Support Group Meetings

A support group is a group of people with common experiences and concerns who provide emotional and moral support for one another.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy is a kind of psychotherapy used to treat depression, anxiety disorders, phobias, and other forms of psychological disorder. It involves recognizing distorted thinking and learning to replace it with more realistic substitute ideas. Its practitioners hold that the cause of many (though not all) depressions are irrational thoughts.

Outpatient Psychological Services

Psychological counseling on an outpatient basis.

Emotional Problem Evaluation

A series of tests and observations to assess emotional issues.

Partial Hospitalization Program for Behavioral Health

The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) staff includes therapists and other professionals who work with individuals requiring a less intensive program than the inpatient level. Partial hospitalization allows the individual to attend the program during the weekday and return home for nights and weekends to practice some of the skills they are learning. It can serve as a transition from inpatient to outpatient care and provides an alternative to inpatient care for individuals who meet specific criteria.

Intensive Outpatient Behavioral Health Program

An intensive outpatient program is just what the name implies--"a more intensive level of outpatient services." Therapists and other professionals manage this program and provide various group and individual therapies in a stable, safe environment. The individual learns coping skills by exploring his or her own environment outside of treatment.

 

Inpatient Behavioral Health Program

For inpatient behavioral health programs, the patient is admitted to the hospital. Psychiatric nurses, technicians and therapists make up each individual's care team, which provides both support and education to the client, as well as their families and/or support system. These professionals work with the individual's primary care physician, psychiatrist, psychologist and/or therapist, so that the maximum benefit from the inpatient stay is achieved. The goal is to ensure that the individual's transition back into the community is a smooth one.
