When anxiety or depression is interfering with your day-to-day activities, you may need more comprehensive support.

At Compass Health Center, we are experts in treating children, adolescents, young adults, and adults with mood and anxiety symptoms that are impacting their daily functioning. Compass's clinicians use evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, ACT, and ERP, proven to be the gold standard for the treatment of these conditions. Through an in-depth team-based approach to care, the clinical team will determine the best possible treatment path for you. In both PHP and IOP, your schedule will consist of group therapy focused on building skills and strategies to help manage symptoms, as well as individual therapy, sessions with a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner, medication management, and family therapy, if indicated.
When you start PHP/IOP, you will be assigned to a treatment team who will partner with you to identify your specific goals and map out a plan to achieve them. Compass's core treatment focuses on group therapy, as well as individual therapy, family therapy, and psychiatric services. You will be assigned to a treatment team including an individual therapist and a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner. Depending on your age and your individual needs, you might also be assigned to a family therapist, an educational specialist, or another specialist if indicated. Your individualized treatment plan will consider your diagnosis, symptoms, treatment history, family involvement, and community resources. With your input, your team will continuously assess your progress and adjust as needed.
Compass's multidisciplinary treatment team consists of over 450 doctors and masters-level clinicians.
