This center treats substance use disorders and mental health conditions. You'll receive individualized care catered to your unique situation and diagnosis, learn practical skills for recovery, and make new connections in a restorative environment.

Situated in Elkridge, Maryland, near Towson, public transit, and nearby hotels, this calming, secure hospital provides urgent and long-term mental health care for children, teens, adults, and older adults. With inpatient, day hospital (PHP), and walk-in psychiatric urgent care, it focuses on comfort and accessibility for families in crisis. Their treatment approach emphasizes crisis stabilization and sustained recovery using evidence-based therapies. Patients engage in group and individual sessions featuring cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and psychoeducation. A multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists, therapists, and nurses works collaboratively to develop personalized care plans that promote symptom management and life skills. In addition to talk therapy and medication management, the center offers electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for those with treatment-resistant depression or psychosis. Specialized inpatient units focused on thought disorders, adolescents, and co-occurring mental health conditions ensure patients receive tailored, focused care. Its Psychiatric Urgent Care also enables same-day evaluations without the need for a referral.
