Your journey begins with a comprehensive clinical assessment and a meeting with our clinical team within your first 24 hours. Together with your assigned therapist and case manager, you'll develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses both substance use and any co-occurring mental health conditions. This phase is about getting grounded — understanding where you are so we can map where you're going.
With your treatment plan in place, you'll move into the heart of the program. Daily group sessions build your toolkit — CBT helps you identify and reframe negative thought patterns, DBT teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and ACT helps you develop psychological flexibility. Weekly individual therapy goes deeper into your personal story. Between sessions, psychoeducation groups give you the knowledge to understand what's happening in your brain and body during recovery.
Your daily rhythm settles into a structured pattern: morning groups followed by individual work, a shared lunch that builds community, then afternoon psychoeducation and case management before heading home at 3:30pm. It's intensive but sustainable — designed to fill your day with purpose without burning you out.
As your confidence grows, the focus shifts from learning skills to applying them. You'll practice new coping strategies in real-life situations — managing stress at home, navigating relationships, and building healthy routines. Sober activities like nature-based therapy, hiking, and community events help you discover that life in recovery can be genuinely fulfilling. Family involvement deepens through therapy sessions and monthly support groups.
Before you leave PHP, we build a bridge to what comes next. Your care team coordinates your transition to IOP (morning or evening tracks available), connects you with our alumni network, and sets up any external referrals you may need. If sober living is part of your plan, we help arrange that too. You'll leave with a clear aftercare plan, ongoing support, and the knowledge that Trailhead's community remains open to you.

Verify Your CoverageOur PHP treats a full range of substance use disorders including alcohol, opioids, heroin, fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamine, benzodiazepines, marijuana, kratom, and prescription drug abuse. We also address less common dependencies including synthetic drugs, hallucinogens, inhalants, stimulants, barbiturates, and MDMA. Whatever the substance, our clinical framework adapts to your specific needs.
Many clients come to us with more than just a substance use disorder. We treat co-occurring anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, panic disorders, trauma, and self-harm behaviors. Our dual-diagnosis approach ensures both conditions are addressed simultaneously — because treating one without the other rarely leads to lasting recovery.
