When we develop these four areas; it creates a choice.  ‘We want to be able to choose anger, not let it choose us.’

Mental Health Day Treatment Group is a highly structured, intensive, and goal-oriented service provided by licensed and trained mental health professionals. The purpose and intent of this group is to stabilize, sustain, or increase an individual’s level of functioning in relation to their mental health related symptoms and work towards an improved quality of life. The group aims to prevent or minimize the need for a more intensive level of treatment (for example, inpatient hospitalization) and may also function as a step-down for inpatient care or transitional care following an inpatient stay to facilitate return to the community.

These services are not only for those experiencing crises in their relationships, but also for those who need help working through important decisions and those who are just looking to strengthen their relationships. The focus of these services will vary, but each session will seek to explore the various ways each person contributes and responds to their relational “system” and discover new and better ways to interact in healthy and healing ways.

We also have Christian pre-marital, marital and family therapy options available by request.
