Partial hospitalization programs are a more flexible treatment option once you have completed detox and residential treatment and no longer require 24/7 medical monitoring. Following an inpatient level of care, PHP transitions you into a less restrictive treatment plan that provides more freedoms and the ability to return home while continuing treatment.
When included in a continuum of care program, partial hospitalization also prepares you to transition into an intensive outpatient program (IOP), the next level of care. Likewise, treatment in partial hospitalization occurs prior to treatment in an outpatient program (OP) with sober living.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
At Royal Life Centers, our guests always come first. For this reason, we offer the best resources and treatment programs. Naturally, this quality extends to our sober living arrangements provided for guests. For this reason, guests who have completed detox and residential inpatient are invited to join our aftercare program. As such, we seamlessly transition guests who wish to continue their stay with Royal Life Centers from our inpatient level of care into the first stage of our 12-week program, PHP.

During PHP, you participate in individual therapy sessions with licensed therapists, group therapy sessions led by experienced counselors, and educational workshops on topics such as relapse prevention and coping skills. In addition to traditional methods of therapy, we also incorporate holistic approaches such as art therapy, mindfulness exercises, and yoga classes. These practices have been proven to be effective in reducing stress and promoting overall well-being during the recovery process. We also offer medication management for those who require it as part of their treatment plan.
Since you are no longer required to live in a facility during PHP, the frequency of therapy are less frequent. This provides you more opportunities to focus on achieving your recovery goals outside of treatment.
Treatment in Partial Hospitalization Program
Following residential treatment, the partial hospitalization program (PHP) is the first phase of our 12-week aftercare program. Our 12-week program is split into three phases so you can gradually transition through levels of care and back into society. You’ll start with partial hospitalization, and finish our long-term rehab program in intensive outpatient treatment.
Therapy in Our Partial Hospitalization Program
During partial hospitalization, you’ll participate in group therapy sessions Monday through Friday, six hours per day, and Saturdays for three hours. PHP precedes intensive outpatient program (IOP), outpatient (OP), and sober living. Guests’ treatment plans are individualized to their unique clinical needs and goals in early recovery. In building their treatment plans, guests can incorporate a variety of evidence-based and complementary therapies. These services are designed to help guests develop healthy coping skills, manage triggers and cravings, and address underlying issues that may contribute to addiction. Some of the services offered during PHP may include mindfulness and meditation, yoga, art therapy, and nutrition counseling.
Sober Living Arrangements in PHP
We understand that finding a place to live is an important step in your recovery, and our sober living residences provide a safe and supportive environment for you to continue your journey in sobriety. After completing our inpatient program at Royal, guests often want to continue care with us either in our 12-week program or outpatient program. In our 12-week program, guests live in our sober living residences and are part of the tight-knit recovery community we have built.

While staying in our sober living community, you’ll gain practical life skills that focus on upholding responsibilities, maintaining accountability, and building connections within the recovery community.
