Facility which provides services including therapy or psychotropic medication to treat a person’s mental health issue, reduce symptoms, and improve behavioral functioning and outcomes.

2. Substance use treatment

Refers to treatment services intended to help their clients’ ability to function as a result of substance use and/or mental disorders. By definition, serious mental illness is someone over 18 having (within the past year) a diagnosable mental, behavior, or emotional disorder that causes serious functional impairment that substantially interferes with or limits one or more major life activities. For people under the age of 18, the term ‟Serious Emotional Disturbance” refers to a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder in the past year, which resulted in functional impairment that substantially interferes with or limits the child’s role or functioning in family, school, or community activities.

Facility Type

1. Partial hospitalization/day treatment

A medically-supervised facility that offers comprehensive, coordinated, and structured clinical services in a time-limited series of structured, face-to-face therapeutic sessions organized at various levels of intensity/frequency. Services are provided for diagnostic evaluation, active treatment of a condition, or to prevent relapse, hospitalization, or incarceration. The PH facility may be freestanding or part of a broader system that is distinct or a separately-organized unit that is neither residential nor inpatient. PH is an alternative to inpatient care; is transitional care following an inpatient stay in lieu of continued hospitalization; and is a step-down from inpatient care. PH is less than 24-hour care available at least 5 days per week and may be offered on a half-day, weekend, or evening hours basis.

Treatment Approaches

1. Group therapy

Involves groups of usually 4 to 12 people who have similar problems and who meet regularly with a therapist. The therapist uses the emotional interactions of the group's members to (1) help them get relief from distress and (2) possibly modify their behavior.

2. Cognitive behavioral therapy

Involves recognizing unhelpful patterns of thinking and reacting, and then modifying or replacing these with more realistic or helpful ones. The therapy can be conducted with individuals, families, or groups, and clients are generally expected to be active participants in their own therapy.

3. Integrated Mental and Substance Use Disorder treatment

Provides combined treatment for mental illness and substance abuse from the same clinician or treatment team. Effective integrated treatment programs view recovery as a long-term, community-based process. The approach employs counseling designed especially for those with co-occurring disorders.
