Partial Hospitalization for Teens
Our Exton location offers a partial hospitalization program (PHP) for teens ages 14-18. PHP is designed for teens with a primary mental health diagnosis and works well for teens with a strong support system who have difficulty managing their symptoms. This may include generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, bipolar, OCD or PTSD. The treatment team will use a variety of interventions to address the mental health symptoms, through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and experiential techniques. In addition, our PHP program also implements holistic therapy into the individual's treatment through art therapy, music therapy, trauma-sensitive yoga and more.
Teens in our PHP will be able to meet with our psychiatric provider to discuss medications and express their thoughts on symptoms related to medication. Our PHP has a partnership with LearnWell to be a valuable resource for teens in maintaining continuity of schooling while in treatment. LearnWell is an licensed, private program of educators which coordinates with your child's school to help your child stay up to date with their schoolwork.
Intensive Outpatient Program for Adults and Teens
Our Exton location offers intensive outpatient programs (IOP) for adults (ages 18+) and adolescents (14-18). This program provides a more structured program than weekly counseling sessions with a therapist. The core IOP treatment method involves group therapy sessions - individual and family counseling sessions ca be scheduled on an as-needed basis. The Light Program utilizes a variety of therapies, such as:
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
- Motivational interviewing
- Group processing
- Skill-building exercises
Our counselors work to develop a comprehensive treatment plan that best meets the individual's mental health needs. When medication is necessary, we will refer the individual to one of our psychiatric providers. Our IOP is offered four days a week for two hours and 15 minutes.
Eating Disorder PHP and IOP Treatment for Adults
Primary eating disorder treatment is available through our partner program, Seeds of Hope. More information about this program can be found on their website.
