Millcreek Day Treatment

The Millcreek Day Treatment Program is designed to provide assessment and treatment of emotionally disabled children (6-12) and adolescents (13-21) who could benefit from more intense services than outpatient, but do not require 24 hour inpatient treatment. The emphasis of this structured intensive outpatient treatment is to treet the educational and emotional needs of our students in the least restrictive setting with a goal of reintegration of the child/adolescent back into the community. Treatment combines behavioral and psychodynamic principles and focuses on working with the patient, family, and community to create a thorough understanding of the patient’s illness and provide the tools to reduce/eliminate the need for hospitalization. Educational opportunities are paired with therapy to help patients thrive in the less restrictive environment.     Day Treatment sites include Pontotoc, Batesville, Starkville, and Greenville. Each site has a coverage area that, when paired covers most of North Mississippi. Transportation to and from our facilities is available on routes that canvas each coverage area.
