Outpatient Services
Intensive Outpatient

Outpatient ServicesIntensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is an outpatient treatment program consisting of 24 group sessions taking place three times per week for eight weeks. Patients that are clinically appropriate for this level of care have demonstrated an ability to abstain for several days at a time and withdrawal is not a critical issue.

Patients at this level of care will be offered:

  • Individual Counseling
  • Group Counseling
  • Education
  • Family Program and Counseling
  • 12 Step Meetings
  • Alumni Support and activities
  • Therapeutic Assignments

Patients at this level of care will be working on developing a support system that will assist them in abstaining. Patients will be required to attend support group meetings in the community at least two times per week.

Aftercare

The Aftercare Program is an outpatient treatment program which meets one time per week to offer continued support for clients who have completed a higher level of care but require further support and monitoring. Drug screens are completed monthly (and as needed) to monitor the effectiveness of the program.

Monthly Monitoring

The Monthly Monitoring Program is an outpatient program which meets one time per month in order to provide drug testing and confirmation of attendance for persons who are court-ordered or mandated by an employer to do so.
