Trauma Treatment Center in Lantana, Florida
Olympic Behavioral Health runs its trauma treatment center at 3618 Lantana Road in Lantana, Florida, 12 miles south of West Palm Beach, and serves Palm Beach County.
Trauma treatment is clinical work on the event itself, not only on the broken sleep, the startle response and the avoidance that followed it.
Our JCAHO-accredited, DCF-licensed outpatient trauma program gives every adult 18 to 65 a trauma assessment, then moves anyone meeting criteria onto a specialized trauma track at PHP, IOP or OP. Six trauma-focused modalities run in-house under a Ph.D. clinical director with more than 20 years in addiction treatment.

Assessment and the Track
What Olympic Behavioral Health’s Trauma Treatment Center Does
The Olympic Behavioral Health trauma treatment center treats the event and the symptoms it left behind, rather than the symptoms alone. Trauma treatment is delivered at partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and outpatient, with average length of stay of 30 to 45 days at the first two levels.
Trauma informed describes staff who understand what trauma does. The Olympic Behavioral Health trauma track treats the trauma itself as a primary condition rather than as context for another diagnosis.
Per the VA National Center for PTSD, about 5 of every 100 US adults has post-traumatic stress disorder in any given year.
A dual license for substance abuse and mental health comes from the Florida Department of Children and Families. Trauma counseling and psychiatry sit in one Lantana building.
These Are Survival Responses, Not Flaws
Five ReactionsFreezing, going blank, flinching, scanning a room. People carry these for years believing they say something about their character. Pick whichever is most familiar.
You could not move or speak, and afterwards it looked like you did nothing.
Nothing here is scored and nothing is a diagnosis. These are recognized trauma responses, and not one of them is a character flaw. Hearing that is usually the first useful thing in trauma work, and it is yours whether or not you ever call. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
When to Get Help
Who Trauma Therapy for Adults Is Built For
Adults aged 18 to 65 enter trauma therapy after a phone assessment and clinical approval. Olympic Behavioral Health requires medical stability for outpatient care, and anyone who needs supervision through the day is referred to a higher level first.
Nobody has to know what to call it before calling. Lifetime prevalence of PTSD among adults in the United States is 6.8 percent, according to the National Institute of Mental Health, on National Comorbidity Survey Replication data collected between 2001 and 2003, and trauma reaches far more people than ever meet those criteria. Anyone who recognizes themselves, or someone they love, in these five signs should call Olympic Behavioral Health:
- ✓Sleep breaks up, or the same nightmares keep returning
- ✓Certain places, dates, or people get quietly avoided
- ✓The startle response fires at ordinary sounds
- ✓Weekly trauma counseling ran already and the gains did not hold
- ✓Drinking or using started doing the work of switching it off
Verify Insurance and Start Trauma Treatment
Free, confidential, and no obligation. A benefit check returns the payable figure at all three levels of care before anyone commits.
What to Expect
The Olympic Behavioral Health Trauma Counseling Week
A trauma recovery program week holds one individual session of 50 minutes to 1 hour, daily groups, and psychiatric review. Olympic Behavioral Health names both a primary therapist and a case manager during intake, and the same therapist carries the case to discharge.
Trauma work does not start with the worst memory. The first sessions build stability, and the processing methods come in once a client can leave a session and drive home steady. Nobody is asked to open everything on day one. Three further components sit inside every trauma plan:
- ✓A trauma assessment at intake, which decides whether the trauma track applies
- ✓DBT skills training, mindfulness, and art therapy on the Olympic Behavioral Health mental health track
- ✓Psychiatric evaluation and medication management from a certified family nurse practitioner
Levels of Care
Trauma IOP, PHP, and Outpatient Step-Down
Olympic Behavioral Health runs three levels of trauma care, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and outpatient. Trauma treatment starts at the intensity a person’s week can carry, and the hours, schedule and fit for each are set out below.
| Level of Care | Hours per Week | Schedule | What the Week Contains | Who It Fits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PHP, Partial Hospitalization | 30+ hours | Seven days. Weekdays 9 AM to 3:30 PM, weekends 10 AM to 1 PM | Daily groups, processing sessions, psychiatry, individual and family therapy | Symptoms that have already stopped the working week |
| IOP, Intensive Outpatient | 9 to 12 hours | Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 12 PM | Morning groups, weekly individual therapy, medication management | A job that continues while the memory work runs |
| OP, Outpatient | 4 hours | One 3-hour group each week | Group work and long-term skills practice | Maintenance after intensive outpatient |
Where drinking or using grew around the memory, trauma and addiction treatment run on one plan through the dual diagnosis treatment track at Olympic Behavioral Health.

