Skyway Behavioral Health

<div>Company: Skyway Behavioral Health

Title: Program Manager

FLSA Status: Exempt
Location: Skokie, IL 

Skyway Behavioral Health is an innovative center that goes beyond the treatment of mood, anxiety, and eating disorders to address underlying traumatic stress. Our belief is that maladaptive coping strategies are adopted by patients for survival. While adaptive at one time or in specific ways, these coping strategies are now preventing patients from living the life they want to live and have evolved into psychiatric symptoms and disorders.
At Skyway, we provide a fully immersive, intensive, whole-person experience that covers everything from neuroscience to nutrition. We believe that the path to recovery requires a focus that encompasses not just symptom management but also the treatment of underlying individual, systemic, developmental, and familial trauma. We use cutting-edge, specialized, evidence-based treatment modalities to help our patients address the trauma and pain behind their behaviors and diagnoses &ndash; thereby empowering them to make lasting changes in their lives. 
 
Our team has extensive clinical and leadership experience in the areas of traumatic stress, eating disorders, mood disorders, and personality disorders/pathology. At Skyway, we are committed to building a culture and team that cares for one another such that we may care for our families, communities, and clients. At Skyway, we believe that recovery is not only possible but also attainable for all patients.
