Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

At Connections Wellness Group, we are committed to supporting you throughout your journey to better mental health. For some patients, weekly therapy sessions may not provide enough support. Our outpatient partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides a structured, safe, and therapeutic environment for those who may benefit from a higher level of care.

If you or a loved one require mental health treatment services, please contact Connections Wellness Group. Our professional and compassionate staff can be reached at (877) 747-4294 or online.

What Is a Partial Hospitalization Program?

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) does not mean you are hospitalized or admitted as an inpatient. PHP is an outpatient program, meaning patients come for a few hours and then return home.

A partial hospitalization program is the most intensive form of outpatient mental health therapy. It is similar to an intensive outpatient program (IOP) but with more programming and support. A partial hospitalization program can vary in length but is typically 5 days per week with 4-6 hours per day. Our patients use their time at home in the evenings and on the weekends to practice the skills learned in our program. Both daytime and evening options are available.
