Our program is designed for children and adolescents, ages 5 – 17, that require a higher level of intensive care than provided through traditional outpatient care. Benefits of a day program include:

  • Intensive treatment without hospitalization or need for an aftercare plan
  • Group therapy with individuals seeking similar treatment
  • Structured environment to promote progress
  • Supervision provided by professional staff
  • Daily monitoring of medications and symptoms
  • Monitoring of behaviors in a hospital setting and at home

Our services are available Monday - Friday, 9:00am-3:00pm and most insurances are accepted. Referrals can be made by outpatient treatment providers and emergency rooms. For admission, the initial pre-certification must be conducted by the referring agency.

Our Assessments include:

  • Psychiatric evaluation administered by a board certified psychiatrist who specialize in children and adolescent care
  • Psychosocial evaluation performed by an Unit Therapist
  • Physical examination conducted by a nurse practitioner or a medical physician
