Treatment Outcomes

Across all levels of care, patients typically reported improvement after one episode of care (EOC). Those who continued their treatment journey reported even greater clinical gains.

From the onset of care, therapeutic alliance was strongly established. When patients feel safe, validated, and supported, they are more likely to be engaged with their treatment. Those with stronger bonds also were more likely to report greater reduction in depression and anxiety.

Across programs, the most common mental health diagnoses treated were depression and anxiety. Substance use treatment leaned heavily towards alcohol, cannabis, and at the Detox level of care, opioids.

Teens who completed PHP reported significant reductions in depression and anxiety, moving from moderate to mild distress. These improvements showed medium-to-large effects and met the standard for statistically meaningful, noticeable clinical change.

At intake, teens reported depression and anxiety below the moderate range, which may reflect underreporting of distress. Even with these low starting scores, both symptoms decreased significantly to the none-to-minimal range by discharge.

As with Dual Diagnosis IOP teens, Mental Health IOP teens may have underreported some distress at intake, with symptoms near the moderate range. By the end of treatment, depression and anxiety decreased significantly into the mild range, reflecting noticeable improvement.

Young adults who entered residential care with moderate-to-severe symptoms showed clear reductions in depression and anxiety by discharge.

Young adults in residential treatment reported significant reductions in depression and anxiety, moving from moderate to mild distress. These improvements had large statistical effects and met the standard for reliable, clinically meaningful change.

Young adults who completed PHP reported significant reductions in depression and anxiety, moving from moderate to mild distress. These improvements met the threshold for reliable, clinically-meaningful change.

Young adults in Dual Diagnosis IOP may have underreported depression and anxiety at intake, with scores near clinical cutoffs. Even with these lower starting scores, both symptoms decreased significantly, with clinically-meaningful improvements by the end of treatment.

Young adults in Mental Health IOP reported significant reductions in depression and anxiety, moving from moderate to mild distress. These improvements had large statistical effects and met the threshold for reliable, clinically-meaningful change.

Adults who completed residential treatment reported significant reductions in depression and anxiety, moving from moderate to mild distress. These improvements showed large effects and met the strict standards for reliable, clinically-meaningful change.

Adolescents developed strong therapeutic relationships across levels of care, as seen here in the findings for PHP and the clinical team. Overall, 91% reported strong rapport with their clinical team. This connection started out strong and continued throughout care.

Adults formed strong connections with their treatment teams in both detox and residential care. As seen here in the detox example, 95% reported strong bonds with nursing and behavioral health staff. Our findings also showed that 95% of patients reported strong rapport with their clinical team, even within this shorter, intensive level of care.
