WHAT YOUR WEEK LOOKS LIKE

What a week in the program looks like

MORNING TRACK

9:00 AM to 12:00 PM Pacific, Monday through Friday. Three hour sessions of small groups led by licensed clinicians. Some groups teach skills you can use that same week, some explain what is happening in your mind and body, and some are space to talk through what is going on.

EVENING TRACK

5:00 PM to 8:00 PM Pacific, Monday through Friday, for people who work during the day. The same groups as the morning track, so you do not miss anything by choosing the evening.

AROUND THE GROUPS

Individual sessions with your therapist at least once a week, a treatment plan built around your goals, and medication management if it is part of your care. How medication management works
