Psychiatric Pathway Behavioral Health Adolescent Partial Hospital & Intensive Outpatient Program
Psychiatric Pathway Behavioral Health Adolescent Partial Hospital & Intensive Outpatient Program
At Pathway Behavioral Health, we help adolescents and their families who are experiencing worsening mental health symptoms. Our program provides adolescents and their families with valuable skills to manage emotions, successfully navigate a mental health crisis, and improve family relationships.
Pathway is a group-based therapeutic treatment program where teens learn skills with their peers from 10 am – 3 pm Monday through Friday. Teens in our program will also meet with an individual therapist and a psychiatrist each week. Our program believes parents and caregivers are an essential component to a teen’s recovery. For this reason, parents attend family therapy and a multi-family group with their teen each week.

Pathway can be an alternative to an inpatient hospitalization or a step-down for teens who were recently hospitalized. Our team of master’s level therapists, social workers, and psychiatrists provide a more intensive treatment than is available with an outpatient provider. Our program is considered a partial hospital and intensive outpatient level of care, meaning teens will attend treatment from 9 hours per week to over 20 hours per week, depending on the severity of their symptoms. Our treatment program runs from 10 am – 3 pm Monday through Friday, so teens can practice the skills they learned in the program at home in the evenings and on weekends.
Our program accepts most commercial insurance plans and the Oregon Health Plan.
At the initial visit, patients and their guardians will complete an evaluation with a therapist. This evaluation will help determine if the Pathway program is appropriate and if so, how many days per week they will attend. Patients can start treatment that day and often start off attending daily Monday through Friday. As their symptoms improve, patients will start attending less days per week and will return to school on the days they are not in treatment. Patients are typically in our program for approximately 5 weeks total, depending on symptom improvement.
