Adult Partial Hospitalization Program | Chicago & Surrounding Areas
A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) or Day Treatment Program at SunCloud Health treats substance use disorders, eating disorders, mood disorders, and related trauma in an integrated way. Treatment is designed to provide stabilization for patients with more severe mental health symptoms yet who fall below the threshold of requiring inpatient 24-hour support. While our PHP program offers some of the intensity and structure of a residential mental health treatment program during daytime hours, we provide additional opportunities to practice recovery outside of the controlled treatment environment during evenings at home or in peer-supported apartment communities.
PHP/Day program is currently offered 5 days a week (Monday through Friday), 6 hours per day, at all SunCloud Health locations. Because every patient is unique, the recommended length of stay in PHP depends on each person’s clinical circumstances. Please contact us if you are ready to begin your mental health journey and feel our Full-Day Adult Partial Hospitalization Program might be a good fit for you. Call or email us here.
Integrated Approach for Whole-Person Care
This bio-psycho-social-spiritual treatment program uses evidenced-based care, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness practices, and 12-step facilitation to help patients develop coping skills. Our integrated partial hospitalization program is designed to coordinate treatment across various mental health challenges in order to eliminate the need for patients having to choose which of their disorders deserves priority in terms of treatment. The disruption this type of “tracked” approach creates for the patient in their recovery is eliminated by our cohesive approach, which puts the patient at the center of their mental health treatment.
