Psychological horror with a girl home from the hospital and seeing things

Trying to remember the title of a 21st century movie where a teenage girl comes home from a hospital (school? institute? asylum? orphage?) and can’t go outside, sees her dead little brother out on the swingset, falls in love with a sheriff’s deputy who doesn’t exist. And no, it’s not The Uninvited. I believe it was written/produced/directed/something by a female formerly-child actress.

does she have agoraphobia, the fear of going out of the house?

I don't remember why she didn't go outside. I think at one point she almost did, to follow the little brother she thought she saw. My memory is a lot better now than it was back then!

Maybe?:

Nope. But I do remember a mother/stepmother character who was responsible for something horrible. Thanks!

Is it “The Lovely Bones”?

No, but I'll definitely look that one up. Thanks!
