Women and gender non-conforming residential care
Residential Treatment for Women and Gender Non-Conforming Adults
THIRA Health’s adult residential program provides a live-in therapeutic environment for women and gender non-conforming adults who need around-the-clock structure, daily DBT practice, multidisciplinary care, and distance from the pressures that make stabilization difficult.
Based in Bellevue, THIRA Health serves Seattle and surrounding Puget Sound communities. Admissions can help you find the right program and confirm where care takes place.

A different environment for a different level of need
Residential Care Holds the Hours Between Therapy Sessions Too
Residential treatment may fit when symptoms, safety concerns, or daily instability require more support than PHP or IOP can provide, but the person does not require acute hospital stabilization. The setting creates a consistent therapeutic rhythm across mornings, meals, groups, relationships, rest, and transitions.Topics to discuss with admissions
- Lower levels of care have not provided enough structure
- Daily routines or environments make it difficult to maintain safety and treatment progress
- The client benefits from around-the-clock staff support in a residential setting
- Multiple clinical and whole-person needs require close coordination
- Family or support systems need a clearer transition plan
- A step-down path to PHP or IOP may be useful after stabilization

DBT Skills for Everyday Life
DBT provides a shared language for noticing what is happening, tolerating distress, regulating emotions, and navigating relationships. The exact treatment plan is individualized, and DBT is integrated with the clinical, relational, and whole-person supports appropriate to the program.Community with clear structure
Residential Care Is Built Around Both Support and Participation
Living in a therapeutic setting creates more opportunities to practice skills through routines, relationships, and difficult moments. The experience should feel respectful, purposeful, and connected to life after residential care.A general THIRA Health perspective
