When anxiety, depression, or another mental health condition starts to interfere with your work or your relationships, an hour of therapy a week may not give you enough support. Foundations Ohio offers mental health treatment for adults through a structured day program, with full-day and half-day schedules at our Hilliard location near Columbus, OH. Knowing what day treatment involves and who it’s designed for can make it easier to decide what comes next.

Mental health treatment helps you understand and manage symptoms that get in the way of daily life. It ranges from occasional outpatient therapy to hospital-based care, and many people need something in between: more structure than a weekly session can offer, while still living at home.
At Foundations Ohio, mental health treatment takes place in a day program. You attend scheduled treatment at our Hilliard facility during the day and return home afterward.
Our mental health day treatment is designed for adults living with conditions such as anxiety and depression. Your treatment plan depends on your symptoms and history, not on a diagnosis alone.
Everyone feels anxious sometimes. An anxiety disorder involves worry or fear that lasts, is hard to control, and starts to limit what you do. Treatment for anxiety focuses on understanding what drives the worry and practicing different ways to respond to it.
Depression is more than a low mood. It can drain your energy, change your sleep and appetite, and make it hard to care about things that used to matter to you. Depression treatment gives you daily structure and clinical support while you and your treatment team work on the symptoms affecting you most.
Bipolar disorder causes shifts in mood and energy, with periods of elevated or irritable mood and periods of depression. Bipolar disorder treatment helps you recognize early signs of a mood change and build a routine that supports stability.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) involves unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repeated behaviors or mental rituals that a person feels driven to perform. OCD treatment helps you understand that cycle and loosen the hold it has on your day.
Mental health day treatment is the name of our program, and it is also a defined service under Ohio’s behavioral health rules. The state describes it as an intensive, structured, goal-oriented service, with a program day that includes between two and seven hours of scheduled treatment. Under those rules, day treatment can include work on coping skills, problem solving, managing symptoms, and learning about your diagnosis and treatment.
We offer mental health day treatment at two levels of care:
Your admissions and clinical team will help you decide which level of care fits your needs. Your plan can change as you progress, including a move from PHP to IOP when you’re ready for a lighter schedule. PHP and IOP are the same levels of care used in our addiction treatment programs, with programming here focused on mental health.
Day treatment may be a good fit if you:
Day treatment may not be the right level of care if you:
If you aren’t sure which kind of mental health treatment you need, our admissions team can talk through your situation with you. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or call 911 if you are in immediate danger.
Mental health symptoms and substance use often affect each other. Some people drink or use drugs to cope with anxiety or low mood, and over time, substance use can make those symptoms worse. If you’re dealing with both, dual diagnosis treatment addresses them together so that progress in one area supports the other. Because our addiction treatment and mental health day treatment share one location in Hilliard, you can receive care for both in the same place.
Mental health day treatment is offered at our facility at 3499 Main Street in Hilliard, on the west side of the Columbus area and close to major commuter routes. The building has about 10,000 square feet of space for group programming and individual therapy, with room to serve up to 120 clients.

Our Hilliard facility opens on October 19, 2026, and mental health day treatment begins there the same day. Hilliard replaces our Upper Arlington location.
