"About the Program

We offer a continuum of services to meet the individual needs of adults diagnosed with major depression. We specialize in helping individuals with treatment-resistant depression as well as individuals with complex co-occurring issues like alcohol or substance use, anxiety, or borderline personality disorder"

For individuals leaving the hospital, our residential program offers a safe next step. When outpatient therapy isn't enough, our day treatment program (sometimes called partial hospitalization) provides an immersive opportunity to get to the next level.

Longer lengths of stay in both programs give our clients the time and support they need to safely rebuild thought and behavior patterns and learn skills to cope with stress, depressed mood, low energy, poor concentration, and challenges with sleep and diet. As our clients' active symptoms are resolved through medication and counseling, they can focus on developing the skills they need to work toward specific goals, whether engaging in meaningful relationships, finding a healthy work-life balance, enjoying activities or hobbies again, or taking a more active role in the community.

When I was so low, I cut with a blade
To punish my body for being a mess,
Though here is my testament, I must confess...

That seeing these scars left on my arms, legs, and chest
Makes me realize I was in a place of no rest;
I feel guilty inside for leaving this token.
Now I will see and remember that I was so broken.

But seeing these scars helps me see
That I survived so much trauma and now I am free.
So I ask you now to stand with me and fight,
To show all these demons what they're doing is not right.

You won the battle of good versus bad.
You are still alive and are no longer sad.
Here on my arm lies a mark of survival.
I got through my hate and beat my self-riva
