About the Vine Unit

Serving an adult population, the Vine Unit combines stabilization for acute symptoms of mood and anxiety disorders with an active, intensive therapy program. Patients in this unit are highly motivated to engage in their treatment, and participate in a full day of group and individual therapy. Patients work with members of their treatment team, including psychiatrists, licensed professional counselors, registered nurses, occupational and expressive therapists and mental health technicians.

The Vine Unit is a quiet, relaxed environment, helping patients work towards the therapeutic goal of gaining new perspectives and mastering new coping skills. Our comprehensive program is impactful. It helps stabilize psychiatric symptoms in a short period of time.

The Vine Unit features an integrated approach, synthesizing elements of evidence-based methods and techniques, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
  • Emotion-Focused Therapy
  • Experiential Therapy

Whether it’s learning ways to regain balance and calm in the face of overwhelming emotions, exploring thought patterns related to depression, or developing assertive communication skills, patients have an opportunity to heal and grow individually and together.

Why VINE?

For many adults, receiving consistent mental health care can unfortunately take a backseat to the demands and responsibilities of work, family and school. As a result, problems that go unaddressed for too long can lead to symptoms which become unmanageable and require hospitalization. We offer treatment that can be initiated and accelerated quickly. Rather than waiting for a follow-up appointment after an initial evaluation, patients can begin actively addressing problems in a sustained manner, learning with and from one another.

Active and intensive therapy program

  • Traditional psychoeducation groups are augmented by active approach focusing on experiences in here-and-now, allowing patients to better integrate and practice coping techniques
