Behavioral Health Programs Available at Steel Wellness for Referred Patients
Matching patients with the appropriate level of care is an important part of successful treatment.
Steel Wellness offers multiple outpatient programs in Pennsylvania designed to provide the right level of support while allowing individuals to maintain many of their daily responsibilities.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
PHP provides structured daytime treatment for individuals who need intensive clinical support without requiring inpatient care. Patients participate in therapy, skill development, and recovery planning before returning home each evening.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
IOP offers several days of structured therapy each week while allowing patients to continue working, attending school, or caring for family responsibilities. This level of care provides flexibility without sacrificing clinical support.
Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient treatment offers continued therapeutic support with fewer weekly treatment hours. Many patients transition into outpatient care after completing PHP or IOP while continuing to strengthen long-term recovery skills.
