PHP is the most structured level of outpatient care at Grand Rising — five days a week of group therapy, individual therapy, and psychiatric services in a full daily schedule. It is built for adults stabilizing after a hospitalization, moving through a behavioral health crisis, or finding that session-based therapy hasn't held.

The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Grand Rising Behavioral Health is the most structured level of outpatient care we offer. Five days a week, for roughly five hours a day, you take part in a full daily schedule of group therapy, individual therapy, and psychiatric services — delivered in person at our Norwood location or via telehealth for eligible Massachusetts residents. It is a full clinical day without a hospital stay: you return home each afternoon and practice what you are learning in real life.
PHP serves adults who need more than weekly appointments can provide — people stabilizing after a hospitalization, moving through a behavioral health crisis, or discovering that session-based therapy simply hasn't held. Many of our clients arrive treating anxiety, depression, or trauma alongside substance use or another co-occurring condition.
Structure is the point. When symptoms are acute, long gaps between appointments leave too much room for things to unravel. A predictable daily rhythm — the same team, the same schedule, daily clinical contact — creates the stability from which real therapeutic work becomes possible.
PHP is built for adults who need daily clinical support while continuing to live at home. It may be the right level of care if you are:
PHP at Grand Rising treats adults living with mental health conditions, substance use, and — very often — the combination of the two. One integrated team treats the whole picture, rather than sending you to separate programs for separate diagnoses.
Three simple steps from your first call to your first session — no referral needed.
Call our 24/7 admissions line or send a message. We'll ask about symptoms, safety needs, and your goals, then schedule a comprehensive assessment. Your clinician will recommend the Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) & Outpatient Program (OP) based on functioning, risk, and availability, and will explain why.
Grand Rising Behavioral Health is out-of-network for insurance. Many clients with PPO plans use out-of-network benefits; others choose private pay. Our team will verify benefits, estimate costs and deductible implications, and provide documentation to help with reimbursement.
Next step: Get clear cost estimates before you start.
Verify InsuranceWhen clinically appropriate, secure telehealth sessions are available to Massachusetts residents. We'll confirm eligibility, technology needs, and whether your specific program (e.g., the Intensive Outpatient Program) can be offered virtually or in a hybrid format.

Inpatient care means being admitted to a hospital around the clock. PHP delivers a comparable intensity of daily treatment — therapy and psychiatric care about five hours a day, five days a week — but you live at home and return to your own routine each evening. For many adults, it is the step that follows a hospitalization or helps prevent one.
Grand Rising is an out-of-network provider. We work with PPO plans that include out-of-network benefits, and we accept private pay. Our admissions team will verify your benefits before you start so you know what to expect financially — call us today and we will handle the legwork.
There is no fixed length, and we don't promise one. Your care team reviews your progress regularly and recommends how long PHP should continue based on how you are actually doing. When you are ready, most clients step down to our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) rather than ending treatment abruptly.
Yes. Eligible Massachusetts residents can complete PHP via telehealth, with the same daily schedule of groups, individual sessions, and psychiatric services as the in-person program at our Norwood location.
Call our 24/7 admissions line — it is answered 365 days a year. We will talk through what is going on, verify your out-of-network benefits, and schedule a clinical assessment to confirm that PHP is the right level of care for you.
Take the first step towards a healthier, more balanced life. Our admissions team is here to guide you through the process and find the right level of care for your unique needs.
