Olympic Behavioral Health provides stress counseling at 3618 Lantana Road in Lantana, Florida, 12 miles south of West Palm Beach.
Stress is the physical and mental reaction to a demand, and it lasts as long as the demand does. Stress carries no diagnostic code, so admission runs on the diagnosis found at assessment.
Our JCAHO-accredited, DCF-licensed stress clinic admits adults aged 18 to 65 at partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP) and outpatient (OP). Groups run in the morning, so a full working week survives treatment.
Workplace stress management, caregiver stress management and the search for holistic stress management all arrive at this program. Pressure that never lets up is what they share.
Call or text 988 if you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself. That line answers at any hour.

Ongoing Stress, Not One Event
Olympic Behavioral Health treats stress that has turned into depression, generalized anxiety or adjustment disorder. Stress counseling runs at three outpatient levels in Lantana, Florida. The pressure, the sleep and the thinking that keeps it running are worked in the same week.
Demand that never drops keeps the stress response switched on, and chronic stress is the name for months of it. Therapy for stress is the clinical answer.
Ongoing stress has no start date. Olympic Behavioral Health separates that from adjustment disorder, where distress follows one identifiable stressor inside three months.
Stress counseling then treats the diagnosis the assessment establishes, and it works the pressure that built it.

Normal stress ends when its cause ends. Stress that keeps going after the cause is gone is what stress counseling treats. Pick the answer that fits your week.
The curve goes up with the cause, then back down to normal.
This is normal stress. It ends when the cause ends, and you do not need a program for it.
Stress counseling treats thisNothing here is scored, and this widget names no diagnosis. A clinical assessment is what settles which condition a plan treats. In a crisis, call or text 988 at any hour.
The Clinical Threshold
Chronic stress becomes clinical when sleep, concentration and mood stop recovering between demands. Olympic Behavioral Health admits adults aged 18 to 65 after a phone assessment, and nobody needs a prior diagnosis before that call.
The FLHealthCHARTS county dashboard measures poor mental health days rather than stress. That indicator counts poor mental health on 14 or more of the past 30 days. The Florida Department of Health puts Palm Beach County at 13.1 percent in 2022, against 15.0 percent for Florida. Callers to Olympic Behavioral Health describe four patterns:

A phone assessment with Olympic Behavioral Health costs nothing and takes about 30 minutes.
The Shape of a Week

A treatment week gives every client weekly individual therapy of 50 minutes to 1 hour plus daily morning groups on the mental health track. The primary therapist assigned at admission holds that case through every change of level.
Monday to Saturday the groups run 9 AM to 12 PM, and afternoons stay free. Olympic Behavioral Health spends that first month on sleep, concentration and the boundaries a working week keeps breaking. The plan routes into depression treatment or anxiety treatment where the assessment points there. Three things happen inside week one:
Weekly Commitment
Olympic Behavioral Health places each client at the lightest level that will hold the work. Average stay at the two intensive levels runs 30 to 45 days. Treatment here runs in weeks, not years.
| Level of Care | Hours per Week | Schedule | Clinical Content | Admission Profile |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PHP, Partial Hospitalization | 30+ hours | Seven days, 9 AM to 3:30 PM | Daily groups, individual sessions, psychiatric review, family therapy | Already on leave, or unable to work this month |
| IOP, Intensive Outpatient | 9 to 12 hours | Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 12 PM | Morning groups, weekly individual therapy, medication management | Working, and losing ground every month |
| OP, Outpatient Stress Therapy | 4 hours | One 3-hour group each week | Group work, skills practice, relapse prevention | Steady again and protecting the changes |
A morning timetable is what makes the lighter two levels usable by somebody in work. A search for stress rehab or a stress management retreat lands on outpatient care here, because Olympic Behavioral Health holds no residential licence. IOP finishes at noon, which leaves an afternoon shift or a remote workday intact.
Match Stress Management Therapy to the Hours You Can Protect
One call settles the level, the weekly hours and the payable figure. Same-day admission is available when admission criteria are met.
Methods Delivered
Olympic Behavioral Health delivers six methods inside stress counseling, and the stress management therapist assigned at intake sets which one runs first. Pressure responds to changed conditions, and the thinking that accepted it responds to therapy.
CBT works the appraisal step, because a demand read as a threat produces a bigger physical response than the same demand read as a task.
Distress tolerance and emotion regulation, taught as a group, for the irritability an overload leaves behind.
Group runs every morning on the mental health track, and hearing another adult describe the same month beats reassurance.
Weekly one to one sessions with the assigned Olympic Behavioral Health therapist, aimed at the demands that can change.
A group that trains attention on the present moment, which lowers the rumination that keeps a working day running at midnight.
Training on live brainwave readings, offered alongside talking therapy rather than instead of it.
Olympic Behavioral Health rules out a physical cause for the tiredness first, because no stress management program replaces a medical workup.
Five complaints bring adults to this program, and each one has a method behind it. Pick the one that fits and see what the plan would reach for.

