Welcome to Evolve Online Virtual Outpatient Treatment Programs
Remote Online Programs For Teens
Meet The Clinical Director of Evolve Virtual Outpatient
“Evolve’s Virtual PHP and IOP operate similarly to Evolve’s other in-person programs, except clients are able to do all groups and therapy sessions in the comfort of their own homes! Our Virtual programs offer many groups including DBT, CBT, Relapse Prevention, Self-Esteem, Creative Writing, Art, Music, and more. In addition to groups, clients receive individual and family therapy weekly with our skilled therapists on a confidential platform. Our therapists and staff are experienced, compassionate providers with a passion for helping teens and families. Psychiatric services are also provided. The virtual program has seen tremendous success in treating clients and families who have a willingness to be open to the process.”

What Are the Benefits of Teen PHP?
Below are some of our PHP’s biggest draws for struggling teens:
- Structured Treatment: A PHP gives teenagers a structured daily routine with therapeutic sessions and activities. The added structure supports the formation of healthy habits and a deeper sense of stability.
- Clinical Support: In PHP, teens have daily access to compassionate clinical professionals, including therapists, psychiatrists, and counselors. This level of support keeps them from feeling alone on the recovery journey.
- Integration with Daily Life: In contrast to inpatient care, PHP clients go back home at the end of the day. Maintaining a home base gives a recovering teen an opportunity to practice the skills they’ve learned from the program in real-life situations, which can gradually build confidence and independence.
- Community and Peer Support: Group therapy and support sessions are key elements of PHP programs. From these daily meetings, teens gain valuable peer support, as well as accountability with others in recovery.
- Personalized Treatment Plans: Evolve’s PHP treatment plans are personalized, which means specific care for your teen’s needs. Our treatment plans are adjustable for specific substance abuse issues, co-occurring disorders, and personal recovery goals.
When Is PHP Necessary for Adolescents?
If a teen is experiencing suicidal ideation, engaging in occasional self-harm that does not require medical attention, or struggling to maintain sobriety. Teens should be largely able to keep themselves safe without significant monitoring on nights and weekends.
Disrupted Daily Life:
If a teen is unable to maintain healthy relationships, or has significant problems when functioning in their family, peer group, and/or community and have increased difficulty maintaining daily responsibilities. If a teen is refusing to go to school or their academic performance is declining due to their mental health, substance use, or behavioral issues.
At PHP, How Often Will My Teen See the Psychiatrist?
Teens at Evolve PHP see their assigned psychiatrist weekly.
Evolve is proud to have full-time board-certified Child & Adolescent psychiatrists who are dedicated to supporting the needs of Evolve clients. Our psychiatrists are active members of the treatment team and participate in regular consultation meetings our therapists and Clinical Director.

Our Clinical Approach
Evolve’s therapeutic approach is evidence-based and behavioral. In our standard clinical model, we provide psychiatry, a strong DBT skills-training component, along with other evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and others. The combination of therapeutic approaches in each treatment plan depends on the adolescent’s specific needs in treatment.
Our therapeutic approaches include:
Family Support
At Evolve Virtual PHP and IOP, all clients participate in weekly family therapy, typically with their parents and/or other familial caregivers. While there are many approaches to family therapy, our therapists typically take a solution-focused, skills-based approach. Since learning effective coping skills is a key part of treatment for teens at Evolve, the clinical teams ensure that parents are learning many of these skills alongside their teens and that the skills are practiced during family therapy sessions. Our therapists also provide psychoeducation and coaching to parents to help them better understand what their teen is going through and how they can help.
At a minimum, you can expect:
- Family Therapy
- Parent Support Group
- Aftercare Planning
- Multi-Family Group (IOP Only)

Understanding the Admissions Process
Take the first step toward restoring balance, harmony, and peace to your family.
Step 1: Understanding Your Situation
When you reach out to us, we listen. We want to understand who you are, what’s going on in your family. A compassionate and skilled Admissions Coordinator will guide you through the process and answer any questions you have about Evolve’s programs. We will also answer questions in relation to payment and insurance coverage. Evolve works with most private insurance companies on an in-network and out-of-network basis. We talk to your insurance provider and advocate for you to maximize your benefits at every level of care.
Step 2: Ensuring Evolve Will Be the Best Fit
The next step is known as the pre-admissions assessment, and our goal is to ensure Evolve is clinically appropriate for your teen. We ask for information such as your teens current symptoms and behaviors, as well as their clinical history. We look at their treatment history and collect any relevant records, such as, hospital records or previous psychological testing.
After we’ve determined the appropriate level of care, we arrange a time and date for admission. We send you the consent forms, a parent questionnaire, and an admissions handbook with specific information about daily routines, your involvement as a family, and other areas like rules and expectations of participants.
Step 3: Welcome to Evolve Virtual Care
Finally, treatment begins. You can rest assured knowing your child has a dedicated team of compassionate, experienced mental health and addiction experts who will work to create an individualized treatment plan that will meet your child’s needs.
We know this is a huge step for you and your family. We understand it won’t be easy. But one thing we’ve learned in all our years working with adolescents: treatment works.
