Adult Outpatient Programs

The outpatient programs at Poplar Springs Hospital help adolescents ages 13-17 and adults ages 18+ recover from mental health issues, such as severe depression and anxiety. You receive intensive psychiatric treatment during the day and return home at night and on weekends.

Our outpatient services can help people stepping down from inpatient care or those who need more support and structure than individual therapy provides. Sessions are available online or in person.

For over 50 years, we have helped people in our community heal from mental health conditions. Our compassionate staff is trained to take a trauma-informed approach so you get the support you need to recover and feel your best. We have national accreditation from The Joint Commission, recognizing our commitment to high-quality care.

At Poplar Springs Hospital, you’ll find:

• Skilled care providers: You work with therapists, a psychiatrist, a registered nurse, a social worker and a peer support specialist. They coordinate your care and tailor treatment to your needs.
• Evidence-based treatment: Our therapies are grounded in current research and our clinical knowledge. For example, you receive cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to learn the coping skills you need to recover.
• Dual-diagnosis track: We offer treatment for both mental health and substance use disorders, so you receive the whole-person care you need.

You receive individual and group therapy five days a week from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The program lasts approximately four weeks. After this time, you may step down to our intensive outpatient program (IOP) to continue your recovery. Learn more about PHP.

• Managing mental health
• Improving problem solving
• Improving communication and coping skills used to deal with the stress and anxiety of daily life
