About Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital – Behavioral Health

Inpatient programs are high levels of care. They provide clients with a highly structured and closely monitored environment, which is ideal for those with severe symptoms. Clients reside at the campus for the duration of the program. Services offered may include individual and group counseling, stabilization, education groups, and medication management. Clients also receive comprehensive medical evaluations and can participate in recreational activities.

Clients receive referrals to other programs for continuing care and discharge planning. Some clients may qualify for housing support.

Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital works with many private insurance plans, including Cigna, MultiPlan, Humana, United Behavioral Health, and MultiPlan. Out-of-network benefits may vary, so clients are urged to confirm coverage when considering a treatment plan.

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

intervention iconGroup 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.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Nutrition Therapy

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

I have bruises on my arm where I was manhandled by a male tech nurse. I was banging my head against the waiting room,wall several times & the same man said he would have me arrested if I hurt THE WALL. After a 5+ hr wait ,Dr Sommer refused to admit me. I have been acting out in ways that scare me & I definitely can harm myself w/my recent behavior. #Shame on you there at Fitzgerald Mercy psychiatry & crisis. You do more harm than good these days since Dr Matthias Somner has taken over. This is not my first bad experience there at Fitz.Besides the shooting that happened a few years back where a patient was shot to death by Dr Silverman (one of the psychiatrists)....I will never go there again for help. I have gone to Belmont since this traumatic experience at Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital Crisis Center.

my mother was actually admitted here for between 2-4 weeks after a violent outburst towards me and my family, since I know she hasn't changed a bit and is still violent towards my father, and she claims that one of her doctors at the time said that she has schizophrenia, in addition to being bipolar. So tbh I realize they did nothing, and I heard from a friend how bad it is try Natale in Elwyn
