About Brook Lane – Frederick Laurel Hall
Brock Lane is a mental health treatment provider for people of all ages in western Maryland. They have several locations. In Frederick, they have an outpatient therapy clinic as well as a special educational school.
Their outpatient clinic is staffed by psychiatrists, licensed social workers and counselors and mental health nurse practitioners. They offer support, guidance and therapy for youth and their families. Brook Lane accepts Medicare, Medicaid and most insurance plans. To get started, you’ll need to call for an assessment. Next, you’ll have an evaluation so that the team can make a treatment plan that suits your needs. It may include individual, group and family therapy and perhaps medication management. If you are looking for addiction counseling, the Frederic outpatient clinic can help. They’ll work with you to offer intervention, help you develop healthy coping skills, heal from past trauma and pain and move forward with hope.
Some previous clients say they had issues with billing. Some people said they were billed repeatedly and even sent to collections. Others have left voicemails that have not been returned. Some reviews name specific therapists that they loved or hated. I do appreciate that the organization has responded to most of the negative feedback and invited them to call or email so they can look into it.
The Laurel Hall School is for students with autism, emotional disabilities, or multiple handicaps. They’ll get structured and customized special education as well as therapy as part of their individual learning plan. Field trips, volunteering and internships are an important part of the curriculum. The goal is to transition students quickly back to their home schools.

Levels of Care
Partial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

Treatment
Mental Health
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
Clinical Services
Group Therapy
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
