What is a Partial Hospitalization Program?

What is PHP treatment? A partial hospitalization (PHP) program is a highly structured level of outpatient care, often used to treat mental health disorders and/or addiction. While in a PHP level of care, clients live at home or in a sober home but come to their treatment center for programming 5-6 days per week, 6-8 hours per day. It’s all of the therapy and support you get in residential treatment, but with more flexibility and free time as you begin to find your footing in the real world.  

A partial hospitalization program for mental health is tailored for people who no longer need intensive inpatient treatment, but still want structure, support, and clinical guidance as they enter the world of early sobriety. For such people, PHP programs are the perfect balance – giving the supervision and guidance of an inpatient facility but the more relaxed programming of a lower level of care. Partial hospitalization programs serve as a critical bridge between rehab and real life. 

You may need PHP addiction treatment if…

You’ve recently relapsed after a period of sobriety

You are sober, but experience frequent or intense cravings for drugs or alcohol

You suffer from mental health issues (depression, anxiety, trauma etc.) which interfere with your recovery

You no longer require residential treatment but still need a highly structured routine

You have recently graduated inpatient treatment and now require a step-down level of care

Here for you throughout your journey

Avenues’ PHP addiction treatment centers have helped over 40,000 people to date. Hear it in their own words:  

It was an amazing experience. The PHP level of care was insightful, and they went out of their way to make everyone happy and comfortable. I stayed 6 months and have no regrets. We had a lot of fun with paintball shooting, even the movies - every Saturday they have activities planned. All the staff go over and above. I have created a bond with a group of guys who think like I do, and we all gained a lot of knowledge and applied the suggestions Avenues gave us to start and continue working the program of AA.

This is by far the best PHP/IOP that I have been through. The staff are awesome. They relate to you on a personal level like peers rather than addicts. It's longer than most programs but it's definitely worth it. I would have stayed longer than the 4 months but unfortunately, I was ready to move on 😩. If you want it to be your last program and if you’re serious and ready to live a life of recovery, then choose Avenues.

Avenues Recovery Center at South Bend

Incredible place with even better people. This place showed me that treatment in the right atmosphere can make all the difference. The staff here, from the director down to the weekend BHTs, care so much about the clients and their successful recovery. If you even think you may need help, please reach out to Avenues. It was easily one of the best decisions I've ever made. Come home to Avenues!

I’ve struggled with addiction for 8 years. I have NEVER completed a program or felt loved, wanted or important as I did the day I walked through the door of Avenues. The family I've built and made here is one of a kind. They are the most hands-on, caring, compassionate and understanding people!!! It gets NO BETTER THAN AVENUES!!!!

Chyanne Lyn Slaughter

Avenues Recovery Center at Baton Rouge

Great place to go! I was very hesitant at first because it was out of my area and comfort zone and I wanted to leave after the first week. After talking to staff, therapist and my parents, they encouraged me to stay and by the Grace of God, I'm glad they did. My life and outlook for my recovery when I leave looks promising. I realized I had to CHANGE!! After being here, going to and participating in groups, socializing and being involved has helped me tremendously. I now love myself more, I now know more about my mental health, and how to deal with stress, anxiety and how I can stay sober. This place has truly saved my life and I'm so excited for all the changes I'm already making. I highly recommend anyone to please check out Avenues, it's the best decision you'll make.

Chris Thacker

Avenues Recovery Center at Indianapolis

The incredibly caring staff at Avenues changed my life. I was broken, and with their guidance and support I was able to acquire the knowledge and tools to not just get sober, but completely change my life. They were able to help me change my whole thought process and perspective on living a joyful and fulfilling life SOBER. Avenues as whole fosters an environment of compassion and community. I never felt alone in my sobriety journey, someone was always there to listen and give knowledgeable feedback from their own experiences. I am forever grateful for this program and the wonderful counselors and staff that work there.

We thought you might
have questions, like…

How long does a PHP program last?

The average length of stay for a partial hospitalization program near me generally is between one and two months. However, since treatment is fully customized and dependent on the individual, a client will remain in PHP treatment until they are deemed ready to graduate to a lower level of care. PHP may therefore last for a different amount of time for each person. 

How many hours a day is PHP treatment?

PHP usually lasts six/ six and a half hours per day. Programming starts at 9 a.m. and ends at 3:30 p.m., giving you plenty of free time. 

What is the goal of PHP addiction treatment?

The goal of PHP is to enable clients to slowly re-integrate into normal life and begin applying and practicing the skills and behaviors they have learned in treatment in real day-to-day situations. Upon completing PHP, clients should be ready to move to a lower level of care with less supervision, while resuming employment and other responsibilities. 

Does PHP drug rehab address mental health/ co-occurring disorders?

Yes. PHP continues any and all therapeutic work that began in residential treatment, including any therapies aimed at addressing a co-occurring mental health disorder. 

How much does a partial hospitalization program for mental health cost?

The cost of a Partial Hospitalization Program will be different for every individual, since it depends on the type of insurance coverage they have and the amount of time they require in this specific level of care.  

Avenues Recovery Center accepts both private insurance and private pay. You can click here to verify your insurance, or reach out, and our business office will be glad to provide an individualized cost estimate and discuss payment options with you. 

What’s the difference between an adult Partial Hospitalization program and Intensive Outpatient program?

The difference between Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient treatment is that PHP is a more intensive level of care than IOP. This means that when in PHP, you will have more time to work with your primary therapist, to attend group sessions, and to benefit from the clinical support that is so critical as you ease back into real life. 

Does Avenues’ PHP substance abuse facility treat all types of substance addictions?

Yes. Our PHP treatment centers accommodate all types of substance addictions, including alcohol and all drugs. 

How do I find a partial hospitalization program near me?

If you’re looking for a quality PHP program near you, having an open discussion with your primary care physician or a mental health professional who understands you and your needs can be a great start. They can provide quality and targeted recommendations of local PHP programs.
