Psychotic Disorders
Psychotic Disorders Program at The Lodge
The Lodge at Silver Hill treats patients with complex psychotic disorders. One of few such residential programs in the nation, The Lodge is focused on providing exceptional, evidence-based, person-centered, multi-disciplinary treatment.
The program has a proven track record of achieving positive outcomes with patients who experience persistent psychiatric symptoms that have been unresponsive to prior care methods.
Treatment at The Lodge is focused on repairing, reconnecting, and restoring meaning and function in our patients’ lives. This includes the reclamation of identity and self; sense of reality; cognitive ability; family relationships and support; community and social networks; and health and wellness.
