  • Intensive Outpatient Services (IOP) for flexible, ongoing support.
  • Personalized treatment planning based on intake assessment.
  • Therapies aimed at addressing underlying issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, and crisis management.
  • A recovery-focused environment that prioritizes patient well-being and long-term sobriety.

SUN Behavioral aims to empower patients to manage life’s challenges by equipping them with the necessary tools and support structure needed for recovery. They offer specialized programs for a range of conditions, ensuring that treatment is integrated and addresses both the substance use and any co-occurring mental health concerns, such as bipolar disorder, panic attacks, and severe depression.

Commitment to Lasting Recovery

SUN Behavioral Kentucky prides itself on delivering care that goes beyond immediate crisis stabilization. By focusing on fundamental values and a team-based approach, the facility endeavors to inspire enduring changes in their patients’ lives. Their clinicians work diligently to exceed patient needs, ensuring that those who transition into outpatient care maintain the momentum gained during their more intensive treatment phases.
