When someone struggles with severe symptoms of a mental health disorder, they need to find a structured program that provides treatment several days per week. For many, this means attending a partial hospitalization program (PHP). Montare at the Canyon created a treatment plan for PHP in Los Angeles that helps transform the lives of people with all types of mental illnesses. Our dedicated staff meets with each person several times per week to provide focused support and treatment. We teach people how to minimize their symptoms of poor mental health and work toward a brighter and more peaceful future.
What is a Partial Hospitalization Program?
A partial hospitalization program is the highest level of outpatient treatment. People who attend PHP in Los Angeles, California receive care similar to that provided in residential programs, but they do not have to move out of their homes. Outpatient care takes place during the day and requires the individual to travel to a facility where their therapy sessions take place. PHP appointments usually happen five to seven days per week for several hours per day.
People who attend PHP often enter it after attending residential treatment. It helps continue the curriculum started in a residential program while allowing the person to move back home and restart their lives while still receiving help several days per week. For those whose mental illness is not severe enough to require residential care, PHP may be the first step in treatment. After completing PHP, it is common to begin a lower level of outpatient care that requires less time in therapy.
Benefits of a PHP for Treating Mental Health
One of the benefits of attending PHP is that it gives people access to mental health experts who treat many different kinds of disorders. PHP commonly treats the following mental illnesses:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Mood disorders
- Bipolar disorder
- Borderline personality disorder
- Schizophrenia
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)/Trauma
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
- Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
- Eating disorders
PHP can also provide support for dual diagnosis, which is the presence of both a mental illness and an addiction to drugs or alcohol.
As well, PHP provides a safe place for each person to rely on in which they can open up to their therapists. Having this support several days per week empowers them to sort through issues affecting their mental health. Additionally, during group therapy sessions, people get the benefit of peer support from people who understand the difficulties of dealing with poor mental health.

Are Partial Hospitalization Programs Effective?
PHP treatment is designed to help people who need daily or almost daily support from therapists and other mental health professionals. Those who otherwise might succumb to increased symptoms of mental illness or not make any progress beyond their current condition often find PHP to be quite effective. PHP serves as a real bridge between living in a residential facility and learning to cope and improve one’s mental health while living without regular therapeutic support.

Difference Between Our IOP and PHP in Los Angeles
The main difference between IOP (intensive outpatient programs) and PHP is the time spent in therapy sessions each week. IOP generally requires a person to attend therapy appointments three to five days per week for a few hours each day. Because PHP is a higher level of care, the therapy sessions take place five to seven days per week for a longer period of time each day.
