What are Outpatient Behavioral Services?
Many behavioral health conditions can be treated without hospitalization through outpatient programs and therapies. Our team of psychiatrists and psychologists provide medication management, ongoing individual counseling, group therapy and other mental health services.
Our Services
Summa Health‘s Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a step below inpatient hospitalization and can be used as an alternative to inpatient treatment. Our PHP is appropriate for patients with a wide range of mental health conditions. It provides patients with four to six hours of intensive structured outpatient psychiatry services daily (Monday through Friday) as an alternative to inpatient psychiatric care. The program uses multiple mental health interventions through individual and group therapy that address the individualized mental health needs of the patient. The program provides 20+ hours of treatment, sometimes more, each week.
Summa Health offers several Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) for a variety of needs. We offer IOPs in the areas of general psychiatry, substance abuse and trauma.
The Traumatic Stress Center at Summa Health is dedicated to the treatment and investigation of traumatic stress and its consequences.
The Summa Health Behavioral Health Institute uses procedural-based treatments to help alleviate mental distress. This type of treatment often is used once traditional treatments, much as medication, have failed.
Summa Health offers a broad spectrum of specialized addiction services, including medication-assisted treatment (MAT). MAT uses FDA-approved medications, in combination with counseling, to provide a “whole-patient” approach to treat those addicted to alcohol, opioids, methamphetamine and other substances. In general, MAT works in the brain to manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings.
Whether you’re struggling to cope with situational stressors or chronic mental health challenges, our providers are equipped to comprehensively assess and treat your specific needs. Summa’s outpatient behavioral health team is comprised of a diverse team of psychiatrists, psychologists and Advanced Practice Providers who access a variety of interventions in developing customized treatment plans. Interventions include, but are not limited to: medication management, individual and group therapy and expressive therapies. For more information, call 330.379.8190.