Therapies Delivered On Site
Six Trauma-Focused Modalities and the Tuesday Group
Six trauma modalities are delivered on site, and the trauma assessment decides which one leads. Those six are EMDR, Rapid Trauma Resolution, cognitive behavioral therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming and neurofeedback.
EMDR
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing works on the trauma memory using guided eye movement, so the event stops arriving as though it is still happening.
Rapid Trauma Resolution
Rapid Trauma Resolution reaches the same memory without a detailed retelling, which suits anyone who has avoided treatment for fear of reliving it.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT targets the belief the event installed and the behaviour that follows from it. Each client tests the belief against evidence and writes a more accurate one in its place.
Cognitive Processing Therapy
Cognitive processing therapy uses a written account of the event, then examines the conclusions a client drew from it. Olympic Behavioral Health runs cognitive processing therapy on the trauma track as a protocol separate from CBT.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Neuro-Linguistic Programming changes the language and imagery attached to a memory. Olympic Behavioral Health pairs Neuro-Linguistic Programming with EMDR or Rapid Trauma Resolution rather than running it alone.
Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback shows brainwave activity back in real time and trains the arousal response. Olympic Behavioral Health runs neurofeedback alongside the trauma modalities rather than in place of them.
Group Therapy
Trauma group therapy runs on Tuesdays and attendance is voluntary. The room is separated by track, so it matches the diagnosis.
Diagnoses Admitted
Diagnoses That Arrive With Trauma
Four diagnoses arrive alongside trauma, and each has its own admissions route. Those four are post-traumatic stress disorder, childhood trauma in adults, co-occurring substance use disorder, and depression.
PTSD Treatment
Post-traumatic stress disorder is the diagnosis given when symptoms persist and meet criteria. Olympic Behavioral Health runs the trauma track for those clients and keeps a separate page on the diagnosis itself.
Childhood Trauma Therapy
Adults arrive for events that happened decades earlier. Childhood trauma therapy at Olympic Behavioral Health is delivered to adults aged 18 to 65, and the same six modalities apply.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Substance use grows around untreated trauma, and trauma informed addiction treatment works on both at once. Treating one and leaving the other is what produces the return visit.
Depression Treatment
Low mood is diagnosed in its own right when it sits alongside unresolved trauma, rather than being recorded as a symptom of the event. Olympic Behavioral Health treats the depression and the trauma concurrently.
Where worry and avoidance run ahead of the trauma work, a client also enters anxiety treatment on the same plan.
Insurance and Cost
What Trauma Treatment Costs Before Insurance Is Applied
Trauma treatment has no single price. The level of care and the plan set the figure, and Olympic Behavioral Health confirms the payable amount before admission at no charge.
Out-of-network PPO benefits apply to trauma treatment for Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, UMR, GEHA, Humana, and Anthem. The deductible on a plan changes what a family pays, so the Olympic Behavioral Health admissions team gives each caller that number before anything is booked.
INSURANCES WE ACCEPTTRICARE is the only in-network plan. Every other payer named is accepted on out-of-network PPO benefits. Olympic Behavioral Health does not accept Medicaid or Medicare.
Trauma Treatment Insurance Verification
There is no cost, and your information stays confidential. The Olympic Behavioral Health admissions team answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM.

Secure and HIPAA compliant. No Medicaid or Medicare.
Under One Roof
What Olympic Behavioral Health Provides in the Lantana Building
Olympic Behavioral Health provides trauma modalities, psychiatry and trauma specialists inside the Lantana building rather than referring any of them out. Every clinician on the trauma track holds a Trauma Specialist credential and EMDR certification.
