When to Refer

Admission to inpatient psychiatric treatment is clinically indicated when patients are experiencing acute or chronic conditions not amenable to traditional outpatient treatment. Our services are designed to provide another option along a continuum of care. Similarly, a referral to an intensive marriage program is clinically indicated when acute and/or chronically distressed couples show minimal improvement in weekly outpatient treatment.

  • Clinical Descriptors Include: ongoing, unresolved conflict, stonewalling, avoidance, escalation, belittling, resentment, embittered, hostile attitudes and acting out behaviors.
  • Infidelity Recovery.
  • Brink of Divorce.
  • Treatment Resistance.
  • The motivation change for change is present but the window of opportunity is small. 
  • Couple needs a jump start.
  • Developmental or life transition crises.

If any or all of the above descriptors apply to your clients, please contact us directly. You may contact us directly to discuss further, by calling (417) 335-5882 or by filling out our brief contact form for one of our therapists to contact you directly.

**Should you need a Release of Information form and do not already have one, please let us know on the contact form and we will send one to you.
