The Hoag Young Adult Mental Health program is a specialized 8-week program designed to support young adults aged 18-26 in developing essential coping skills for managing their mental health. The program is grounded in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), a highly effective therapeutic approach that equips participants with practical tools to handle life’s challenges and enhance their overall well-being. The group structure fosters a sense of community and peer support, allowing participants to share their experiences and learn from one another in a safe and nurturing environment. The program runs three days per week—Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays—providing a balanced structure for participants to integrate therapy into their daily lives while maintaining other commitments such as work or school.

Led by a team of experts, this accredited treatment program equips young adults ages 18-26 with tools and strategies to effectively cope with mental health challenges. What is DBT? Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that emphasizes the psychosocial aspects of treatment. It was originally developed to treat borderline personality disorder but has since been adapted for various mental health conditions.
