Program Overview
At Lifeskills Orlando, we provide personalized and high-quality care for adults (18 years and older) with complex mental health disorders. Our comprehensive whole-person approach, unique setting, and high staff-to-client ratio support individualized attention and real-time interventions, ensuring the best possible outcomes for each client.
We use evidence-based treatment methods tailored to each client’s needs. Our team utilizes our social integration approach, which enables clients to receive real-time therapeutic interventions while experiencing real-life situations. Social integration is used to ensure social and life skills treatment concepts are not only learned but also become accessible tools for clients transitioning back to independent living.
What & How We Treat
We believe that each person can change with the proper support. Our programming is built on a foundation of evidence-based best practices, integrated care, life skills training, and family support, with Clinical Pathways led by doctoral-level or licensed clinicians who create tailored and flexible treatment plans that empower each person to sustain long-term recovery.
In addition, clients participate in life skills groups designed to help facilitate a seamless shift towards independent living. These groups encompass activities such as resume building, interviewing, cooking, menu planning, budgeting, and more.

A Full Continuum of Care
At Lifeskills, we offer several levels of treatment based on where clients are in their recovery. Our levels of care include residential treatment, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient programs, as well as transitional living. Clients move through their treatment program as they progress toward recovery. Our treatment programs include:
- Residential Program (RTC): Providing structure and safety with round-the-clock supervision and care, residential treatment includes a high staff-to-client ratio, 24-hour staffing, and a wide variety of individualized evidence-based therapies, education, and support.
- Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): Designed as a solid bridge for those stepping down from residential care or as a program to prevent hospitalizations, PHP offers clients increased independence to practice learned skills in real-life situations while maintaining structured therapy.
- Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Our IOP was designed to help individuals who are experiencing an increase in distressing symptoms and behaviors or are not progressing with traditional outpatient services. The additional support and treatment foster meaningful improvement and create a solid foundation.
