The center’s treatment approach incorporates different kinds of therapy to meet each person's needs. Services include individual and group counseling, crisis intervention, psychiatric evaluations, medication support, and harm reduction for substance use. Their assertive community treatment (ACT) Team delivers intensive, mobile, community-based support to individuals with serious psychiatric disabilities. This team works to improve quality of life and reduce hospitalizations by offering daily treatment services, plus 24/7 crisis intervention. In addition to traditional care, the hospital offers specialized programs like a partial day hospital for those in crisis, a smoking cessation clinic, and recovery services for individuals at risk of HIV.
