Peninsula Health Center is not a 12 step based or SMART Recovery program.

We do incorporate tenets of recovery based programming in some of our care and strongly encourage all of our patients to participate in recovery based programs. We understand that our patients are varied and their preferences are also varied. We encourage our patients to find the support that works for them so that they can find meaningful and lasting recovery whether that is through AA, SMART Recovery, or any recovery oriented model.
Our partial hospitalization program is a more intensive level of outpatient treatment. Patients in our PHP program will participate in treatment six hours a day Monday through Friday. At this level of care our patients will meet with their primary therapist twice weekly as well as weekly appointments with their doctor. Patients participating in our Intensive Outpatient Program will receive similar clinical programming; however, they will participate in treatment three hours a day Monday through Friday. At this level of care our patients are more suited for weekly individual sessions with their primary therapist and biweekly appointments with their doctor so that they can begin returning to normalcy in career, education, or volunteer life while under the care of a supportive clinical setting to prepare them for life post treatment.
The length of detoxification varies from patient to patient depending on several factors including drugs of choice, frequency and longevity of use, age, and co-occurring medical concerns. Your individual detoxification will be discussed with your doctor as part of the initial medical intake and implementation of your medication protocols.
