Inpatient Services

At the Parivartan Wellness Retreat we assign a Primary Counselor who plans and executes an individualized recovery plan with inputs from the team that meets daily. Moreover, the therapy team has weekly strategy meetings where each case is discussed in depth to evolve individual strategies based on the individual's unique requirements. Thus, the collective knowledge, skill and experience of the entire team are sourced to benefit each client, while each patient gets individual attention.
