WHAT IS IOP?
Recovery While Continuing Daily Life
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides structured treatment while allowing you to maintain your daily responsibilities. Designed for individuals who need more support than traditional outpatient care but do not require 24/7 care.
IOP includes group therapy, individual counseling, and evidence-based practices to help you build the tools needed for lasting recovery. |

Participation in a group offers support for clients in a variety of ways:
- It offers clients the chance to enhance their communication skills and provides a new resource for socialization. This is especially important in addiction, as individuals’ previous socialization is often with others who use drugs or alcohol.
- It gives participants access to an environment where people in similar situations provide support, comfort, and honest feedback.
- It can reinforce healthful ways of interacting and provide a safe space that is vital to recovery efforts.
- Group members who are farther along in their recovery often offer valuable assistance and empathy to those who are early in the recovery process.
- It provides a forum for therapists and group leaders to pass on important information, teach new skills, and guide clients.
- Groups can be a place to witness more positive behaviors associated with recovery and to practice new modes of dealing with addiction.

THERAPIES USED
EVIDENCE-BASED THERAPIES
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT is based on the idea that thoughts and behaviors—including self-destructive behaviors such as drug abuse—are learned and that people can learn new ways of thinking and behaving. Participants learn the triggers—or people, places, and things that lead them to use drugs—and acquire skills to deal with these triggers. 
Matrix Model
The Matrix Model draws on several other approaches, including CBT, motivational interviewing, and the 12 steps. It is mainly used with people who are addicted to stimulant drugs, such as cocaine and amphetamines. The Matrix Model focuses on establishing a strong counselor-client relationship, teaching clients how to effectively manage their time, practicing relapse prevention techniques, and engaging in community peer support groups. |
Motivational Interviewing
For this approach, the counselor helps a person understand their reluctance to engage in treatment and work through that hesitation. The counselor asks the client to examine how drugs are interfering with their life goals and teaches them to take responsibility for developing healthier behaviors. 
12-Step Facilitation
This approach helps participants to learn the principles of 12-step programs, start to work the steps, and attend 12-step groups in their communities. |
