About Georgetown Behavioral Health Institute

Georgetown Behavioral Health Institute (GBHI) is a state of the art, 118-bed acute care psychiatric hospital offering comprehensive mental healthcare programs and services currently serving adults. In addition to offering inpatient acute care services, we provide Intensive Outpatient Programs and Partial Hospitalization Programs that can support patients as they discharge or prevent hospitalization. Our hospital provides a safe environment staffed by caring and highly educated professionals where we support an atmosphere and a person-centered treatment program that promotes stabilization and healing. Our staff will work with each patient as an individual, addressing each of his or her unique needs through an integrated approach. Our multidisciplinary treatment team includes physicians, psychiatrists, social workers, nurses, adjunctive therapists, and dieticians. Patients gain skills in the areas of developing healthy boundaries, learning how to appropriately express emotions, using effective communication skills, increasing self-esteem, managing anger, and developing life skills. GBHI will serve as an essential component of a recovery-oriented system of care where individuals can learn to live successfully in recovery with a serious mental illness and where families can gain knowledge, skills and coping mechanisms to support their loved ones and themselves. Our evidence based programs are designed to help individuals live healthy, satisfying and self-directed lives.
