At Corner Canyon Health Centers, we have created an safe and supportive inpatient environment that enables individuals to immerse themselves in an atmosphere of healing and recovery. This allows our clients to stop worrying about exposure to negative influences or traumatic situations that may have influenced their lives outside of the center. Our personnel are the finest, well trained and empathetic when it comes to the concerns our clients have, some have been in treatment themselves and understand on a personal level. Respect and care for each individual underlies effective treatment.
Highly structured and personalized for the needs of each individual, our inpatient mental health treatments allow each participant the opportunity to provide input into their own treatment as they meet with their therapist and consult with our medical team about the results of their initial assessments and ongoing treatment needs. We also ask clients for feedback each month about their experience with the program and treatment environment so that we can continually improve the client satisfaction and outcomes.
Inpatient treatment means clients live 24/7 with other clients in a treatment environment. In Corner Canyon’s case a large, comfortable, attractive home. Client and staff eat and socialize together, providing an environment that can feel like a family. They do some forms of treatment off site, like equine therapy and recreational therapy, and families may come in to visit and do therapy with their loved ones if clinically appropriate. Clients participate in various group therapy each day, in addition to individual therapy, family therapy, neurofeedback and sessions with our medical and psychiatric providers.
At Corner Canyon Health Centers, clinical services are provided by licensed therapists, psychiatrists, medical personnel, psychologists, addiction counselors, and other clinical professionals who serve as members of an individual’s treatment team. The treatment team works with the individual and their family to develop a personalized treatment plan in the first week of enrollment, and each week after to guide their process.
A treatment plan works as a guideline for the kinds of care an individual needs for a successful recovery. A multidisciplinary treatment team assures that a variety of professional viewpoints are available to guide the client’s process. In addition, effective team communication ensures that quality care is delivered efficiently and promptly.
Our facilities offer a variety of services that are geared for mental health treatment. These inpatient treatment services include:
Effective communication is one of the most important elements of any mental health treatment method. Corner Canyon utilizes multiple communication therapy methods to give clients the skills they need to begin forming improved and supportive relationships with family, friends, and their community. A few of our methods include relational therapy, family systems thinking, motivational interviewing, and assertive communication.
Recreational therapy often exposes underlying issues which are difficult to identify in traditional therapy. These experiences can help clients recognize repressed emotions, unresolved trauma, unhealthy relationship patterns, or poor coping mechanisms. Recreational activities give clients the opportunity to understand themselves better, improve these skills, and learn new behaviors in a safe and compassionate setting. During their stay at Corner Canyon, clients will have the opportunity to participate in service projects, hiking, massage therapy, art therapy, outdoor activities, yoga, swimming, and more.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) are recent breakthroughs in trauma treatment. Clients work with our trauma-focused specialists to process their traumatic memories and progress towards resolution. EMDR and ART differ from standard PTSD treatments because they not only treat mental wounds, but also transform them into personal empowerment. EMDR consists of eight treatment phases and has been clinically proven to be safe, with no side effects. Corner Canyon utilizes the SGB (Stellate Ganglion Block) shot when appropriate to reduce symptoms of PTSD and enable clients to feel better quickly and engage at a deeper level in the therapy we provide.
Corner Canyon utilizes group therapy to help clients learn from each other and form lasting connections. Issues with an individuals mental health can often create feelings of isolation, denial, shame, and depression. These problems often respond better to group treatment instead of individual therapy, and in fact research supports group therapy as the most effective treatment method, followed by family therapy and then individual therapy. Some of our support groups include psychoeducational, skill development, cognitive-behavioral, and interpersonal process groups.
Equine-assisted psychotherapy incorporates horses into the therapeutic process. People engage in activities such as grooming, feeding, and leading a horse while being supervised by a mental health professional. Goals of this form of therapy including helping people develop skills such as emotional regulation, self-confidence, and responsibility.
A form of psychological treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has been shown to be effective when aiming to treat a wide range of mental health and substance use disorders. Numerous studies show that CBT can improve functioning and quality of life among those living with complex disorders.
DBT helps increase cognitive and emotional regulation by observing triggers and assessing which coping skills to apply in the sequence of events, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
At Corner Canyon Health Centers, our therapists use relational therapy to understand the client’s unique experience in the social or relational context. Together the client and therapist create a new relationship which is strengthening, supportive, and enlivening for the client, in addition to providing intervention which helps to effect change. Within this secure relationship, the client can safely re-experience and then find freedom from the effects of destructive experiences in both the past and present.
