Outpatient Programs

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP)

The IOP is designed for patients who need more intensive treatment than traditional out-patient therapy.

The program allows individuals to continue to live at home, go to work or school while continuing with their intensive treatment. Some may begin with an intensive outpatient treatment program, or may be a part of step-down care following inpatient treatment.

Regardless of when someone enters IOP treatment, it can be a valuable part of a person’s recovery journey.

The program aims to strengthen emotional and social functioning while providing the tools to return to healthy daily activities.

Upon admission, there will be an initial assessment performed so that a skilled treatment team consisting of mental healthcare practitioners, treatment professionals, doctors, therapists and nurses can oversee the treatment regimen for each client. They will create an intensive outpatient treatment plan based on the initial assessment and individual needs of the client.
