What is the Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)?
At Greater Boston Addiction Centers (GBAC), we offer a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) as a critical step in the recovery process for individuals battling addiction. Our PHP provides intensive, structured treatment during the day while allowing individuals to return home or to a sober living environment in the evening. This level of care is ideal for those who need more support than an outpatient program offers but do not require the 24/7 supervision of a residential treatment program.

What Does PHP Involve?
The Partial Hospitalization Program at GBAC is designed to provide comprehensive care that addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of addiction. Our program runs for several hours each day, typically 5-7 days a week, offering a highly focused environment for recovery.
Key components of our PHP include:
- Individual Therapy: Personalized one-on-one sessions with licensed therapists to address the root causes of addiction and any co-occurring mental health conditions.
- Group Therapy: Collaborative sessions where clients can share experiences, gain support, and learn from others in a structured setting.
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Focuses on accepting difficult emotions while committing to actions aligned with personal values. It encourages mindfulness to reduce avoidance of painful experiences.
- Relapse Prevention Planning: Strategies to recognize triggers, manage cravings, and prevent relapse, preparing clients for life after treatment.
- Holistic Approaches: Integrating mindfulness, stress reduction techniques, and wellness activities to promote a well-rounded recovery experience.
Recovery can be a long and difficult journey. Fortunately, nobody has to get sober alone. Addiction treatment programs in Boston can help you or a loved one rediscover a life of sobriety.
Addiction Therapies Offered In GBAC’s PHP:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): Helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors related to addiction.
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT): Focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and building healthy coping mechanisms.
- Trauma-informed care: Addresses past traumas that may have contributed to substance use, creating a safe space for healing.
- Dual Diagnosis Treatment: Treats co-occurring mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, or PTSD, alongside addiction.
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): Uses medications like Suboxone or Vivitrol to help manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings as part of a comprehensive recovery plan.
Throughout your time in PHP, you’ll receive support from experienced mental health therapists and medical professionals. You’ll also have the opportunity to connect with other members of the recovery community, building bonds that offer additional support during your journey.

Who Can Benefit from a PHP?
PHP is suited for individuals who need a higher level of care than what a standard outpatient program provides but do not require the intensity of a full residential treatment program.
