Treatment for Every Level of Outpatient Care

Clients in our Intensive Day Program typically have not progressed with weekly therapy on its own. Withdrawal from family, friends, school and favorite activities are common, as well as excessive technology use (social media, gaming) as an unhealthy coping strategy. Our concentrated intensive outpatient program occurs Monday through Friday, over a 6-12 week time frame, depending on severity of symptoms. Each day consists of four hours of targeted individual and group work.

Program Includes:

• Individual and group sessions with emphasis on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) as part of the cognitive behavioral treatment plan. Dialectical behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy may be incorporated based on client needs.
• Parent support, education, and family therapy
• Supportive advanced treatments including virtual reality, bio feedback, and EMDR
• Education on thought patterns and the physiology associated with anxiety
• Recovery tracking, a quantitative measure of progress over time
• Help to manage fitness, recreation, and technology consumption
• Collaborative care with your existing psychiatrist or our staff/affiliated psychiatrists

Our clinicians use proven cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and other approaches to treat anxiety and OCD, which can be complex and affected by other co-occurring symptoms. Depending on individual needs, treatment is supported by advanced technologies such as bio-feedback, virtual reality, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which is particularly effective for trauma recovery.

Program Includes:

• Assessment and treatment planning
• Intensive individual therapy with an anxiety specialist
• One to two therapy sessions per week with emphasis on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) as part of a cognitive behavioral treatment plan. Dialectical behavior therapy and psychodynamic therapy may be incorporated based on client needs.