Where Stress Becomes a Diagnosis
Olympic Behavioral Health establishes which of four diagnoses sits under the stress at intake. That diagnosis is what the treatment plan and the billing both follow.
Worry that outlasts the deadline producing it, held across most days for six months, meets generalized anxiety disorder.
Flatness that has spread past the demand into everything that once mattered is depression rather than stress alone.
One identifiable stressor, named and dated inside three months, points here instead. A restructure, a diagnosis or a separation qualifies.
Acute stress disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder follow a threat to life rather than ongoing pressure. PTSD treatment is where a trauma history gets assessed.
Adults arriving for therapy for burnout reach the same assessment. Olympic Behavioral Health treats adults aged 18 to 65, and one of these four diagnoses has to be present for an admission.
Insurance and Cost
Stress counseling bills as an outpatient behavioral health benefit under the treated diagnosis. Olympic Behavioral Health is in-network with TRICARE, works with PPO plans on out-of-network benefits, and settles the payable figure before admission rather than after week one.
No insurer reimburses stress as a standalone claim, which is a second reason the assessment establishes a diagnosis first. Work stress therapy and stress management counseling bill identically, because both run under that one benefit. Olympic Behavioral Health accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, UMR, GEHA, Humana and Anthem on out-of-network PPO benefits.
INSURANCES WE ACCEPTTRICARE is the only in-network plan. Every other payer named is accepted on out-of-network PPO benefits. Medicaid and Medicare are not accepted at Olympic Behavioral Health.

Why Olympic Behavioral Health
Olympic Behavioral Health looks for the diagnosis underneath because stress carries no billable code and no treatment protocol of its own. Four in five Olympic Behavioral Health clients are treated for a mental health condition rather than a substance use disorder, so the assessment names the depression, generalized anxiety or adjustment disorder the pressure produced, and the plan follows that name.
The phone assessment establishes what is treatable here, and nobody is admitted before that answer exists.
That timetable exists for adults who cannot stop earning, and it is the constraint this program is built around.
Medication is reviewed on site rather than through an outside referral, and it targets the diagnosis.
Evening alcohol use is asked about directly, because it grows quietly under a long overload.
The primary therapist assigned at intake stays through every step down, so each client explains the demands once.
Where the assessment finds no treatable condition, the admissions call says so rather than booking an intake.
Admissions
Work stress therapy starts with one call to 561-272-0800, answered Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. The clinical director approves every admission, and nobody is asked to resign before calling.
Admissions staff ask how long the pressure has run and what the working week looks like now. A partner can make the inquiry instead.
An Olympic Behavioral Health benefit check returns the payable amount at all three levels of care. It obligates nobody.
Sleep, mood, drinking and hours worked all get recorded. Olympic Behavioral Health settles which level fits the working week on that call.
Paperwork first, then screening for depression, anxiety and substance use. Olympic Behavioral Health names a case manager and a primary therapist that same day.
Same-day admission available, subject to criteria.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about stress counseling at Olympic Behavioral Health, covering the clinical threshold, what therapy is used, causes and the levels of care.
Cognitive behavioral therapy, because it changes the appraisal that turns a demand into a threat. Olympic Behavioral Health pairs CBT with DBT skills, mindfulness training and group work in Lantana, Florida. The combination each client receives follows the assessment rather than a preference stated on the phone.
Once sleep, concentration or mood have stayed damaged for more than two weeks. That is the point where stress has produced something a self-help plan no longer reaches. The Olympic Behavioral Health assessment line in Lantana settles it in about 30 minutes.
Broken sleep, failing concentration, irritability, appetite change and withdrawal from people are the five common signs. Each one is also a symptom of depression and generalized anxiety. The assessment screens for both rather than treating the signs as stress alone.
A demand that outruns the resources available to meet it. Work volume, caregiving, money, illness and conflict are the demands adults name most often at intake. The cause matters clinically, because a demand that will not change needs a different plan from one that will.
A stress response that stays switched on for months because the demand producing it never stops. Chronic stress is not a diagnosis and has no code of its own. Its diagnosable outcomes are depression, generalized anxiety and adjustment disorder, and all three are treated here.
Avoid, alter, accept and adapt. Those four are a self-management framework for handling a demand, not a treatment plan. Clinical stress counseling starts where the four run out, and it targets the depression or anxiety a long overload has produced.
Name 3 things you can see, name 3 sounds you can hear, then move 3 parts of your body. It is a grounding exercise for an acute spike. Olympic Behavioral Health teaches grounding as part of a wider plan at its Lantana campus, never as the plan itself.

Olympic saved my life. I didn’t know who Emma was when I got there and forget thinking I could ever love her, but after 3 months… I know Emma and I love her. Shoutout to all the staff, techs, my therapist Stephanie, SuSu, Bronson, Dom, Kim, Andi, Lee, Kyle, Gina, Jackie and everyone else that played part in me getting back to where I need to be, with my babies. I’ll never forget my time there. 🩷

Truly changed my life. Came from residential program feeling ready to return home but decided to step to Olympic before I made the journey home. Best decision I ever made. It truly strengthened everything I learned and provides an opportunity to put it into practice. If you come with the right mindset and attitude you will truly be grateful. Love all the staff and alumni the support is truly out of this world. Love you and miss you guys!

Olympic saved my life! When I first got there, I was absolutely against it, but Meg and her crew did some things different for me and made the place to fit me so that I would stay. They made me feel welcome and comfortable Which is hard to do! But it’s been amazing success that we had is truly unprecedented. They’re friendly and they know what they’re doing. God bless them!
