Kentucky Partial Hospitalization Programs
At Louisville Recovery Center, our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) provides a highly structured level of care designed to help clients break the cycle of addiction while staying connected to their daily responsibilities. PHP offers the clinical intensity of a hospital setting without requiring overnight stays, giving individuals space to heal, grow, and rebuild their lives in a Christ-centered community.
Our PHP is ideal for those who need more support than traditional outpatient services, whether they are stepping down from detox/residential care or require stabilization, accountability, and daily therapeutic engagement. Clients participate in evidence-based therapy, group work, life-skills training, and faith-driven support that addresses the spiritual, emotional, and physical areas of recovery.

Benefits of Partial Hospitalization Program
Why choose PHP for someone who needs drug or alcohol addiction treatment? There are several reasons why this choice is a good one.
Not Residential
Residential treatment is not suitable for everyone battling addiction. If you are solely responsible for the welfare of children or a relative, an inpatient stay might be nearly impossible. Even if you are unable to finish a residential program, you may still overcome addiction. PHP offers one of the most beneficial advantages in terms of receiving high-quality treatment on an outpatient basis.
Smooth Transition
PHP programs can be used as a bridge between residential care and IOPs. Those wishing for extra support prior to attending an IOP program may choose to spend some time in a PHP first. While residential programs require patients to stay overnight, PHPs maintain a regular routine but allow patients more freedom.
Apply Learned Skills
Residential treatment provides you with a drug- and alcohol-free environment at work and at home, where you can focus on overcoming your addiction. After you have finished treatment, you may return home to an environment that contributed to your addiction. Use this time to practice your relapse prevention, stress management, and communication skills in your regular environment.
Learn About Addiction
The PHP is a fantastic platform for addiction education classes. This program frequently includes some kind of addiction education where doctors, psychologists, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, and chaplains, among others, can all speak about addiction. Every person will present information on addiction using a unique approach.
What is a Partial Hospitalization Program?
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) offers a high level of structured care for individuals who don’t require 24/7 medical supervision but still need intensive support to stabilize, heal, and rebuild their lives. PHP serves as a bridge between inpatient treatment and traditional outpatient services, providing the clinical depth necessary for sustained recovery.
In a PHP, clients engage in full-day therapeutic programming, such as individual counseling, group therapy, life-skills development, and Christ-centered support. This structure allows individuals to practice the tools they’re learning in real time, surrounded by accountability, community, and consistent clinical oversight.
For many, PHP is a critical step in breaking old patterns, strengthening new habits, and creating a strong foundation for long-term transformation. It offers the intensity of a residential program with the freedom to remain connected to family, work, and daily responsibilities.

How Does PHP Work?
Every client entering our Partial Hospitalization Program begins with a comprehensive, clinical intake process led by licensed professionals. This includes a full diagnostic assessment, a review of medical and mental health history, and a thorough evaluation of substance use patterns. We take the time to understand the whole person, not just the symptoms, so we can provide care that leads to real transformation.
Following this assessment, our multidisciplinary team of clinicians, medical providers, and support staff collaborate to design an individualized treatment plan tailored to the client’s specific needs. This plan outlines therapeutic goals, relapse-prevention strategies, and the spiritual and emotional support needed for lasting recovery. Whenever appropriate, families are invited to participate in the planning process to strengthen accountability, connection, and long-term success.
PHP programming typically involves 4–8 hours of treatment per day, five days a week, providing the intensity and structure needed to stabilize and rebuild a healthy foundation. Clients engage in a blend of evidence-based therapy, group sessions, life-skills development, Christ-centered support, and holistic practices that strengthen the body, mind, and spirit.
Because this stage of recovery can be vulnerable, we encourage clients to engage in supportive routines outside of treatment as well. Healthy habits, community involvement, spiritual growth, and positive recreation help reinforce what they’re learning and increase the likelihood of sustainable freedom.

How Long Does it Last?
The length of time someone spends in our Partial Hospitalization Program depends on their individual needs, history, and clinical presentation. Recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, which is why the process begins with a thorough assessment to determine the level of care required and the recommended duration of treatment.
For most clients, PHP typically lasts anywhere from several weeks to several months, allowing enough time to stabilize, build new habits, and establish a strong foundation for long-term recovery. Throughout the program, our team continually evaluates progress and adjusts the treatment plan to ensure each person receives the support they need at every stage of healing.
The goal of PHP is to equip clients to return home each day feeling confident, supported, and empowered to navigate real-world triggers without returning to old patterns. No matter how long someone participates, they leave with practical tools, spiritual support, and evidence-based strategies they can rely on long after treatment has ended.

Substance abuse recovery is a deeply personal, time-intensive process that requires commitment, courage, and ongoing support. At Louisville Recovery Center, we recognize that no two stories are the same, which is why we offer a range of Christ-centered, clinically grounded programs designed to meet individuals exactly where they are.
True recovery involves healing the whole person: body, mind, spirit, and emotions. It’s more than stopping a behavior; it’s rebuilding a life. Early recovery can be one of the most challenging seasons, and having continuous support during this time is vital for lasting success.
Our Partial Hospitalization Program provides a safe, structured community where clients develop healthy coping skills, grow in emotional and spiritual resilience, and begin making decisions that lead to freedom rather than bondage. Surrounded by compassionate professionals, strong community, and evidence-based care, clients learn how to walk out their recovery with confidence and accountability.
If you or someone you love is considering PHP, or needs guidance on which level of care is the right fit, our team is here to help. Hope is available. Healing is possible. And you do not have to walk this journey alone.
