Lifeskills Outpatient Services

Our mental health treatment center in South Florida is dually licensed to
treat primary mental health and substance use disorders. As part of our mission, we believe that individuals can change with proper therapeutic support. At Lifeskills Delray Beach: Outpatient, we offer compassionate care that incorporates traditional, integrative, and expressive therapies and gives our clients the tools they need to live a life of freedom from their disorders. Our outpatient programs provide clients with opportunities to expand independent living skills while increasing their responsibilities. Clients may admit directly to the outpatient programs or based on clinical need, may step down from intensive residential treatment. At Lifeskills Delray Beach: Outpatient, we offer a partial hospitalization program (PHP) as well as an intensive outpatient program (IOP). Clients can live in our transitional living community, Osceola House, while attending PHP and IOP. Our PHP offers intensive treatment five days per week, consisting of highly structured, evidence-based therapy during the day. Our program provides clients autonomy in a safe environment to practice recovery skills in real-life situations. Our clinicians work with clients to provide a treatment plan that includes individual and group therapy sessions that help them learn skills needed to live an independent life outside of treatment. Many clients in PHP may be working, volunteering, or attending school. Our PHP groups include:

-Applying Cognitive Behavioral Skills Group
-Body and Health Group
-Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Group
-Family Dynamics Group
-Healthy Relationships Group
-Mindfulness Group
-Nutrition Group
-Primary Process Group
-Relapse Prevention Group
-Seeking Safety Group
-Vocational Group

IOP is a step-down level of treatment from residential treatment or our partial hospitalization program (PHP). Our IOP is designed to help support the recovery process and involves 10 hours of treatment per week. Based upon the intake assessment, there are two tracks available: an 8-week track or a 12-week track. Our IOP groups include:

-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Group
-DBT Group
-Healthy Relationships Group
-Life Skills Group
-Mindfulness Group
-Relapse Prevention Group

We believe that each person can change with the right support. Our programming is built on a foundation of evidence-based best practices, integrated care, life skills training, and family support; with Six Clinical Pathways led by a doctoral-level or licensed clinicians who create tailored and flexible treatment plans that empower each person to sustain long-term recovery. Embedded within our Six Clinical Pathways are a variety of evidence-based, best-practice clinical modalities that are prescribed based on each client’s diagnosis to ensure treatment is tailored appropriately.
