Ramsey county day treatment services:.
Ramsey County Extended Day Treatment is designed for persons with a serious and persistent mental illness such as major depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or personality disorder. The uniqueness of the model is the combination of an intake and referral group with six levels of group psychotherapy. Additionally, single issue groups provide a concentrated focus on employment or community contribution, anger management, and peer relationships. The result is a well-structured, non-residential program where a client can work in a treatment environment based on one's ability to participate. This article describes the intake and referral group, outlines the six separate programs, and describes the use of occupational therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy throughout the model.
