Residential Psychiatric Evaluation and Stabilizing Treatment for Adults

Could you, your loved one or your client benefit from psychiatric evaluation, cognitive work, medication adjustments and compliance support, detoxification, observation or treatment initiation to prepare you for the next level of care?

Williams House at Lindner Center of HOPE, near Cincinnati, Ohio, offers an intimate and stabilizing residential environment for adults, age 18 and older, suffering with co-morbid mental health and addiction issues.

Our renowned multi-disciplinary clinical team uses state-of-the science technology, evidence-based treatment modalities and clinical expertise to stabilize and evaluate patients and make recommendations for the next identified level of care.

Similar to the way inpatient is like the emergency room for mental health, Williams House is like the skilled nursing facility, working to restore stability and rebuild the patient’s resilience, independence, and motivation. Williams House provides a balance of the safety that a patient needs to maintain this level of care while providing the opportunities and skills one needs to regain their independence.

Three main programs are managed by a highly skilled, onsite clinical team that assesses, observes and evaluates patients in individual therapy, group therapy and other daily activities.

10-day Stabilizing Evaluation (mood stabilization, emotional regulation and medication management)
10-day Detox and Evaluation
Add-on Neuropsychological Testing and/or Treatment Initiation

Disorders

Anxiety Disorders

Williams House Is Ideal Setting for Lingering Psychosis

Lindner Center of HOPE’s adult residential services are designed to meet patients where they are in their treatment journey. One unique residential treatment track at Lindner Center of HOPE acknowledges a more sub-acute patient. Complex mental illness and co-occurring mental illness and substance use disorder can cycle into a break that may surface in acute psychosis. After the crisis is stabilized and more treatment is needed in a supportive environment, patients and families are often left with a gap in next-step treatment placement. Lindner Center of HOPE’s Williams House can fill this gap.

Lindner Center of HOPE’s Williams House unit offers stabilizing evaluations and therapeutic offerings in a safe and supportive residential setting for patients who are:

Recovering from their first psychotic break
Still coming out of psychotic illness/delusions or manic episode
In need of further medication management
At higher risk of self-harm; struggling with urges or chronic thoughts of self-harm
Emotionally dysregulated and exhibiting disruptive behavior
Challenged to participate in groups
Not currently responding to treatment
No longer meeting acute inpatient criteria
Not ready to return to work, school or other day-to-day

*Patients should be medically stable and non-violent.

For these patients, Williams House offers a residential setting and treatment team focused on further stabilization and evaluation for next steps. Groups for this residential population focus on enriched life skills, coping skills, interpersonal skills and positive psychology. The cognitive group skills are then more fully developed through application in experiential groups.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps patients change their relationship with pain. The higher acuity of patients is often directly connected to significant emotional pain. ACT works through skills to help patients to become more psychologically flexible.

Adults at Williams House work on:

Behavior plans
Group attendance
Motivation
Stabilizing current psychotic symptoms
Engaging in goal-directed or mindful activities
Increasing readiness for potential testing

Patient participation and progress in groups contributes valuable information to the evaluation and next step recommendations completed by the multi-disciplinary treatment team.

If needed, patient can be stepped up to acute inpatient care on campus.

Next Steps Guidance

So much more than a discharge summary, the stabilizing evaluation report, post a minimum 10 day stay on Williams House, brings together comprehensive insights from the patient’s treatment team and support staff. This comprehensive insight gathered during a patient’s stay provides you with a deep and wide explanation of optimal next step recommendations with their unique strengths and opportunities in mind. These recommendations outline treatment targets, influenced by the patient’s own key resiliency factors.
