Peninsula Outpatient Centers include the Peninsula Lighthouse and freestanding facilities in Knox, Blount, Sevier and Loudon Counties. The philosophy of treatment is based on the premise that quality of life for the seriously and persistently mentally ill is enhanced through a less restrictive, community-based alternative to inpatient treatment.

About Peninsula Lighthouse
At Peninsula, we understand everyone is unique. One person’s illness isn’t treated like another’s. And while some of our patients require inpatient hospitalization, others respond well to the flexibility of our outpatient treatment programs.
Peninsula Lighthouse is the largest of our outpatient treatment centers. The Lighthouse offers a variety of mental health and alcohol/drug programs for children, adolescents and adults.
We believe this less restrictive, community-based approach to treatment improves the quality of life for our patients and gives them something very important – hope.
- Intensive Outpatient Program
Peninsula Lighthouse’s Intensive Outpatient Program is a five-day per-week program that provides a more concentrated level of care than traditional outpatient sessions. Each treatment day is three to four hours in duration and provides group therapy and educational sessions. Physician sessions are scheduled upon admission and as deemed necessary by the treatment team.
