What is a Residential Treatment Center?
A residential treatment center is an in-person, therapeutic setting where patients stay overnight to receive an intensive level of care for an extended period of time to deeply immerse in trauma recovery and learn skills that set the foundation for a journey to a more well balanced and self-fulfillment.
Why Residential treatment vs other treatment options?
The treatment of a physical malady is typically predicated on the severity of the problem. Issues of a psychiatric nature such as disorders or addictions are similar: one size does not fit all. Mild anxiety in an adolescent could be cured with outpatient therapy. Substance abuse in a college student may respond well to an intensive outpatient program, in which the person receives individual counseling and participates in groups. An eating disorder in a new mother could be effectively dealt with in a partial hospitalization program. However, when a psychiatric illness becomes very complicated or when two or more addictions or disorders are in play, a higher level of care is often indicated.
