Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
Our PHP program is best suited for those who need more intensive treatment than an outpatient program can offer but do not require 24-hour supervised care. This program typically runs for up to five hours a day, five days per week, and provides therapeutic support in a structured environment
Intensive Outpatient Program
Our IOP program is a comprehensive treatment program ideal for those who require structured support but do not need 24-hour supervised care. Compared to the PHP program, our IOP program consists of fewer hours per week.
LGBTQ+ Program
While our mental health treatment programs can be gender-specific, what’s particularly special is that they’re created with an LGBTQ+ friendly approach. Clients of any gender or orientation can feel safe and secure as they work to overcome and manage their mental health conditions at Greater Boston Behavioral Health.
