Partial Hospitalization Program for Adults in St. Louis, MO & Kansas City

Patients will be responsible for practicing eating dinners and breakfast at home.  This is an excellent option for patients with significant outside support, high confidence in their ability to challenge fears or those stepping down from a higher level of care.

Our partial hospitalization programs are offered up to seven days per week, Monday through Sunday, at our St. Louis and Kansas City locations. Depending on the patient’s medical stability and treatment needs, they will be placed in either the Extended PHP (10 hours a day, 9:30am-7:30pm) or the Traditional PHP (6 hours a day, 9:30am-3:30pm) level of programming.

For Adults

Patients who receive care in our Adult Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) will have individual sessions, groups, and supported meals at our Adult Therapy Suites.  The Adult Therapy Suites boast several group and community areas, along with an art therapy room, a room designed for movement and yoga, a dining room and an onsite full service kitchen.
