Community Behavioral Services, Inc. offers short-term, intensive psychotherapy for people experiencing acute symptoms of mental illness. This program is conducted 3 days each week for 3 hours per day during which individual and group therapy is provided. Most participants achieve maximum improvement within 4 to 5 weeks and then step down to less intensive outpatient services. The purpose of IOP is to offer an alternative to hospitalization as well as providing a community-based program for post hospitalization recovery.
The IOP is staffed by licensed mental health professionals as well as a Maryland Board Certified psychiatrist, Robert Schnitzlein, MD. Each client is assessed upon admission and a treatment plan is immediately put into place.
