A Strong Foundation for Lasting Recovery in Riverside County

Sol's Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is the most intensive level of outpatient care we offer for women in Riverside — about 6 hours of structured treatment a day, 5 days a week, in an all-female setting. It's built for women who need significant daily support for substance use and mental health, but not 24-hour supervision. You spend the day in therapy and return home or to supportive housing each evening. Many women come to us after detox or residential care; others start here when day-to-day life has become hard to hold together. Whenever you're ready, call (951) 972-5085 or verify your insurance.

What Is a Partial Hospitalization Program?

PHP is the highest level of outpatient care available. Women spend most of the day in treatment — typically 6 hours a day, 5 days a week — in evidence-based therapy, group work, and holistic practices, then return home or to supportive housing each evening.

In Sol's PHP, substance use and mental health are treated together — not in isolation.

PHP for Substance Use and Mental Health

Women often experience addiction and mental health conditions at the same time. Untreated trauma, anxiety, or depression can fuel substance use, and substance use can deepen mental health symptoms. Our PHP addresses both from the start — in a space built around the pressures and experiences women actually carry.

Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Care

Relapse prevention and practical coping strategies
Individualized addiction counseling
Group therapy with peers who understand women's experiences

Mental Health Care

Support for anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD
Trauma-informed care that addresses underlying root causes
Medication management when clinically appropriate

A Dual-Diagnosis Approach

Our integrated model treats substance use and co-occurring disorders together rather than in isolation — an approach designed to support relapse prevention and steadier, longer-term recovery.

A Day in PHP: What to Expect

Who Is PHP Best For?

You're managing both substance use and mental health concerns.
You need daily structure but also the flexibility of returning home at night.
You want trauma-informed care in a women-only environment where it feels safe to do deeper work.

Comparing Levels of Care

Recovery is a continuum, not a single step. PHP is often the beginning. As stability grows, many women step down to a lighter level — here's how they compare.
