PsychotherapyPsychotherapy is an interpersonal, relational intervention used by trained psychotherapists to deal with a patient's mental and/or emotional disorders. Biofeedback TherapyA therapy that uses specialized devices to help individuals learn how to influence the function of organs or body systems that aren’t usually thought to be under conscious control.
Psychological TestingPsychological testing is a field characterized by the use of samples of behavior in order to infer generalizations about a given individual. Substance Abuse Education ProgramSome patients in the early stages of substance abuse do not need a highly intensive level of care. This program is intended to educate the beginner user on the short and long-term effects of substance abuse, and the benefits of addressing the problem in its early stages. The goal is to prevent substance abuse dependence by stopping the problem before it progresses to active addiction. Partial Hospitalization Program for Behavioral HealthThe 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 ProgramAn 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 ProgramFor 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.
