Geriatric psychiatry
We are proud to host an inpatient senior behavioral health program in Aventura, Florida, at Sunrise Palms for Seniors. Our spacious 12-bed unit is located in its own discreet wing to ensure privacy, confidentiality and comfort.

Behavioral Health Mindfulness Programs (BHMPs)
Mindfulness is a psychological state of awareness. It's important to your mental health because mindfulness helps you gain awareness of your own thoughts, feelings, behaviors and bodily sensations. By helping you develop mindfulness, we can teach you to identify your triggers and develop effective coping skills to manage your symptoms.
Our BHMPs use an evidenced-based, multidisciplinary approach to help support this behavioral change and your lasting recovery from mental health conditions and addiction.
The BHMPs are offered in three "tracks," which run three days a week. The specific times for each of the tracks are as follows:
- Blue track: Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9:30am to 1:00pm
- Green track: Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 10:30am to 2:00pm
- Yellow track: Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 10:30am to 2:00pm

Sunrise Palms provides a beautiful and unique treatment setting for anyone experiencing mood, anxiety, addiction or mental health disorders. To ensure you get all the care you need, your treatment will address issues related to psychiatric symptoms as well as addiction issues.
Our program incorporates the following components:

- Family therapy
- Individual counseling
