"Serenity House represents Sovereign's ongoing commitment to provide innovative and compassionate treatment," says Dr. Mele. "We recognize that the decision to seek healing and recovery, especially from trauma, is not always an easy one. Our hope is that Serenity House will ease our clients' transition into treatment and prepare them for the full array of psychological and neurobiological services in our treatment program. As Chief Clinical Officer, I am proud of the work done by the leadership of Sovereign Health of Chandler and pleased to present Serenity House as their latest achievement."

Serenity House, a new component of Sovereign Health of Chandler's trauma program, is designed to facilitate patients' transition to recovery. Serenity House provides new patients with an emotional soft landing as they take their first steps toward healing. While in Serenity House, patients learn self-calming techniques and undergo comprehensive diagnostic assessments in a soothing and intimate community. Following the Serenity House phase of treatment, patients are then better prepared to enter the next phase of treatment in Sovereign Health of Chandler's trauma program.

Sovereign Health of Chandler is unique in that it provides comprehensive care for dual diagnosis and mental health patients in a women-only setting – a fact that sets it apart from the majority of trauma treatment centers that treat both men and women. The trauma program offers patients customized treatment plans, encompassing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), neurofeedback and individual and group sessions. Patients will also participate in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a psychotherapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. In addition, the trauma program offers residential treatment, partial hospitalization and an intensive outpatient program, as well as a variety of counseling services, including trauma-focused therapy, family therapy, mindfulness and meditation, and trauma-informed substance abuse treatment.
