Overview

Welcome to our PHP and IOP Programs in Berkeley, CA

Located in Berkeley, CA our state of the art Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) Programs offer daily psychotherapy and group-based treatment as well as ongoing psychiatric care to adolescents and adults with specialized programming tracks to meet your individual needs. Our evidence-based programs include intensive cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy for individuals requiring more structure and support than a typical outpatient visit can provide.

Our Programs: Tailored Care for Your Needs

We understand that each individual is unique, which is why we offer specialized treatment tracks tailored to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re an adolescent navigating school, family, and peer relationships, or an adult managing life stressors, our evidence-based programs are designed to provide intensive therapy and ongoing psychiatric care.

What We Offer

Our PHP and IOP programs provide daily psychotherapy and group-based treatment to help you work through your challenges in a supportive, structured environment.

  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): A higher level of care designed for individuals requiring intensive therapy, but who don’t require 24/7 supervision.
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): A flexible treatment option for individuals who need structured support but still want to live at home and maintain daily responsibilities.

Evidence-Based Therapies for Effective Results

Our programs utilize evidence-based treatment models to ensure the best outcomes for our clients. We incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into our treatment plans, both of which have been proven to be highly effective in treating a range of mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Focuses on changing negative patterns of thinking and behavior, empowering individuals to manage their emotions and reactions in healthier ways.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Specially designed for individuals with intense emotions, DBT helps individuals regulate their emotions, improve relationships, and reduce harmful behaviors.

FAQ

Who can benefit from a PHP or IOP program?

Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient are intensive time-limited modalities of treatment for people who are struggling with symptoms that are severely impacting their lives. A welcoming, group-based program of skills groups, cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy interventions, and frequent meetings with a dedicated psychiatrist will help restore you to your best self. Our doctors are recognized for their commitment to non-judgemental, compassionate, trauma-informed care for all individuals.

Our psychiatrists staff adult PHP & IOP programs for mood, anxiety, and psychotic disorders, as well as a specialized track for adults with eating disorders. In addition, we have a unique program of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for patients with Borderline Personality Disorder. We also have an adolescent program for teens age 12-18. An intake coordinator will help to determine which track will be most effective for you.

A typical PHP day varies somewhat depending on the specific program, but hours are generally from around 9-3 Monday through Friday, with a break in the middle of the day. Lunch is provided. The program is quite individualized: once you are starting to feel a bit better, you might step down to a shorter day, or attend fewer than five days a week, and we will work with you to determine what schedule will be best for you.

A typical IOP day varies somewhat depending on the specific program, but hours are generally from around 9-12 Monday through Friday. The program is quite individualized: once you are starting to feel a bit better, you might step down to a shorter day, or attend fewer than five days a week, and we will work with you to determine what schedule will be best for you.

Length of stay is individualized based on your needs, but we typically do expect individuals to commit to two weeks of full-time treatment, after which time some people may choose to participate in more treatment, or step down to a part-time program.

We work with many college and high school age people, and will help you to coordinate with your school around taking a leave or withdrawal from your program while you are in treatment.

Our PHP & IOP programs will offer you regular meetings with one of BPA’s dedicated psychiatrists. In those meetings, we will work collaboratively with you to think about all the different ways that we might be able to help, recognizing that medication is just one of many tools available. Our psychiatrists are dedicated to your wellness.
