Care is delivered through structured day and evening programming rather than overnight residential stays, which lets clients keep working, studying, or caring for family while in treatment. The approach is calm, clinically credible, and human: real clinicians, real facilities, and clear information about levels of care, insurance, and how to start. ## Levels of care These are the levels of care offered, described in the way insurance carriers recognize them: - Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) / Day Treatment: The highest-intensity outpatient level. A structured day program for stabilization and skill-building without overnight stays. In Massachusetts this Day Treatment is recognized by insurance carriers as PHP.
