Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Physicians Behavioral Hospital specializes in treating adults with co-occurring psychiatric and substance use disorders under one roof.

The Addictive Disease Program includes medically supervised detox for alcohol, benzodiazepines and opiates alongside withdrawal management and pharmacotherapy in a secure inpatient setting.

Treatment blends cognitive behavioral therapy and milieu therapy, process groups and psychoeducation.

Patients can choose between a traditional 12 step model and SMART Recovery, allowing care to align with personal recovery preferences and underlying mental health needs.

Step Down Care

The partial hospitalization program offers 20 hours of structured weekly treatment in an intimate setting, while the intensive outpatient program supports adults who do not need 24 hour care.

To reduce barriers to attendance, both programs include transportation and lunch, helping clients stay engaged as they transition back to daily life.
