Virtual mental health and addiction treatment in Bryn Mawr, PA

Virtual care for Bryn Mawr and the Main Line

For Bryn Mawr and Main Line residents, the hardest step in getting help is now the shortest. You can start treatment today from home, where Kolmac Integrated Behavioral Health delivers mental health and substance use care through a virtual, clinician-led program.

We’ve moved our in-person treatment for Bryn Mawr and the Main Line to our Philadelphia location, just a brief trip for patients to be seen on-site. With Kolmac, you can also get same-day virtual care. Our medication-assisted treatment (MAT) lets you start managing substance use from day one.

Conditions we treat virtually

Kolmac treats a full range of mental health and substance use conditions through telehealth. For adults, that includes:

• Depression
• Anxiety disorders
• PTSD
• Bipolar disorder
• Alcohol use disorder
• Opioid use disorder
• Co-occurring conditions, where mental health and substance use overlap

When someone is managing both a mental health and a substance use condition, we coordinate that care under one clinical team rather than treating each concern separately.

Our virtual program at Kolmac uses the same evidence-based therapies that our on-site patients receive.

Working with licensed clinicians in real time gives you room to raise any concerns and adjust your plan during the session, just as you would in person.

Levels of virtual care available

Kolmac can effectively offer much of its comprehensive care remotely with video conferencing.

We built our virtual treatment programs for people who need more than weekly therapy but don’t require inpatient hospitalization.

Together, you and your care team will decide on the right level of care that matches your personal and clinical needs.

Virtual intensive outpatient program (IOP)

Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) is the core of treatment for many adults, structured enough to create momentum but flexible enough to sustain it. It runs 3 to 4 sessions per week, typically totaling 9 to 12 hours of treatment, with day and evening options that work around your schedule.

How long you stay depends on you. IOP typically runs 10 to 15 weeks, though some continue in outpatient care beyond that.

Virtual outpatient and continuing care

Adults moving down from our higher care levels can stay connected to their clinicians with our virtual outpatient and continuing care programs. Our focus is maintaining your stability and reinforcing the skills you’ve built so early progress holds over the long term.

In-person care at our Philadelphia location

Kolmac offers its partial hospitalization program (PHP), our most intensive daytime program for adults who need close clinical care, in person at our Philadelphia location.

If our virtual assessment points to PHP, our admissions team will walk you through what on-site care involves and help organize the transition.

Adolescent treatment options

Kolmac also provides dedicated adolescent mental health treatment for teens facing:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Trauma
• Mood disorders
• ADHD
• Emotional regulation concerns

We build every treatment plan around the individual in front of us, using proven methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and group therapy, along with direct family involvement.

Our Philadelphia location offers in-person adolescent treatment for families residing in Bryn Mawr and the Main Line. If you’re seeking support for your teen, our admissions team can explain how the program works and talk through whether it suits your family before you commit to anything.

How virtual treatment works

After your first call, we’ll set up an initial evaluation and match you with the level of care that suits you best. Our telehealth options run over secure, HIPAA-compliant video; you can join from home or anywhere you have a private, stable internet connection.

Psychiatric evaluations and medication management with Kolmac can happen over video as well.

For substance use, we offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to help ease your cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Research from organizations like the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration supports telehealth as an effective, clinically sound way to deliver mental health and substance use care.
