Levels of Care
Mental healthcare at the residential and PHP levels at Life Healing Center in northern New Mexico
At Life Healing Center, each client participates in the level of care that best suits their current needs based on the symptoms and concerns they present with. Regardless of the level of care they enter, each client works with our clinical staff to create a treatment plan that consists of evidence-based modalities to assist in their wellness journey. Individuals who seek our assistance to manage mental health concerns typically enter treatment at the residential level. After completing residential care, clients who need additional support may step down to our partial hospitalization program (PHP).
Residential care: Individuals who are suffering from symptoms of mental health conditions often participate in residential treatment for 28 to 35 days, engaging in eight hours of evidence-based therapeutic programming each day. The trained behavioral health professionals on our staff are able to care for individuals who have a more acute clinical presentation of mental health symptoms.
Partial hospitalization program (PHP): This level of care offers six hours of structured therapeutic mental health services per day, at least five days per week. Clients who participate in our PHP may step up to our residential program if they need a higher level of care.
Each client who seeks care from Life Healing Center follows a personalized treatment plan that addresses the mental health symptoms they are experiencing. Based on this treatment plan, clients may participate in some of the following evidence-based modalities, as determined by their treatment team:
- Monitoring from psychiatrists and mental health nurse practitioners who are on-site seven days per week
- Medical intervention as needed
- Meetings with psychiatrists as often as needed
- Individual therapy sessions three times a week with a licensed master’s-level therapist, counselor, or social worker
- Family therapy once a week or as needed to educate and support the family unit
- Group therapy incorporating scientifically proven interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), skill–building, healthy body/healthy mind, and psychodrama
