About Harbor Oaks
Harbor Oaks Hospital provides specialized inpatient psychiatric care for children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. They treat a range of mental health and substance use disorders, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, and dual diagnoses. With 24/7 crisis stabilization and admissions, they offer immediate support for urgent needs. Harbor Oaks stands out as Michigan’s only psychiatric hospital with a sensory-friendly Specialized Inpatient Pediatric Unit (SIPU) designed for children facing both psychiatric and developmental challenges.
The hospital’s approach focuses on personalized, evidence-based care to stabilize symptoms and build long-term coping skills. Treatments include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills training, motivational interviewing, and medication management. Holistic supports like sensory rooms, structured recreation, and family therapy encourage emotional regulation, social development, and lasting recovery.
Patients stay in a safe, structured hospital environment, with shared or private rooms depending on the program and availability. Daily meals accommodate nutritional needs, and amenities include indoor recreation spaces and specialized sensory areas for younger patients. The facility is designed to support healing through structured schedules, therapeutic activities, and a multidisciplinary staff trained in trauma-informed care.
Discharge planning begins early to create strong aftercare plans that support recovery beyond hospitalization. Aftercare typically includes referrals to outpatient therapy, medication management support, and family education to strengthen home environments. Harbor Oaks is committed to helping every patient transition successfully back to daily life with the skills and supports needed for continued progress.
