Intensive outpatient program (IOP)
Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) provides treatment to patients who are experiencing symptoms that need greater intervention than individual therapy alone. Often, this program is used as a step up from traditional therapy or a step down from a higher level of care such as with a partial hospitalization program.
Patients enrolled in IOP are typically required to attend group therapy for three hours a day, three days per week. Sessions include cognitive behavioral therapy, stress reductions skills training and other coping skills and methods to achieve personal goals.
Partial hospitalization program (PHP)
Our partial hospitalization program (PHP) offers a higher level of outpatient care and guided support. It is ideal for those who are at risk for psychiatric hospitalization or for those who have recently been hospitalized and need continued daily access to safe, structured treatment and services.
PHP requires patients to attend group therapy for six hours a day, five days per week. All participants will learn recovery and coping skills through cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma informed therapies, psychoeducation and other skills training. Throughout this program, patients are monitored by a team of doctors, nurses and therapists while undergoing treatment.
