≪ Levels of Care → Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
A step down from residential care, our PHP offers structured support with evidence-based therapies and personalized eating disorder treatment plans to help clients transition to the next phase of recovery.
Why Choose Aster Springs for PHP?
Rather than an abrupt return to daily life after residential treatment, our PHP provides a structured step toward independence. Clients continue developing well-being, personal growth, and essential recovery skills while benefiting from consistent programming and staff. PHP includes six hours of group therapy, five days a week, and family therapy when appropriate. Nearby housing options are available for clients who need accommodations.
