We believe that children want to overcome their problems, but many don’t know how. Our goal is to work with the child and their family to discover what is preventing them from overcoming obstacles and removing any roadblocks. Ever since Clarity CGC was founded in 1886, our core value has been to treat the children in our care with dignity, respect, and understanding.

Specializing in the treatment of children and adolescents ages 3 to 17, struggling with serious mental, emotional, or behavioral problems.

Our patient population includes children dealing with:

• Poor frustration tolerance
• Emotional dysregulation
• Difficulty with attachment and socialization
• Trauma

The partial hospitalization program (PHP), also known as day treatment, allows children to spend the day receiving care from mental health professionals and then return home during the evening. In PHP, kids who are struggling can get the help they need while minimizing interruptions to their family life.

PHP allows us to observe and understand firsthand the challenges the child is facing. This midground option is also effective for children who have been previously hospitalized and still need close monitoring.

Key facts about PHP:

• Ages: 6 to 17
• The typical stay is 10 to 15 days.
• Treatment is provided by a multi-disciplinary team of child specialists with psychiatry visits several times a week.

Conditions treated by PHP:

• depression and other mood disorders
• anxiety disorders
• separation anxiety
• phobias
• serious coping problems
• other emotional and behavioral problems

ages: 6 to 17

Most health insurance providers pay for partial treatment; however, you may need to demonstrate that outpatient treatment was tried first.

We accept most commercial insurances, TRICARE, Medicaid, and CHIP. We also have alternative methods to fund a child’s treatment. Our financial representatives work with families to find a way to get their children the help they need.
