Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program

What is Virtual IOP?

Intensive Outpatient is the level of care most adults begin with, and the level most clients step down to after PHP. Our Virtual IOP delivers nine to fifteen hours of clinical programming each week in three-hour blocks, over a secure video platform. You get the structure and accountability of a real treatment program while continuing to work, attend school, or care for your family.

Because IOP takes place in the middle of your real life, it is also where recovery skills get tested and strengthened. Your therapist and group are there several times a week to help you work through what actually happened, not what might.

Who Virtual IOP is for

• Adults with substance use disorders who need more than weekly therapy but do not require daily programming
• Adults living with depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder or other mental health conditions that need structured support
• Adults with co-occurring conditions who want integrated care from one team
• Clients stepping down from Virtual PHP, residential treatment or detox
• Working professionals and parents who need evening programming
