A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) represents a structured, intensive level of mental health care designed to provide comprehensive treatment while allowing patients to return home each evening. At D’Amore Mental Health, our PHP serves as both a step-down option from residential treatment and an alternative for those unable to participate in residential care due to work, family, or other essential responsibilities.
Our program creates a supportive environment where individuals can develop critical coping skills, address unhelpful thought patterns, and implement strategies to improve emotional regulation and interpersonal relationships—all while maintaining connections to their personal lives and support systems.
Our PHP program operates Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 PM. Clients participate in therapeutic sessions throughout the day and then return home or to a supportive living environment each evening. This balance allows for intensive treatment while maintaining the comfort and stability of familiar surroundings.
One-on-one sessions with our licensed mental health professionals help address your specific challenges, trauma history, and personal goals. These sessions provide a safe space to explore deeper issues while developing personalized coping strategies tailored to your unique needs.
Our therapist-led groups focus on specific skills and challenges in a supportive community environment. These sessions foster connection with others experiencing similar struggles while practicing interpersonal skills and receiving diverse perspectives on shared challenges.
We actively involve family members in the treatment process through therapy sessions and educational workshops. This component strengthens your support system by helping loved ones understand your condition and teaching them how to best support your recovery journey.
Our psychiatric team provides comprehensive evaluation, prescription services, and ongoing monitoring to ensure medication effectiveness while minimizing side effects. Regular consultations allow for timely adjustments to your treatment plan as needed.
We utilize proven therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to build psychological flexibility.
Practical workshops focus on essential skills for independent living, including stress management, time management, financial planning, and communication skills. These sessions prepare you for successful community reintegration and sustained wellness.

Complementary approaches such as art therapy, music therapy, and movement therapy provide alternative avenues for expression and healing beyond traditional talk therapy. These modalities help access emotions and insights that may be difficult to express verbally.
Our program incorporates mindfulness practices, physical wellness activities, nutrition education, and sleep hygiene training to address all aspects of well-being. This whole-person approach recognizes the interconnection between physical and mental health.
Throughout your time in our PHP, we work collaboratively to develop a comprehensive plan for continued care after program completion. This ensures a smooth transition to your next level of care and provides ongoing support for your recovery journey.

Partial Hospitalization Programs provide intensive treatment during the day while allowing clients to return home each evening. Residential treatment involves 24-hour care in a facility. PHP offers a balance of intensive treatment and the comfort of returning to a familiar environment each night.
The length of treatment varies based on individual needs and progress. Most clients participate in our PHP for 2-6 weeks, though this timeline can be adjusted based on clinical recommendations and personal recovery goals.
Yes, most insurance plans cover PHP services. D’Amore Mental Health is in-network with many major insurance providers, and our admissions team can help verify your benefits and explain any out-of-pocket costs.
Many clients transition to our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) after completing PHP. This step-down approach provides continued support while allowing for greater independence and reintegration into daily life activities.
Because PHP runs during standard business hours (9 AM-4 PM, Monday-Friday), most clients pause full-time work or school during treatment. However, some are able to manage part-time commitments or remote work/education in the evenings.
Family involvement is a vital component of our treatment approach. We offer family therapy sessions, educational resources, and support for family members to help create a home environment conducive to recovery and continued wellness.
