WHO WE ARE

For over 30 years, Lifeskills has provided customized, evidence-based mental health treatment and is recognized as a national center of clinical excellence. Lifeskills is dually licensed to treat complex psychiatric, substance use, and process addiction disorders for adults and their families. LEVELS OF CARE:

Detox & Subacute Residential:
In this closely structured and supportive therapeutic environment with 24/7 nursing support, we provide a non-traditional residential program with detox services for higher acuity clients as a stepping-stone to a more traditional residential setting. Residential:
In our residential treatment, clients live in fully furnished and professionally staffed townhomes, allowing them to adapt their new coping skills and practice their daily routines during treatment. Outpatient:
Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) and intensive outpatient program (IOP) allow clients to expand their independent living skills while increasing their responsibilities. Transitional Housing:
A FARR Accredited and Level II transitional living community, Osceola House residences allow individuals to step down to semi-independent living while attending our outpatient programming. Family Programming:
When a loved one is suffering from a mental illness or an addiction, family members can find themselves at a loss for direction and overwhelmed with making decisions or finding the right kind of help. We help families find guidance, hope, and peace through a program model that complements recommended ancillary support and provides a comprehensive family recovery program that includes our Family Alliance, Family Weekend (virtual), and Family Therapy components.

August is National Wellness Month, a reminder that you deserve to feel your best.

In the chaos of everyday life, it’s easy to forget about your own needs. But prioritizing your wellbeing isn’t selfish, it’s essential.

This month, give yourself permission to slow down, breathe, and do the things that truly make you feel good. Whether it’s a quiet walk, journaling, or simply saying no when you need to — make space for YOU.

We’re spotlighting how we empower clients through dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), teaching life-changing skills that go far beyond traditional therapy.

✨ We focus on the 4 core DBT skills:

➡️ Mindfulness – Cultivating present-moment awareness without judgment
➡️ Distress tolerance – Learning healthy ways to survive emotional crises
➡️ Emotion regulation – Understanding and managing intense feelings
➡️ Interpersonal effectiveness – Communicating needs and maintaining relationships with clarity and respect

These practical tools support clients in reducing self-injury, boosting emotional resilience, and coping more effectively every day. Discover the impact DBT has on our clients: https://hubs.li/Q03B7YDK0

🧠 Exploring the psychological effects of trauma on mental health 🧠

At some point, nearly everyone experiences a traumatic event — whether it occurs in a single moment or over time. These experiences can leave a lasting impact, and for many, they lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

PTSD is a serious mental health condition marked by anxiety, flashbacks, and emotional distress tied to past trauma. It can affect anyone at any stage of life.

You are not alone — and healing is possible. 💙

🧠 National Schizophrenia Awareness Day 🧠

Schizophrenia is one of the most misunderstood mental health conditions. Schizophrenia is a complex brain disorder that can cause hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and difficulty with emotions. While the exact cause isn’t fully known, it’s believed to involve a mix of genetics, brain chemistry, and environmental factors. With early intervention, personalized treatment plans, therapy, and medication, many individuals can manage their symptoms and live meaningful, connected lives.

💙 Let’s reduce the stigma and increase understanding. Support, not shame, makes all the difference. Learn more about schizophrenia and our treatment options at Lifeskills: https://hubs.li/Q03vd7v40
