Clarion Psychiatric Center

Clarion Psychiatric Center in Clarion, Pennsylvania is a Joint Commission–accredited psychiatric hospital providing inpatient and outpatient mental health treatment for children, adolescents, teens, and adults. Situated on a 14-acre campus, the facility offers structured care programs designed to support individuals experiencing psychiatric, emotional, and behavioral challenges. Treatment services include inpatient treatment for adults and youth requiring short-term crisis stabilization, as well as outpatient treatment options such as a Partial Hospitalization Program for children and adolescents who need intensive daytime support while returning home in the evenings.

Clinical care is delivered through a multidisciplinary team that provides psychiatric services, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, psychosocial and nursing assessments, and coordinated discharge planning. Patients participate in structured group therapy, family therapy, and therapeutic activities such as music, art, movement, and recreational therapy to strengthen coping skills and emotional regulation. Using a trauma-informed care approach, treatment addresses conditions including anxiety, panic disorder, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, paranoia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), self-injury, and co-occurring mental health and substance-related challenges, helping patients stabilize symptoms and build healthier daily functioning.
