Adult Inpatient Mental Health Care

Adults experiencing a mental health crisis can turn to Cumberland Hall Hospital for sensitive, high-quality care tailored to their needs.

Inpatient Mental Health Facility for Adults

Cumberland Hall offers an inpatient program for adults who need a short hospital stay during a mental health crisis. We use evidence-based therapeutic models to stabilize you and help you get on a path to health and healing. Our program offers individual and family therapy, group therapy, recreational therapy, medication management and more — all in a serene, healing environment.

Cumberland Hall’s adult inpatient program is designed for any person 18 or older who needs stabilization from:

Anxiety or severe social anxiety that severely affects ability to function
Bipolar disorder
Chemical dependency
Major depressive disorder
Schizophrenia
Suicidal or homicidal ideas or actions
Trauma or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Many people have complex mental health needs or more than one mental health challenge at the same time. We can handle even the most challenging cases. Our providers address multiple diagnoses, suicidal thoughts or actions, substance use disorders and aggression.

Our Approach to Behavioral Therapy: CBT and DBT

Our program uses two evidence-based therapeutic models: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Caregivers at Cumberland Hall are extensively trained in both methods.

CBT is a type of psychotherapy. It helps you identify the ways you think, feel and behave. It enables you to use that awareness to improve your thoughts, feelings and behaviors.
DBT focuses on building a life worth living, which looks different for every person. It can help people manage even the most challenging mental health disorders.

During one-on-one sessions and group sessions, our staff use CBT and DBT to help teach you the skills and tools you need to:

Cope with challenging or distressing situations
Establish healthy boundaries with others
Improve interpersonal skills and communication to enhance relationships with others
Improve decision-making skills
Lessen feelings of depression, anxiety and stress
Recognize, accept and manage intense emotions and negative thoughts
Reduce impulsive and self-harming behaviors
Strengthen confidence, self-worth and self-esteem

Your Mental Health Treatment Plan

During your initial assessment, we listen carefully to your medical and behavioral health history. This approach helps us understand your challenges, needs and goals. Then, we design an individualized treatment plan with specific solutions for recovery.

Recreational therapy
Educational sessions on medication adherence, healthy body image, sleep hygiene and other wellness subjects

Medical detoxification when needed

You also have:

Regular meetings with a psychiatrist for medication management
Weekly meeting with your doctors, nurses and therapists to assess progress and update your treatment plan
