Program Overview
The Day Treatment Program is divided into several treatment tracks, and participants are assigned a track based on their clinical needs and where they are in their recovery process. Day treatment services are either 3 or 4 days per week and 3 hours per day. We offer groups in both the morning and afternoon. Attendance is important to your recovery, and patients are required to attend all 3 or 4 days per week depending on the track.
While in the program, patients will participate in Psychotherapy Groups, Education/Skills Groups, and other supportive rehab therapies (i.e. occupational therapy, recreational therapy, or wellness)
Our multidisciplinary team is made up of mental health professionals, occupational therapists, and a recreational therapist. Psychiatric services and medication management ARE NOT available in this program, and participants ARE encouraged to continue working with their outpatient therapist and/or psychiatrist. This program does not treat Substance Abuse as a primary diagnosis.
