Extended Day Treatment (PHP)
Disclaimer: Referred to as a “PHP program” by some insurance companies
New Growth’s Extended Day Treatment delivers high-level outpatient care with medical oversight, psychiatric support, and daily guidance from a licensed substance abuse counselor.
Extended Day Treatment Support
Some individuals need more than weekly therapy but not full inpatient care. Extended Day Treatment fills that gap with daily structure, clinical oversight, and evidence-based approaches.
This level includes medical supervision, medication management, and access to a licensed substance abuse counselor. It’s ideal for those stepping down from inpatient plans or at risk of relapse due to alcohol or drug use, including alcohol use disorder (ICD-10: F10.20).
“When people arrive here, they’re often overwhelmed or uncertain. We take recovery seriously. By the time they complete treatment, participants have developed the skills and structure needed to continue healing with confidence.”
What We Offer
Individual, group, and family sessions guided by licensed clinical counselors
Psychiatric evaluations and medication management led by expert medical staff
Care for alcohol, opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines, and related substances
Therapy for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorder symptoms
Optional participation in structured recovery groups tailored to your goals
Includes trauma-informed yoga, fitness classes, and animal-assisted therapy
Our Extended Day Treatment in Springfield, MA, is housed in a peaceful 15th-floor setting with river views and natural light. Participants describe the space as spotless, peaceful, and built to restore comfort and clarity.
