Partial Hospitalization Programs for Adults and Adolescents
Comprehensive Care in Westport, CT
At Lift Well, our Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) provide a high level of care for those needing more support than traditional outpatient therapy can offer. Our programs, designed separately for adults and adolescents, are located in Westport, CT, serving Southeastern Connecticut and the surrounding areas.
Specialized PHP for Adults
Our adult PHP is tailored for individuals 18 and older who need intensive treatment for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, or other psychological concerns. This program offers structured, therapeutic support five days a week, for five to six hours per day, allowing clients to maintain their daily responsibilities and return home each evening. The program includes:
• Group Therapy: Focused on various therapeutic approaches, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
• Individual Therapy: Two sessions per week, which may include family members as needed.
• Nutritional Support: We offer meal support and sessions with a registered dietitian, particularly for those struggling with eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID).
• Psychiatric Services: On-site prescribers for medication management and monitoring.
• Collaborative Treatment Model: A team-based approach ensures comprehensive care tailored to each client’s needs.
• Caregiver Support Groups: Providing education and support for family members, helping them to understand and support their loved one’s recovery process.
The adult PHP at Lift Well is ideal for those stepping down from a residential program or seeking a more intensive option than weekly therapy. The structured, immersive environment fosters significant therapeutic progress while allowing clients to maintain their daily lives.
Adolescent PHP: A Safe Space for Healing
The adolescent PHP at Lift Well caters to teens ages 10 to 17, providing specialized treatment for issues such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and other mental health concerns. This program runs five days a week, offering a comprehensive, supportive environment that includes:
• Group Therapy: Emphasizing skill-building and emotional regulation through therapies like DBT and Family-Based Treatment (FBT).
• Individual and Family Therapy: Twice-weekly sessions to address personal and family dynamics.
• Academic Time: Dedicated periods for schoolwork, helping teens keep up with their education while in treatment.
• Nutritional Therapy: Meal support and nutritional counseling tailored for those with eating disorders, including specialized therapeutic meals.
