About Discovery Mood & Anxiety Program Southport

The IOP program is also available for adults aged 18 years and older. For the treatment of depression, self-harm, bipolar disorder, anxiety, trauma, and reactive attachment disorder, the program uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based approaches in both the individual and group therapeutic settings.
Discovery Mood & Anxiety offers a virtual mental health treatment program for those unable to attend in-person. Participants of the virtual programming receive evidence-based treatments and one-on-one sessions with a therapist.

The virtual program is ideal for those who have commitments close to home or lack adequate transportation.
