About NuLife Behavioral Health Indiana

NuLife Behavioral Health Indiana offers comprehensive and personalized outpatient treatment through partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and traditional therapy services. Their evidence-based, holistic, and gender-specific methods treat adults with substance abuse and co-occurring mental health disorders.
The partial hospitalization program (PHP) is the highest level of care offered at NuLife. This outpatient program is an intermediate step between residential treatment and traditional outpatient programs, ideal for those in need of comprehensive substance abuse treatment without the need for full-time medical assistance. Patients attending PHP participate in treatment 5 days per week, 7 hours per day, allowing enough flexibility to still maintain some aspects of their daily lives. NuLife provides a structured daily schedule consisting of life skill groups, stress prevention, emotional management groups, group therapy and activities, and individual or family therapy sessions. Their PHP is ideal for individuals who have recently relapsed after another form of treatment, struggle to maintain sobriety outside of a structured environment, or experience withdrawal symptoms that don’t require 24/7 medical attention.
Their intensive outpatient program (IOP) is a step down from PHP, focusing on maintaining progress and fostering independence. IOP offers more flexibility, allowing individuals to get the care they need without disrupting their daily routines. Patients will have clinical support, educational resources, aftercare services, and a sense of community amongst other patients with similar experiences. Caring and experienced clinicians create personalized treatment plans and monitor progress closely with regular check-ins, which allow treatment plans to be adjusted based on how patients are responding to their tailored program. Patients will have access to 1-on-1 therapy sessions with a licensed therapist in a private setting, and participate in group therapy which focuses on building community and mutual support. Participants typically spend 6-12 weeks in IOP, which may vary based on progress and treatment requirements.
With the knowledge that addiction affects men and women differently, NuLife Behavioral Health offers gender-specific care. Their men’s treatment program offers experiential therapies like yoga and meditation to reduce stress and promote relaxation. Biofeedback therapy helps individuals control the body’s stress response, which can help prevent relapse. Men will also participate in individual, group, and family therapy. Their women’s program offers similar methods, but provides a sense of safety and support among other women who are experiencing similar challenges. Group therapy sessions may focus on underlying issues women often face such as domestic violence, sexual trauma, body image issues, the challenges of motherhood, and low self-esteem. This program also involves strategies that help promote positive coping mechanisms such as biofeedback therapies, and the development of life skills such as problem-solving, financial management, communication, and parenting skills.
NuLife Indiana is a dual-diagnosis facility, offering integrated and comprehensive treatment for men and women struggling with addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), biofeedback, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) are some of the evidence-based therapies that may be incorporated into individual treatment plans, along with many other holistic and experiential methods.
