Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs for Addiction

Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) provide those with mental health or substance abuse needs with less intensive care than a 24-hour inpatient facility or a partial hospitalization program. These programs offer a structured approach, allowing you to live at home and engage in daily responsibilities. They typically consist of standard three-hour treatments on a schedule of three to five days a week, and can be scheduled around work or school commitments during days and evenings.

Our Intensive Outpatient Programs

IOPs provide a higher level of care than standard outpatient programs while offering greater flexibility than PHPs or inpatient programs. They can include a wide range of different treatment options, and our teams will make the optimal suggestions based on what will have the greatest impact and help for each patient.

Our intensive outpatient programs include group therapy combined with other treatments and activities, such as:

  • Supervised medication management: This involves the use of approved medications under medical supervision to manage withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, and stabilize the patient’s physical and mental health.
  • Education: Patients learn about the nature of addiction, its impacts on the brain and body, and strategies for managing triggers and preventing relapse.
  • Training: This component can include stress management, communication skills, and other life skills necessary for maintaining sobriety.
  • Skill building: Techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy help patients develop coping mechanisms and strategies for long-term recovery.
  • Support meetings: Regular group therapy sessions and peer support groups are essential to IOPs, providing mutual encouragement and shared experiences.

LIV literally changed my life. I've been to several PHP and IOP places and they all projected the same energy and I felt like just a number. The staff at LIV seemed to generally care about my well being and getting my life back. I have been free from drugs and alcohol for almost 6 months now...”
