If you’re struggling with your mental health, or it feels like your mental health disorder symptoms are worsening, then you may need a higher level of care and support. 

A residential treatment center is a mental health treatment option for individuals who need the time and space to focus solely on alleviating their symptoms and work toward a more fulfilling life. If you’re an Anthem Blue Cross member, then Lightfully Behavioral Health can provide you with residential treatment that will help benefit your mental health long after your stay.

Read on to learn about the basics of residential treatment centers and what makes Lightfully’s RTC the best program option for Anthem Blue Cross members.

What is residential treatment?

Residential treatment refers to a mental health care facility that provides individuals with 24/7 behavioral and mental care during extended stays. The goal is to help people struggling with severe mental health disorder symptoms to gain the support and knowledge they need in a home-like environment.

Residential care is an effective treatment option for individuals who have one or more of the following:

• Severe mental health distress or disorder symptoms that interfere with their ability to carry out their daily responsibilities
• Behaviors and thoughts that put them at risk of harming themselves or others
• A mental health crisis that required hospitalization

Lightfully Behavioral Health Residential Treatment for Anthem Blue Cross members

At Lightfully, our Residential Treatment can provide Anthem Blue Cross members with the tools and support they need to alleviate their mental health disorder symptoms in a structured, safe and therapeutic environment.

What makes Lightfully’s RTC different from other providers

If you’re an Anthem Blue Cross member, then Lighfully’s Residential Treatment Center is the best treatment option if you need a place that encourages you to focus completely on your mental health without interference from potential triggers from your daily life.

While every RTC provides extended stays for mental health distress, we stand out from the rest by being one of the only providers to utilize process-based therapy (PBT). This approach means that your residential program treats you as more than your diagnosis. 

PBT is a holistic, personalized approach that treats your entire well-being through integrated interventions that improve the four core processes that are at the basis of every mental health disorder:

• Difficulty with emotions
• Difficulty with thoughts
• Difficulty with behaviors
• Difficulty with relationships
