Levels of Care
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
PHP serves to prevent hospitalization, as well as provides a solid bridge for those stepping down from a hospitalization or a residential treatment program. Our PHP meets in person five days a week for six hours per day, and includes individual, family, and group therapy, as well as nutrition counseling, meal support, and medical and psychiatric services. We also offer a separate PHP for adolescents, ages 12-18.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
IOP is designed to help individuals who are experiencing an increase in distressing symptoms and behaviors or are struggling to progress in traditional outpatient services. IOP treatment includes individual, family, and group therapy, as well as nutrition counseling and meal support to foster meaningful improvement and crate a solid foundation for clients before transitioning to traditional outpatient. Our IOP meets in-person three to five days a week for three hours a day.
Evening Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (V-IOP)
V-IOP is a convenient, effective, and COVID-safe treatment option that fosters meaningful improvement and provides a solid foundation for clients transitioning back to traditional outpatient treatment. Like our onsite IOP, our V-IOP offers individual, family, and group therapy, as well as nutrition counseling and meal support. Our V-IOP is offered Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm EST.
Our Program
At Aster Springs Outpatient Columbus, we provide customized care that’s designed to meet each client’s specific needs and unique goals. We understand that people are not their diagnosis; they’re a combination of all that’s happened in their lives and their future journeys. Because of this, our treatment team partners with clients and their families to design treatment plans that provide a successful pathway to recovery. Treatment can include psychotherapy groups, individual and family therapy, nutrition education, meal planning and support, and aftercare planning and assistance.
In a supportive and healing environment, we take a whole-person, trauma-informed approach to treatment using evidence-based modalities that facilitate progress from clinical care towards independent self-care. Our evidence-based therapies include dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), experiential and expressive therapies, and emotion-focused family therapy (EFFT). Selah House Outpatient – Columbus is an LGBTQ+ affirming environment and is inclusive of all religious preferences.
Experienced clinicians provide multidisciplinary treatment utilizing medical, nutritional, psychological, and psychiatric interventions. Our treatment philosophy values collaboration with the community, including regular education and coordination with outpatient providers, family members, and other members of each client’s support system. The two-way communication with each client’s community ensures clients receive seamless continuity of care as they transition into and out of our program.

What Alumni, Families, & Clinical Partners Are Saying
“I’m not one to usually leave reviews for places, but the outpatient program in Dublin, OH, was a really good program. Everyone who works there has such a big heart, and truly cares. This place has been truly the biggest help on my recovery journey. Not only did they just support me with my eating disorder recovery, but they also supported me in other areas. They are very accepting and supportive. Truly grateful for them!”

“I was in IOP with Aster Springs for over 3 months and I truly didn't know what to expect when I got there. The whole team was amazing, welcoming and truly wanted me to get better on my own time. I felt heard, like I could relax and take healing at my own pace. The groups were fun, inviting and they really make you feel special/heard. Thanks to my team and my therapist Kim, I feel like I am on a much stronger solid path now and that they saved my life. If you are struggling and have thought about getting help call them today. You will not regret it”
– Grateful Alumnus
