Sheppard Pratt Baltimore Washington Campus

About Sheppard Pratt Baltimore Washington Campus

Sheppard Pratt’s Baltimore/Washington Campus in Maryland specializes in the treatment of mental health and behavioral issues, including addiction and substance abuse. Support is available here to kids, teens, and adults of all genders, ethnicities and walks of life. The center accepts Maryland Medicaid and Medicare, as well as many major insurance providers

Most clients are referred to the adult day hospital here if they have completed an inpatient program, or their condition has stabilized. Program and care here is offered on an outpatient basis, with treatment taking place during weekdays between 8am and 3pm, so clients can return to the comfort of their own home at night. Length of care naturally varies depending on the client, but ranges between 3-6 weeks.

Clients can benefit from supportive one-to-one counseling, as well as group therapies using methods like dialectical and cognitive behavior therapies, psychoeducation, as well as recreational therapies and activities for rounded, holistic support. Medication and symptom management are offered as needed, as well as family meetings, and dual-diagnosis support. Treatment planning, and eventual aftercare coordination is also offered to support a sustainable and long-term recovery.

This location also features a secure adolescent inpatient unit with 17 beds designed to accommodate teens aged 12-17 years. The focus here is on crisis stabilization, and most of all, safety. Here, teens receive care for behavioral issues, including substance abuse, in a safe, non-judgmental environment. The facility is monitored 24/7 to offer extra peace of mind to parents and caregivers.

For those in need of less intensive care, a day hospital is also available on this campus specifically designed to offer outpatient clinical services for kids and teens from ages 10-17.
