Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for Structured Addiction Recovery
The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) at Peace Health Care provides a structured, supportive, and clinically guided level of care for individuals seeking recovery from substance use disorder without entering an inpatient rehab facility. Our IOP helps you stabilize, build coping skills, and maintain daily responsibilities while receiving consistent professional support.
We provide a safe, confidential, and compassionate environment designed to help you achieve lasting recovery.
What Is an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?
IOP is a mid-level treatment option for individuals who need more structure than weekly counseling but do not require hospitalization or residential rehab.
Our IOP includes:
- Multiple weekly group therapy sessions
- Individual counseling
- Relapse-prevention training
- Medication-Assisted Treatment support (if appropriate)
- Life-skills development
- Mental health support for co-occurring disorders
- Drug testing and accountability
IOP allows you to live at home, continue working, and maintain family responsibilities while progressing in your recovery.
Who Is IOP For?
IOP may be a good fit if you:
- Are struggling to maintain sobriety on your own
- Have recently completed detox or inpatient rehab
- Experience cravings or high relapse risk
- Need structured support during early recovery
- Have co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD
- Want a flexible treatment option that fits with work or school
Our clinical team will help determine whether IOP is the right level of care for you.
