Therapist/Social Worker- Outpatient Services

Come join our team as a Therapist or Social Worker at Park Royal Hospital! As part of our team, you will benefit from detailed training, ongoing support, and continued opportunities to develop new skills and move forward in your chosen profession. You'll also know that you are playing a vital role in an organization that is providing an essential service.

In our intensive outpatient program, patients can participate in a range of therapeutic interventions, which we tailor to address their treatment needs and goals. We offer group therapy sessions that focus on topics related to mental health concerns, as well as group discussions that can support patients who are struggling with substance use disorders. 

Our intensive outpatient programming serves adults who have a variety of behavioral health concerns, including: 

• Anxiety  
• Depression 
• Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 
• Co-occurring addictions 

Group therapy is one of the main interventions in our intensive outpatient program. At Park Royal Hospital, we believe that participating in group therapy may benefit patients in many ways, including by:  

• Providing time to learn from peers 
• Allowing patients to give and receive support 
• Offering a safe space for a wide range of relevant discussions  

When you participate in group therapy sessions in our IOP, you may explore various topics, such as coping skills, self-esteem, anger management, symptom management, acceptance, and relapse prevention.   

Additionally, group therapy sessions in our IOP can allow you to practice any skills you may have learned during treatment. The group therapy setting can offer a comfortable learning environment where you can receive appropriate and thoughtful feedback from others.  

In our IOP for Adolescents, adults and seniors, we primarily offer process groups and psychoeducational groups. Process groups can provide patients with opportunities to discuss their experiences in treatment and review how they will implement changes in their daily lives. Psychoeducational groups can help patients gather information and learn skills that may help them manage the impacts of behavioral health concerns on their daily functioning.  

When patients participate in our virtual or on-site IOP services, they can also receive individual therapy and benefit from medication management. Our therapists lead individual therapy sessions on an as-needed basis, while our psychiatrist and nursing team provide medication management services for patients who need them. In our IOP, you can meet with a psychiatrist as needed and receive support from our knowledgeable nursing team.
