Child & Adolescent Services

Inpatient Program

Many children & adolescents suffer from a behavioral health disorder or co-occurring disorders that damages their relationships and duties at home and work. For people with these challenges, their condition may become so severe that they may benefit from intensive, 24-hour care at a behavioral health facility.

Clive Behavioral Health in Des Moines, Iowa, offers a compassionate inpatient program to help children & adolescents with a behavioral health disorder or co-occurring disorders. The program is designed to help them achieve mental stability or long-term stability. Additionally, we offer dual diagnosis treatment for individuals who suffer from co-occurring behavioral health issues.

Patients receive a clinical evaluation at admission. This allows our care providers to help the patient create a personal treatment plan that targets their needs and goals.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) – Day Program

Clive Behavioral Health offers a high quality, evidence-based partial hospitalization day program (PHP) designed specifically for adolescents ages 13-17 who are experiencing a mental health issue. This structured, short-term treatment program can help adolescents work through issues that cause emotional distress, while helping them develop new coping skills to be used at home and at school. In the PHP sessions, participants join in comprehensive group therapy and skill-building activities. Licensed therapists and a registered nurse provide programming, under the direction of a psychiatry team. Participants will also benefit from receiving medication management during their enrollment in the program.

In the program, participants interact with others of similar age to:

  • Benefit from structured therapy and education from licensed professionals
  • Gain mutual support and understanding from others of similar age
  • Increase self-awareness and self-worth skills
  • Develop skills to encourage sustainable and healthy life choices.

The program runs for 4 hours per day, 5 days per week, depending on a participant’s therapy plan. Participants typically attend for 2 – 3 weeks. We accept most commercial insurance, as well as Medicaid, Tri-Care & Medicare.
