Partial Hospitalization Program in
Oceanside, California

Focused Trauma Care for Veterans, Military, First Responders & Their Families

At ActivHealing Treatment Center, we recognize that healing from trauma—especially the kind carried by veterans, active-duty service members, first responders, and their families—is rarely a linear journey. You may find yourself in a place where weekly outpatient therapy no longer feels sufficient to address the depth of your symptoms, but committing to a 24/7 residential treatment facility may not be necessary, feasible, or aligned with your current life circumstances.

That’s exactly why we designed our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)—to meet individuals where they are in their recovery process, offering a higher level of support and structure without removing them entirely from their families, communities, or daily lives.

Our PHP provides a comprehensive, trauma-informed treatment experience during the day, allowing you to return home in the evenings to continue practicing new skills in real-world settings. It’s a powerful option for individuals who need more than talk therapy—a healing space that integrates clinical care, nervous system regulation, peer connection, and holistic modalities that promote long-term change.

What Makes Us Unique

At ActivHealing Treatment Center, we don’t offer one-size-fits-all therapy. Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is deliberately different—designed for those who’ve served, protected, or endured trauma, and who now need a structured path to healing that’s both clinically effective and deeply human.

Here’s what sets us apart:

Military and First Responder-Focused

Our program is built with an understanding of the unique experiences and culture of veterans, active-duty personnel, and first responders. From our intake process to clinical approach, we speak your language—offering a space where you don’t need to explain your service to be understood.

Marriage and Family Therapy Model

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Corporation, ActivHealing brings a relational lens to all healing. We work not just with individuals, but with the entire system—including family members, spouses, and loved ones—because trauma doesn’t happen in isolation, and neither does recovery.

Trauma-Informed & Brain-Based

Our clinicians are trained in advanced trauma therapies like Brainspotting and EMDR, targeting the nervous system and brain’s natural healing processes. This allows clients to resolve trauma at its roots—not just manage symptoms.

Whole-Person, Holistic Healing

Healing at ActivHealing goes beyond the clinical. We integrate mind-body techniques, mindfulness, movement, nutrition education, and nervous system regulation—treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

Step-Up & Step-Down Flexibility

Whether you’re transitioning out of residential care or feeling stuck in weekly outpatient therapy, our PHP is built to meet you where you are. We provide a bridge between levels of care with flexible, intensive support that fits real life.

Grounded in Connection, Not Just Compliance

We know healing happens in safe relationships—not just in meeting clinical checkboxes. That’s why our team emphasizes attunement, trust, and cultural humility, especially for those who may have never felt fully seen or supported in therapy before.

Insurance

Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.

I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:

• Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?

• Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?

• Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?

• Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?

Insurance Accepted:

Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) – e.g., ComPsych, Lyra, Spring Health
