Outpatient Care Options for Adults

The Adult Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Brentwood Hospital, for adults age 18 and older, provides a transition from inpatient treatment, but can also be an alternative track for patients that require more than the conventional outpatient level of care can offer. We use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help patients address emotional issues like anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, adjustment issues, grief, abuse/trauma, relationship conflict, poor impulse control, eating disorders, psychosis, gender-specific issues, and substance abuse/dependence.

The staff of psychiatrists, therapists, and nurses collaborate to stabilize symptoms and establish the skills needed to ensure long-term personal growth and development. The average stay is approximately three weeks, but the timing may vary due to individual patient needs.

Individualized treatment plans can include:

• Psychiatric evaluation
• Group and individual therapy
• Family therapy and education
• Health and nutrition education
• Substance abuse education
• Activity and recreational therapy
• Art therapy
• Medication management
• Education services
• Individualized discharge and aftercare planning
