PHP - Women's Behavioral Health Programs

For clients who have completed residential treatment or do not require 24-hour care, our partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides a structured day treatment model.

Women's Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) is a flexible treatment option for clients who are transitioning from higher levels of care or those who need structured support while balancing work, family, or school commitments.

Women's Behavioral Health Programs at The Wave

Women’s behavioral health programs are designed to support emotional wellness, personal growth, and long-term stability in a safe, nurturing environment. These programs focus on treating mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma-related disorders, and mood or personality disorders, all while addressing the unique ways women experience and respond to mental health challenges. At The Wave of Edgewater, every level of care is grounded in evidence-based therapies, individualized treatment planning, and a strong emphasis on community and connection.

Our residential treatment program offers the highest level of care and support. Women live on-site in a comfortable, structured setting where healing can begin without the distractions or triggers of everyday life. Here, clients benefit from around-the-clock care, intensive daily therapy, and the stability of a secure environment where trust can be rebuilt and progress can take root. This setting allows space for women to dive deep into therapeutic work, develop coping tools, and rediscover their sense of identity and purpose.

For those who don’t need 24-hour supervision but still require structured, consistent care, our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offer flexible yet comprehensive options. PHP provides full-day treatment with the ability to return home or to supportive housing in the evenings. IOP allows women to participate in therapy several days a week while managing work, school, or family responsibilities. Both levels of care are ideal for women stepping down from residential treatment or seeking intensive help without full-time residency. Through every stage, our women’s behavioral health programs are built to foster resilience, restore emotional balance, and empower lifelong wellness.
