Our Continuum of Care
Residential Treatment
In this closely structured and supportive therapeutic environment with 24/7 nursing support, we provide a non-traditional residential program for clients with complex psychiatric and co-occurring disorders or specific health-related medical complications.
Residential treatment provides a safe environment for clients to adapt, develop new coping skills, and practice daily routines while participating in the therapeutic process. This level of support helps clients build the foundation needed to successfully transition back to their homes, family lives, and careers.
Partial Hospitalization Program
Our PHP and IOP programs allow clients to expand their independent living skills while increasing their responsibilities. We welcome direct community members into care with many residential clients stepping into outpatient programs for a smoother transition back home.
Transitional Living
Our Osceola Village transitional living community and Orlando residences allow individuals to step down to semi-independent living while attending outpatient programming.
Intensive Outpatient Program
We connect the Lifeskills communities to our alumni, serve and guide our alumni and their families, and cultivate strong communities that can continue their recovery journeys together.
What Our Alumni Are Saying
Our clients trust us to help them on their mental health and substance use disorder recovery journeys. And after reading and hearing about their experiences at Lifeskills, we hope you’ll trust us as well.
