Adults age 18 and older who are in need of structured treatment for behavioral health concerns can participate in the partial hospitalization program (PHP) offered at Delta Specialty Hospital. In this program, patients attend treatment five hours a day, five days a week for an average of four weeks. Each person’s individual needs influence their treatment plan as well as their length of stay, so actual program duration may vary. Daily programming depends on a person’s customized care plan, which can include evidence-based therapeutic modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, 12-Step programming, and life skills education. While someone can step down to this program from a higher level of care, they may also enter our PHP directly. We want to help ensure that our patients can fully focus on treatment without distractions or barriers to care. For this reason, we provide breakfast and lunch in our PHP as well as transportation to our treatment center as needed.

Dissociative Disorders (DID) Treatment Centers
How does therapy for dissociative disorders work?
Dissociation may be triggered by stress or other upsetting circumstances, and therapy can address the traumatic events at the core of an individual’s dissociation. Understanding why a person may dissociate can help the therapist and the individual come up with alternative methods of coping. A person with a dissociative disorder may get stuck on negative thinking, for example, and treatment like Cognitive behavioral therapy is a gold standard for breaking such thinking. And dialectical behavior therapy, for example, can help a person manage their anguish through better emotion regulation.
Which therapies are best for dissociative disorders?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, schema therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful memories and past traumas. These therapies work to integrate an individual's different identities into one person.
Are there specific medications for dissociation?
There are no specific medications prescribed for dissociative disorders. However, psychosis, depression, anxiety, and/or panic often co-occur in dissociative disorders. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for any accompanying symptom—which may include antipsychotics like aripiprazole, antidepressants like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or anti-anxiety drugs like benzodiazepines.
How often and how long are therapy sessions?
Like any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. There are still other patients, especially those who have co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, who may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months.
