Home > Day Treatment Program
For many individuals, a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) for addiction and mental health offers the structure of intensive care without the need for overnight stays. It bridges the gap between inpatient hospitalizations and outpatient care, delivering comprehensive support in a flexible setting.
Our PHP provides structured treatment through:
Individual therapy sessions tailored to your needs and goals
Group therapy that encourages peer connection and shared insight
Family therapy, when appropriate, to support healing at home
Occupational therapy to help rebuild daily routines and social skills
Medication management and psychiatric evaluation with our experienced team of psychiatrists
Your treatment day may also include support for mood disorders, anxiety disorders, or conditions like bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder—each addressed with sensitivity and respect.
People with psychiatric disorders often struggle with daily lives outside of care. PHP offers continuity for those leaving an inpatient unit or emergency department, while avoiding the intensity of a full hospital stay. The program supports mental illness management through:
Continuum of care planning
Treatment goals that evolve with your progress
Monitoring for psychotic symptoms or mental health symptoms as needed
Access to community programs post-discharge
We work closely with each client to ensure treatment remains relevant and responsive—especially for those navigating conditions like obsessive-compulsive disorders or trauma-related challenges.
PHP is often recommended for those who:
Don’t require 24/7 supervision but still need intensive treatment
Are stepping down from inpatient hospitalizations or partial hospitalization services
Need structured days but flexibility at night
Are managing addiction or psychiatric care for ongoing or emerging diagnoses
Whether you’re transitioning from an inpatient unit or starting psychiatric treatment for the first time, PHP offers a clear next step—with both depth and flexibility.

Our PHP addiction treatment program allows clients transitioning from an inpatient detox program a chance to move into a more flexible program that still offers a high level of structure and support. A partial hospitalization program is a step that many people battling substance use disorder take after they have been through a residential treatment program or detoxification, including alcohol inpatient rehab. In the early stages of recovery, it is often critical that a patient lives on-site and only leaves under exceptional circumstances. We welcome clients from the surrounding Columbus, Westerville, Gahanna, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, Hilliard, Grove City, Marysville, New Albany, and Delaware, OH areas.
As part of our partial hospitalization program services, clients will have access to:
Daily group programming using evidence based treatment
Medication Management
Access to a Nurse Practitioner
MAT Services
One-on-one counseling sessions with a licensed therapist
Family Support
Transportation to 12-Step recovery meetings
Membership to a local gym facility
Weekend activities around Columbus.

If you’ve read through our PHP overview but still have questions—you’re not the only one. Below are answers to some of the most common things people wonder when considering a Partial Hospitalization Program:
Partial Hospitalization (PHP) offers more structure and support than Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), but more flexibility than residential treatment. You attend full-day sessions—typically five to six days a week—but return home or to a sober living environment each evening. It’s ideal for those who need intensive care without 24/7 supervision.
Most clients find that PHP’s daytime schedule requires taking a temporary break from full-time work or school. Treatment typically runs during standard business hours, and the emotional work involved often requires focused energy. If returning to work or school is a recovery goal, we’ll help you build toward that with support and planning.
Not necessarily. While PHP is designed for those with stable living environments, we know that not everyone has that right now. If your current home situation isn’t safe or supportive of your recovery, we can connect you with local sober living houses. These homes provide a drug- and alcohol-free environment, peer accountability, and structure—making them a great option for people who need more support outside of program hours.
Evenings and weekends are a chance to practice what you’re learning in treatment. We’ll work with you to create a recovery routine outside of program hours—whether that’s attending community support meetings, connecting with sober peers, or focusing on rest and personal goals. If you’re in sober living, you’ll also benefit from that structure and accountability during off-hours.
Yes—our PHP is designed to treat both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or another diagnosis, our integrated care approach helps you address both sides of the struggle at once. Your treatment team will include licensed clinicians who specialize in dual diagnosis support.
Progress isn’t measured by perfection—it’s measured by engagement, growth, and readiness. Throughout your time in PHP, we’ll set goals together and regularly review your progress in therapy, skill-building, emotional regulation, and relapse prevention. You’ll always know where you stand and what your next step can be.
Relapse and emotional crises are part of many people’s healing journeys—and we plan for that. You’ll have a crisis response plan in place, access to after-hours resources, and the option to step up to a higher level of care if needed. You won’t be judged or pushed away. We’ll help you stabilize and continue forward.
Not unless you choose to share that information. Your participation in PHP is fully confidential under HIPAA. If you need to take leave from work or school, we can provide documentation to support your request without revealing your diagnosis or specific treatment details.
You’ll want to bring any prescribed medications (in original packaging), a journal or notebook, a reusable water bottle, and comfortable clothes. Some clients like to bring their own lunch or snacks. We’ll go over a full list during your intake so you feel prepared.
Your recovery doesn’t end when PHP does—it evolves. Most clients step down into Intensive Outpatient Programming (IOP), continue with individual therapy, or transition into community support. Before you graduate from PHP, we’ll work with you to create a personalized aftercare plan that helps you stay connected, supported, and stable.
