Princeton House’s outpatient programs offer intensive treatment four days per week for three-hour sessions for older adults who are suffering from anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders while providing a supportive environment. The structured group setting addresses unique needs and concerns during this stage of life. This approach facilitates camaraderie and helps participants work through shared concerns.
Treatment includes a comprehensive evaluation by a board-certified psychiatrist or advance practice nurse, individual treatment planning, evidence-based treatment in a group therapy model, individual nursing assistance with issues like medication management, family therapy and education, and expressive therapies like art and yoga.
