Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) in Massachusetts

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is an outpatient treatment program that bridges the gap between inpatient care and traditional outpatient services. It is an intensive treatment option suitable for individuals who require structured support but do not need 24-hour supervision. Our PHP in Massachusetts provides a structured environment where individuals can receive counseling and therapeutic services during the day while returning to their homes or a supportive living environment in the evenings.

Day treatment affords clients similar exposure to treatment activities that they would receive in an inpatient rehabilitation program. With our holistic approach to drug and alcohol recovery, patients in our care can take advantage of yoga classes, reiki, and professional nutritional guidance. We also provide onsite access to psychopharmacology services and support medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Our day program allows individuals to focus on sustaining lifelong recovery while maintaining enough structure to maximize the recovery environment and minimize exposure to high-risk encounters.

Massachusetts PHP Program Information

Woburn Addiction Treatment offers a variety of care options for adults ages 18 and over who are facing substance use disorders and associated mental health challenges. Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) is the recommended step following residential treatment and serves as a bridge to intensive outpatient treatment. If you are currently enrolled in an inpatient program, we will generally suggest PHP as the next phase of your recovery.

Our treatment center prioritizes personalized care tailored to your unique needs. Our PHP program offers flexibility and convenience, with treatment sessions available five times per week for up to eight hours per day, with a minimum participation requirement of twenty-five hours per week. After completing your daily sessions, you have the option to return to your home or a supportive sober living environment.

The duration of our partial hospitalization program in Massachusetts varies depending on individual needs and treatment plans. Typically, our PHP programs involve treatment sessions that span several weeks or months. The specific length of our PHP is determined by factors such as the severity of the condition, progress made during the program, and the recommendations of our treatment team.

What to Expect During Our Massachusetts PHP

Comprehensive Assessment

Upon admission to our PHP in Massachusetts, individuals undergo a comprehensive assessment and evaluation process. This step allows our clinical team to better understand the individual’s condition, history, and needs. The assessment includes psychological evaluations, medical examinations, and consultations with the individual and their family members, if necessary.


Individualized Treatment Plan

Based on the diagnostic assessment results, a personalized treatment plan is developed. The treatment plan outlines the specific goals, interventions, and modalities that will be utilized during the PHP program. This plan serves as a roadmap for the individual’s treatment journey and is regularly reviewed and adjusted as needed to ensure its effectiveness.


Therapy and Counseling

Counseling sessions make up a significant part of our PHP treatment program. Our therapy model emphasizes a focus on evidence-based behavioral health treatments such as cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing–– groups and individual meetings––which may be incorporated into a patient’s treatment plan. These sessions allow individuals and their families to explore and address the underlying issues contributing to their substance abuse and/or mental illness.


Medication Management

Our PHP includes medication management services for individuals who require medication to manage their symptoms. Psychiatrists and medical professionals closely monitor the effectiveness of medications and make adjustments as necessary to optimize the individual’s response and minimize side effects.


Group Support and Activities

Our PHP programs incorporate group therapy sessions and activities. These group settings offer individuals the chance to connect with peers facing similar challenges, share experiences, and gain support from others who understand their journey. Group activities may include patient education, creative and expressive art, mindfulness exercises, relapse prevention workshops, and recreational outings.

Benefits of PHP Treatment in Massachusetts

One of the many benefits of participating in our Massachusetts PHP is its flexibility. Unlike inpatient care, PHP allows patients to maintain their daily routines and responsibilities outside treatment. This flexibility fosters a smoother transition back into everyday life while still receiving the necessary support and therapeutic interventions.

Patients also benefit from a structured environment that helps them to develop healthy routines and coping mechanisms. With a well-organized schedule of therapy sessions, group activities, and educational workshops, individuals can establish a sense of stability and predictability, which are crucial for long-term recovery.

Our PHP programs offer comprehensive care tailored to the specific needs of each individual. Our team of experienced healthcare professionals, including medical doctors, nurses, therapists, counselors, and addiction specialists, collaborate to create personalized treatment plans that address the unique challenges and goals of each person. This holistic approach ensures that individuals receive the appropriate therapeutic interventions, medication-assisted treatment, and support services to facilitate their recovery journey.

PHP treatment is particularly beneficial for individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders (also known as a dual diagnosis)––such as those experiencing mood disorders like depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) coupled with addiction. Our PHP provides integrated dual diagnosis treatment that targets both conditions simultaneously, promoting more sustainable and lasting recovery outcomes by addressing the underlying causes and interconnected nature of mental health and substance abuse.

When you contact Woburn Addiction Treatment, our team can help determine if this level of care will benefit you or a loved one based on your specific needs.

Is Participation in a PHP Necessary?

People are sometimes surprised to discover that more care is required after a residential program. However, we have observed that individuals who receive more care tend to have an easier time maintaining sobriety.

Fortunately, you do not have to remain in inpatient treatment for the entire duration. You can gradually transition back into your daily life, assuming more responsibilities while receiving focused medical support, therapeutic services, and managed care plans.

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) can also be a good option for those who require immediate care for addiction or mental health issues but have commitments that prevent them from being able to attend inpatient rehab. Considering a PHP as an alternative is worth exploring if you cannot pursue inpatient care.

As long as you continue to make progress, you can eventually transition from a PHP to a lower level of care, such as intensive outpatient or standard outpatient. While this may seem like a big commitment, it also ensures you receive ongoing support throughout recovery.
