About Salt Lake Behavioral Health
Salt Lake Behavioral Health is a private psychiatric hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah offering comprehensive addiction treatment and mental health services for adults 18 and older, including seniors. The facility's Courage to Change Addiction Medicine Program provides medical detox, residential rehab and step down outpatient care with specialized programming for veterans and military families. Using a trauma informed approach, Salt Lake Behavioral Health addresses substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health challenges in a medically supervised setting.
Addiction Treatment Programs
Treatment begins with medical detox for clients who need stabilization from alcohol or drugs, followed by the ASAM 3.7 residential rehab program—a 30 day inpatient track with around the clock nursing supervision and daily access to providers. This program uses Seeking Safety as its primary modality, integrating trauma informed care with addiction medicine to address the root causes of substance use.
After residential treatment, clients can step down to partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient services at Branches, a service of Salt Lake Behavioral Health. These programs offer group based therapy, medication management and flexible scheduling including daytime, evening and fully virtual options with specialized tracks for mental health, substance abuse or trauma.
Therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, individual and family counseling and medication assisted treatment for relapse prevention and long term recovery.
