Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) is the first of 3 three-week phases of outpatient treatment following detox and residential/inpatient treatment and consists of six hours of group per day, six days per week. PHP precedes IOP, OP, and sober living.

PHP is simply a less structured, more flexible treatment option designed for guests who have completed detox and no longer require the 24/7 medical monitoring that our residential inpatient program provides. PHP also prepares guests for intensive outpatient programming (IOP), the next level of care, and is the first step back into society. PHP is the first phase of our 9-week program. The reason our 9-week program is split into three phases is because it is designed to smoothly transition guests through levels of care. While guests in PHP start in a partial-hospitalization level of care, they will finish our 9-week program in an outpatient level of care.

Designed to benefit those who have a support network in place and are capable of self-sustenance and resisting relapse, PHP is the first stage of our outpatient program created to prepare guests for building and maintaining healthy, sober lives, in and out of our care.

A Holistic Approach

Holistic treatment in PHP, like treatment at all levels of RLC care, is evidence-based and includes group, activity/movement, individual, adventure, and equine therapies, as well as psychiatry with medication management.

Our integrative, biopsychosocial and spiritual approach to treatment incorporates individual and group therapy, psychiatric evaluation, psychotherapy, recreational opportunities, relapse prevention, education on gender-specific issues, trauma resolution, grief and loss, anger management, depression, and 12 step meetings to provide guests the resources needed to lead lives free of substance dependence. We focus on healing the mind, body and spirit.

Through these sessions and activities, we restore mind, body, and spirit; this threefold targeting defines holistic treatment at Royal Life Centers. Our collaborative, comprehensive treatment plans are custom-tailored to each guest, and guests will work closely with their therapist and case manager to ensure that their needs are met and that they are on track to reach their goals and have the resources needed to do so.

You Come First

At Royal Life Centers, the guest always come first, which is why we offer only the best, including guest living arrangements. In all phases of outpatient treatment, guests reside at Royal Life Housing, our sober living community. Rental fees during PHP are included in guests’ treatment plan, and our supportive, in-house sober living staff is available 24/7. Each of our sober living homes features luxurious living rooms, spacious bedrooms, walk-in closets, and plasma TVs with cable. We also provide transportation to 12 step meetings four times each day.
