About this facility
Bridgeport Hospital’s REACH Program in Connecticut supports children, teens and adults facing mental health challenges and co-occurring disorders. They offer intensive outpatient care, including medication management, group therapy, and aftercare planning. Their program helps individuals avoid re-hospitalization, providing essential support often after a hospital stay.
The program's group therapies foster coping skills and improve social interactions. They provide specialized services for mood disorders, anxiety, depression, OCD, and substance abuse. Their dedicated staff, which includes doctors and nurses, collaborates with patients in a compassionate setting to help them achieve personal goals.
REACH also supports families with children and adolescents ages 5-17 through weekly parent group sessions, aiming to keep families together and prevent residential placements. Their Bridge2Care program offers crucial medication management for youth and adults transitioning from intensive outpatient programs (IOP). Referrals are welcomed from various healthcare providers, including self and family referrals, and are covered by major insurance plans.