Assessed, Not Assumed
A trauma assessment runs on every incoming client rather than on request, so screening decides the track instead of whoever thinks to ask.
Methods That Get Swapped, Not Repeated
EMDR, Rapid Trauma Resolution, cognitive behavioral therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy are all delivered here, so a stalled method is swapped rather than repeated.
Neurofeedback Alongside
Results improve when neurofeedback runs with the trauma work at Olympic Behavioral Health, on the same treatment plan.
A Prescriber for Sleep and Arousal
Psychiatric medication management is provided in-house by a certified family nurse practitioner, with psychiatrist referrals available. Sleep and arousal problems are handled where the trauma work happens.
TRICARE and Veterans Accepted
TRICARE benefits are verified directly with the contractor at no cost. Veterans enter the same outpatient trauma program as every other client.
Continuity Through Every Step Down
Trauma work depends on an established relationship. The assigned therapist stays through each level change rather than passing the case on.
Admissions
Starting a Trauma Treatment Program in One Phone Call
Admission opens with one call and closes with a start date. Olympic Behavioral Health checks benefits before the clinical assessment, so cost is settled first. The call never asks for the event.
The Olympic Behavioral Health admissions team explains how the trauma track works, then answers whatever a family asks about hours, housing, and cost.
The check needs a member ID and date of birth, and returns the payable figure for trauma treatment at each level. Running the check commits nobody to admission.
Psychiatric history, current medication, and daily function are recorded by phone. Lisa Alleva signs off on the admission and fixes the entry level.
Paperwork and a belongings check come first. The trauma assessment follows and decides whether the specialized track applies to this client.
Same-day admission available, subject to criteria.
- ✓Which symptoms are running and for how long
- ✓Free insurance verification
- ✓Current psychiatric medication and the prescriber
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions Adults Ask Olympic Behavioral Health Before Starting
Eight questions about trauma treatment at Olympic Behavioral Health, covering the assessment, the modalities, levels of care and insurance.
Why is trauma therapy so hard?
Trauma therapy is hard because avoidance has been keeping the memory manageable, and treatment reverses that. Olympic Behavioral Health builds stability first and only then starts processing. Two of the six modalities delivered here, EMDR and Rapid Trauma Resolution, work without a detailed retelling of the event.
Do I need trauma therapy?
Trauma therapy is worth an assessment when sleep, avoidance, or the startle response have been shaping decisions for a month or longer. Olympic Behavioral Health runs a trauma assessment with every incoming client, so the answer comes from screening rather than self-diagnosis before calling.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Average length of stay is 30 to 45 days at partial hospitalization and at intensive outpatient, and weekly individual sessions continue through outpatient step-down. Reassessment by the clinical team sets each step down rather than a fixed course.
How long does therapy take for childhood trauma?
Events from early life involve more memories than a single incident does, so processing runs longer. Olympic Behavioral Health delivers childhood trauma therapy to adults only, with no paediatric service.
How much does trauma therapy usually cost?
Cost depends on the plan and the level of care, and the figure is confirmed before admission at no charge. Olympic Behavioral Health is in-network with TRICARE and works with PPO plans on out-of-network benefits. Medicaid and Medicare are not accepted.
Where is the trauma treatment center in Lantana, Florida?
The Olympic Behavioral Health building is at 3618 Lantana Road, Suite 200, Lantana, FL 33462, reached from I-95 at exit 61. Clients travel in from Lake Worth, Boynton Beach, and across Palm Beach County.
What happens in trauma therapy sessions?
Early sessions build coping skills and stability, not disclosure. Trauma group therapy runs on Tuesdays at Olympic Behavioral Health in Lantana, and attendance stays voluntary throughout every level of care.
How do I choose a trauma therapist?
Choose by the method the clinician is certified to deliver, not by the next open appointment. Olympic Behavioral Health matches each client to a trauma specialist certified in the modality their assessment points to, across EMDR, Rapid Trauma Resolution, cognitive processing therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. The clinical director sets that match at admission.
