About the program
What Is a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) for Addiction?
A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is one of the most comprehensive outpatient treatment options available for individuals recovering from substance use disorders.
PHP provides several hours of structured treatment multiple days each week, allowing clients to receive intensive clinical care while gradually returning to everyday life.
Unlike inpatient rehabilitation, PHP allows clients to leave treatment each day and return home or to a supportive living environment.
This creates opportunities to immediately begin applying the coping skills, communication techniques, and recovery strategies learned during treatment while still receiving ongoing professional support.
PHP is often recommended for individuals who:
PHP helps bridge the gap between inpatient care and independent recovery.
What we treat
Comprehensive Treatment for Substance Use Disorders
Addiction affects every individual differently.
Whether someone is struggling with alcohol, prescription medications, opioids, stimulants, or multiple substances, treatment should address the whole person, not simply the addiction itself.
Casa Recovery provides treatment for:
- Alcohol Use Disorder
- Opioid Addiction
- Prescription Drug Addiction
- Benzodiazepine Dependence
- Cocaine Addiction
- Methamphetamine Addiction
- Marijuana Use Disorder
- Stimulant Addiction
- Polysubstance Use
Every treatment plan is individualized to help clients understand the underlying causes of addiction while building practical recovery skills that support lifelong sobriety.
Alcohol addiction
PHP for Alcohol Addiction
Alcohol addiction is one of the most common behavioral health conditions affecting adults today.
Because alcohol is legal and socially accepted, many individuals continue functioning at work, caring for their families, and maintaining daily responsibilities while quietly struggling with dependence.
Over time, alcohol use often begins affecting:
- Physical health
- Mental health
- Relationships
- Career performance
- Financial stability
- Overall quality of life
Many individuals reach a point where simply "cutting back" is no longer enough.
Our Partial Hospitalization Program for alcohol addiction provides structured therapy, relapse prevention planning, psychiatric support, and individualized care designed to help clients establish lasting recovery after detoxification or residential treatment.
Rather than focusing only on stopping alcohol use, treatment helps clients build healthier ways to manage stress, emotions, relationships, and everyday challenges without relying on alcohol.
Drug addiction
PHP for Drug Addiction
Drug addiction often develops gradually, making it difficult for individuals to recognize how significantly substance use has affected their lives.
Whether dependence involves prescription medications, opioids, cocaine, methamphetamine, marijuana, or other substances, recovery requires more than physical abstinence.
Our PHP helps clients:
- Understand addiction
- Identify triggers
- Develop relapse prevention skills
- Improve emotional regulation
- Build healthier relationships
- Strengthen communication skills
- Develop long-term recovery plans
Our clinical team works collaboratively with each client to create a personalized treatment plan designed to support lasting recovery.
Is PHP right for you?
Who Can Benefit from Addiction PHP?
Our Partial Hospitalization Program is appropriate for adults who require a higher level of care than traditional outpatient counseling but do not need 24-hour residential treatment.
PHP may be recommended for individuals who:
- Recently completed medical detox
- Completed residential treatment
- Experienced a relapse
- Continue struggling with cravings
- Need additional structure during early recovery
- Require psychiatric support
- Are managing both addiction and mental health concerns
- Want to strengthen relapse prevention skills before returning fully to work or everyday responsibilities
Every client's recovery journey is unique. Our team works closely with each individual to determine whether PHP is the most appropriate level of care based on their current needs and recovery goals.
What to expect
What to Expect During Casa Recovery's Addiction Partial Hospitalization Program
Beginning addiction treatment is one of the most important decisions a person can make. At Casa Recovery, we recognize that every individual's recovery journey is different, which is why our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is personalized to meet each client's unique needs, challenges, and goals.
Before treatment begins, every client completes a comprehensive clinical assessment. This evaluation allows our team to better understand your substance use history, mental health, medical history, family dynamics, previous treatment experiences, and recovery goals.
Using this information, we create an individualized treatment plan designed to help you build a strong foundation for lasting recovery.
Throughout PHP, clients participate in several hours of structured treatment each day while receiving ongoing support from licensed therapists, addiction specialists, psychiatrists, and case managers.
A typical day may include:
Each component of treatment is designed to help clients develop the skills needed to maintain long-term sobriety while improving their overall emotional health.
How we treat
Evidence-Based Addiction Treatment
At Casa Recovery, we believe successful addiction treatment should address both the addiction itself and the underlying factors contributing to substance use. Our Partial Hospitalization Program incorporates evidence-based therapies that have been shown to improve recovery outcomes while helping clients develop healthier ways to manage stress, emotions, and life's challenges.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps clients recognize unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to addiction. Clients learn practical strategies for:
- Managing cravings
- Reducing relapse risk
- Challenging negative thinking
- Building healthier behavioral patterns
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Many individuals recovering from addiction struggle with emotional regulation. DBT teaches practical skills including:
- Emotional regulation
- Distress tolerance
- Mindfulness
- Healthy communication
- Interpersonal effectiveness
These skills help clients navigate difficult emotions without returning to alcohol or drugs.
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Trauma frequently plays a significant role in addiction. Our clinicians provide trauma-informed care that allows clients to safely process difficult experiences while developing healthier coping strategies that support long-term recovery.
Individual Therapy
Clients meet regularly with a licensed therapist to explore the personal experiences, emotional challenges, and behavioral patterns contributing to substance use. Individual therapy provides a safe space to develop personalized recovery goals while addressing obstacles that may interfere with long-term sobriety.
Group Therapy
Group therapy remains one of the most valuable components of addiction treatment. Through guided discussions, clients gain support from others facing similar challenges while learning:
- Relapse prevention strategies
- Healthy communication
- Emotional regulation
- Accountability
- Problem-solving skills
Many individuals find strength in knowing they are not alone during recovery.
Relapse Prevention & Recovery Planning
Recovery does not end when treatment concludes. One of the primary goals of our Partial Hospitalization Program is helping clients build a practical recovery plan they can continue using long after leaving PHP. Treatment focuses on helping clients:
- Identify personal triggers
- Recognize early warning signs of relapse
- Develop healthy coping skills
- Create structured daily routines
- Build supportive relationships
- Improve stress management
- Increase self-awareness
- Strengthen confidence in recovery
Rather than simply teaching individuals how to avoid substances, we help them create healthier, more meaningful lives that support lasting sobriety.
Medication Management & Psychiatric Support
Many individuals recovering from substance use disorders also experience anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health conditions. Our psychiatric providers evaluate each client's emotional health throughout treatment and provide medication management when clinically appropriate. Medication is carefully integrated into each individual's treatment plan while remaining part of a comprehensive recovery approach that includes therapy, education, behavioral interventions, and ongoing clinical support.
Family Involvement
Addiction affects not only the individual but also the people who care about them most. When appropriate, Casa Recovery encourages family involvement throughout treatment. Family therapy and educational sessions help loved ones:
- Better understand addiction
- Improve communication
- Rebuild trust
- Establish healthy boundaries
- Support long-term recovery
Creating a healthier family system often plays an important role in sustained recovery after treatment.
