Partial hospitalization, often shortened to PHP, is the most intensive treatment Leora offers, and the Columbus facility at 5432 N High St runs it every weekday. A PHP day lasts about six hours. You spend most of the day in treatment and sleep in your own bed at night. Nothing about it involves a hospital: Leora has no beds and no overnight care.

Why People Choose PHP in Columbus
Some arrive straight from ambulatory detox in the same building and need daily contact while early recovery settles. Others have been discharged from an inpatient or residential program somewhere else, and a few hours a week would be too steep a drop. For some, intensive outpatient was tried and did not hold. And for some people the assessment finds PHP can stand in for a residential stay, because home at night is safe.
A Day in the Program
Most of each day is therapy group, run by licensed clinicians who draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and, where it fits, 12-step facilitation. One hour goes to relapse prevention, working through your own triggers and what to do when cravings come. Another hour is nurse education. Around those, you have one or two individual appointments with your therapist, case manager, peer support, a nurse or the nurse practitioner.
Mental Health Treatment in the Columbus PHP
PHP here is a mental health program as much as an addiction program. Depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder and PTSD are treated in it, with or without drug or alcohol use alongside. You see the nurse practitioner every week, more often than at the lower levels of care, so medication is reviewed often.
Getting There Five Days a Week
Because PHP runs every weekday, reliable transport to North High Street matters before you start. Leora does not provide transportation, so plan the trip with admissions when you book the assessment.
After PHP in Columbus
When your treatment team agrees you are ready, the step down happens in the same building: intensive outpatient in Columbus, three to five days a week, then outpatient, then the alumni recovery program. How long PHP lasts depends on the goals you set with the team in your first few days.
Starting PHP
Call (614) 665-8878 to book an assessment. It decides whether PHP is the right level or whether another fits better first. Medicaid and all major commercial insurance are accepted, and you can check your coverage before calling. If you would rather be treated in Dayton, the same program runs at 948 Patterson Rd.
