What is PHP?

Our Partial Hospitalization Program in Ohio bridges the gap between residential and outpatient programs, offering a structured and supportive environment for individuals who no longer need 24/7 care. Life doesn’t stop while in treatment, so we offer scheduling options with the freedom to maintain professional or personal commitments. It’s an ideal option for those transitioning from detox or inpatient treatment.

Each program is tailored to meet individual needs, but on average PHP participants meet with their recovery team 3-5 times each week for several hours of treatment. Participants attend therapy sessions and programming during the day, allowing them to return home in the evenings to spend time with family, attend to work or educational responsibilities, and practice the skills learned in treatment in real-world settings.

Ohio PHP for Addiction & Co-Occurring Mental Health Disorders

Addiction and mental health conditions often co-occur, creating unique challenges for those seeking recovery. Individuals struggling with addiction are more likely to develop mental health issues from drug or alcohol use, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, or bipolar disorder. Conversely, those with untreated mental health conditions may turn to substance use as a form of self-medication, exacerbating symptoms. 

Treating concurrent mental health conditions requires a specialized approach, so our dual-diagnosis programs follow an integrated care model developed by addictionologists and mental health professionals. By incorporating mental health treatment into our Ohio PHP, we address symptoms of addiction and behavioral health conditions simultaneously. This helps clients build a foundation for long-term sobriety, develop healthier coping mechanisms, reduce the likelihood of relapse, improve mood, and increase their quality of life.

Holistic Treatment Interventions for Total Healing

Our Ohio Partial-Hospitalization Program is tailored to address the unique needs of each client, providing a comprehensive array of therapeutic services and evidence-based interventions. From individual counseling and group therapy to psychiatric support and medication management, our multidisciplinary team is dedicated to providing holistic care that addresses the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction and mental health. We place special emphasis on building essential coping skills and positive habits to support long-term recovery.

What Happens After PHP?

The length of your time in our Partial Hospitalization Program in Cincinnati, Ohio depends on your progress in recovery, your unique needs as identified in your treatment plan, co-occurring mental health disorders, the input of your counselors, and other factors such as insurance coverage and personal commitments. You might step down a level to our Intensive Outpatient Program, or you may start the next phase of your journey without additional treatment.

Your next step depends on you, where you are, and where you want to go.

As you progress through our Ohio PHP, we will collaborate with you to develop a personalized aftercare plan that includes ongoing support, resources, and referrals to community-based services to ensure a smooth transition and sustained recovery. Everyone who participates in our PHP program is invited to join our Aftercare Program, which offers 52 weeks of continuous support through counseling and on-site meetings with like-minded community members.
