Trauma
Personality Disorders
We provide intensive outpatient (IOP) and group psychotherapy options.
Our intensive therapy services help when patients are:
- feeling stuck in treatment
- looking for more traction and forward momentum than their once- or twice-weekly therapy sessions are providing
- stepping down from inpatient hospitalization or residential treatment
All of our programming is provided in an outpatient setting which allows patients to remain at home and continue fulfilling their household, work and/or school responsibilities.
Our experienced, expert clinicians help clients understand themselves, their symptoms, and find critical footing to get their lives back and moving in a forward direction.
Our mission
To fill the critical treatment gap between individual therapy and inpatient hospitalization by offering Intensive Outpatient psychotherapy services (IOP). Our programming allows patients to take a dive deep into treatment and effectively focus on healing and living.
To provide high-quality, expert-driven, and personalized mental health treatment services for adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, and personality disorders. Consequently, our programming helps patients reduce their symptoms, relieve their suffering, increase their self-awareness, and improve their relationships.
Our Core Values
Intensive, Integrative Treatment Format
We offer the opportunity for patients to dive deeply into treatment without the need for inpatient or residential psychiatric hospitalization.
Our programming integrates mentalizing, psychodynamic and interpersonal orientations, dialectical behavior therapy, and family systems into our group programming, As a result, patients have an opportunity to be informed consumers as they learn different therapeutic styles and discover which styles are particularly helpful for their specific needs.
The intensive outpatient program is like a mini-laboratory where patients are encouraged to practice new skills and observe themselves as a way to learn what fuels their psychological difficulties.
Expert & Experienced Clinical Treatment Team
Our diverse treatment team is made up of experienced clinicians who have expertise across theoretical and clinical frameworks. Petoskey Center clinicians use tried and true techniques to address the underlying issues that get in the way of clients reaching their full potential. Specifically, our team utilizes mentalizing, psychodynamic and interpersonal orientations, dialectical behavior therapy, and family systems to understand the complexity of each patient.
Therapists meet frequently to discuss the unique experiences of each patient and shape each group based upon patients’ specific needs. This collaboration provides a level of care and understanding that speaks to the depth of our mission to provide excellent, personalized care,
Engaged, Caring, & Supportive Patient Milieu
One of the most important dynamics of group work is the establishment of strong connections between clients. All patients attend all groups together which gives gives them the opportunity establish safe and meaningful relationships with each other. Patients are able to learn with and from each other as they move from one group to the next, together.
As a result, patients form a strong community in which they can build trust, take healthy emotional risks, and implement new patterns of functioning. Ultimately, these rich connections allow patients to feel safe as they challenge themselves to address the difficult issues that brought them to treatment in the first place.
Personalized, Quality Care
Our groups are shaped around the needs of the patients in the program. We don’t have a rigid curriculum that patients must fit into. Instread, we have a structure which can be molded to fit the specific needs of the patients. Therefore, our therapists shape each group session around the needs of our current patients.
Given the intensity of our program, we make every effort to ensure that clients needs match the resources of our program. This means that we don’t accept every patient into our program. We are highly exclusive in matching patient needs to our program and to the culture of the community.
We provide affordable treatment options that help patients get the support, structure, and intensive treatment
they need to live their lives to the fullest.
