Since adolescents are still in school, our treatment includes academic programs to ensure they maintain their education. While adults usually don’t require educational support, we still emphasize life skills training for them, including vocational and financial education. 

Teens often begin treatment reluctantly, sometimes due to parental or guardian pressure, which can result in less enthusiasm to engage. However, active participation greatly enhances a teen’s chances of recovery. We understand this need and patiently address your teen’s concerns, encouraging them to participate in their treatment. 

While teenagers may experience similar concerns as adults, they can also encounter challenges unique to their age group. Navigating social media, bullying, and uncertainty about their future requires specialized strategies for effective healing. 

Partial hospitalization can be highly beneficial as it merges the flexibility of outpatient services with the comprehensive support found in inpatient care. It provides a structured support network featuring support groups, medical professionals, therapists, and more. Medical professionals will monitor your health and medication; therapists and support groups can help manage symptoms.

PHP delivers increased flexibility compared to an inpatient treatment program. While maintaining a structured schedule during the day, PHP allows you or your loved one to go home each night after completing treatment. 

During PHP, individuals continue to practice many of the skills they learned in inpatient treatment while also building on these skills to better face life outside of outpatient treatment. Skills such as mindfulness, accountability, and stress reduction are crucial in preventing a return to use or worsening mental health disorder symptoms.
