Indio, California’s Premier Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) & Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Our partial hospitalization program and intensive outpatient program are structured care options that are designed for adults who need more support than traditional outpatient programs offer but do not require round-the-clock supervision. Patients can enter one of these programs directly or step down to them after completing a higher level of care, such as inpatient treatment. 

While participating in our PHP and IOP, patients work with a multidisciplinary team of professionals, including psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and licensed therapists. Each member of our team is committed to delivering individualized care, ensuring that every patient receives treatment that is tailored to their specific needs, goals, and circumstances. 

Our Indio PHP and IOP support adults who are coping with a range of mental health concerns, including: 

• Depression 

• Anxiety 

• Bipolar disorder 

• Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 

We can also provide care for people who have schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder as long as they are stable and not experiencing episodes of psychosis.

Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs can be essential resources for adults who are managing symptoms of mental health concerns and need a structured, supportive environment where they can focus on healing. Our PHP and IOP are designed to provide professional care during the day while allowing patients to practice the skills they are learning at home in the evenings. 

You may benefit from participating in our PHP or IOP in Indio, California, if you identify with any of the following: 

• Your symptoms feel overwhelming or difficult to manage on your own. 

• You find it challenging to keep up with daily responsibilities at home or work. 

• You need more structured therapy than traditional outpatient services can provide. 

• You have completed a higher level of care and want continued support as you transition back to everyday life. 

If you believe that any of these things apply to you, we invite you to reach out to our admissions team in Indio, California, today. We can help you determine whether our PHP or IOP is the right fit for your needs. 

When you participate in our partial hospitalization program or intensive outpatient program, you can feel confident knowing that you will receive care from a highly trained team of professionals. Our staff takes the time to understand each patient’s personal history, presenting symptoms, and wellness goals so that they can build a plan of care that truly meets them where they are in their healing process. 

We incorporate a variety of therapies and services into our PHP and IOP, which are outlined in each person’s individualized plan of care. The main method of care we use, however, is group therapy, which includes process groups and psychoeducation groups. 

• Process groups: In these sessions, patients have the opportunity to open up about their experiences and examine the feelings and emotions tied to those experiences. Working through emotions in a shared setting can deepen a sense of self-understanding, encourage meaningful growth, and create bonds of mutual support among group members. 

• Psychoeducation groups: These groups give patients the information and tools they need to take an active role in managing their symptoms. Topics may cover the nature of specific disorders, how to identify warning signs, the role medications can play, and practical strategies for building healthier coping skills. 

Additional therapies and services in our PHP and IOP include: 

• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) 

• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) 

• Acceptance and commitment therapy 

• Motivational interviewing 

• Art therapy 

• Medication management services 

At Coachella Valley Behavioral Health, we are dedicated to providing high-quality, whole-person care in a warm and welcoming environment where adults can focus on healing.  

Our PHP meets five days a week for five hours each day. Our IOP meets three days a week, three hours a day, Monday-Friday, and patients are able to choose which days work best with their schedule. In both programs, patients receive treatment during the daytime hours and then return home in the evenings and on weekends, allowing them to apply new skills in their everyday lives.
