DIRECTION BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ASSOCIATES
Welcome!
Direction is a diverse team of clinicians dedicated to bringing excellent, innovative mental health care to children and their families. Over the past 13 years, we have served over 3000 clients and have won over a lot of skeptical kids who thought that mental health care has to be really boring.
At the heart of Direction is our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), both of which offer daily psychiatric services including group therapy, work with parents, and medication management. The IOP runs 3 hours per day, the PHP runs 5 hours per day. They are designed for clients dealing with all forms of mental health and substance abuse crises which demand more attention than standard outpatient treatment can provide. The programs last for several weeks and is covered by the vast majority of insurances. Clients finishing the PHP often step down to the IOP.
In addition to these programs, Direction is stepping up efforts to offer other help to families searching for mental health resources in a state which simply does not have enough. Aided by the young folks here who know a lot more about technology than us, we are working to create online content in the form of blogs, e-books, videos, and online parenting groups open to the public.

UPDATED: NOVEMBER 1, 2021
NEW: THE RETURN OF THE PHP
Back by popular demand! Our PHP will operate 5 hours per day rather than the IOP's 3 hours per day, and is designed to offer an even higher level of care to those kids who need it. Target start date is December 1st.
"ODE TO JOE" LEAKED!
October 25th was the 1-year anniversary of Joe's passing, and somehow a private music video recorded two years ago for him has been obtained by staff. It appears to be a companion piece to the popular single "Joe Walsh Ain't Your Friend." You can see it -- and Dr. Gill in a "COVID Cut" -- here.
