What Is IOP?

Our IOP is an intensive outpatient program that offers a structured therapeutic environment while allowing you to maintain your daily routine, such as work, school, or family obligations. Unlike inpatient programs, IOPs do not require you to stay overnight, but they do provide more comprehensive care than standard outpatient services. This makes our IOP an ideal choice for individuals who have either completed a higher level of care, like inpatient or partial hospitalization, or who need more than traditional outpatient therapy can offer.

Participants in our IOP attend several sessions per week, each lasting a few hours. During these sessions, you will engage in various therapeutic activities tailored to meet your individual recovery needs. The program is designed to help you continue making progress in a supportive setting, while also giving you the space to apply what you learn in real-life situations.

IOP Program

Our IOP program at Compass Center for Wellness is specifically crafted to address the challenges of mental health and substance use disorders. We understand that these issues often intertwine for many people, requiring a multifaceted approach to treatment. Our program includes evidence-based practices, such as:

  • Personalized Therapy: Individual therapy sessions where you can work one-on-one with a therapist to explore the underlying issues that contribute to your condition. We use a variety of scientifically-backed techniques to tailor the therapy to your unique situation.
  • Group Interaction: Group therapy is a core component of our IOP, providing a safe space for you to share your experiences and gain insights from others facing similar challenges. These sessions are led by experienced clinicians and are designed to create mutual support and understanding.
  • Skill Development Workshops: Our program includes educational sessions that focus on developing practical skills for managing stress, avoiding relapse, and improving overall mental well-being. These workshops are an integral part of helping you build a foundation for long-term recovery.
  • Ongoing Medication Support: For those who need it, our medical team is available to manage and adjust any medications as part of your treatment plan. This ensures that your medical needs are met alongside your therapeutic progress.

Building Community in IOP

One of the strengths of our IOP is the sense of community it promotes. Recovery is not something you need to do alone; our program emphasizes the importance of connecting with others who understand what you’re going through. Through group sessions and peer support, you’ll find encouragement and strength from those who share your experiences. Additionally, we encourage involvement in external support networks and family participation, helping to create a robust support system that extends beyond the program itself.

Who Benefits From an Intensive Outpatient Program?

Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) at Compass Center for Wellness is designed for those who need substantial support while maintaining their daily responsibilities. This program is particularly beneficial if you:

  • Are transitioning from a more intensive level of care: If you’ve recently completed inpatient or partial hospitalization treatment, our IOP provides the ongoing support needed to maintain your recovery and gradually reintegrate into everyday life.
  • Require more structure than traditional outpatient therapy: Our IOP offers a higher level of care for those dealing with mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder, as well as substance use disorders. It’s ideal for those who need consistent treatment to stay on track.
  • Struggle with substance use disorders: Whether it’s alcohol, opioids, prescription medicines, or other substances, our IOP helps you manage cravings, avoid triggers, and build a foundation for lasting sobriety.
  • Live with co-occurring mental health disorders: Our program is created to be able to help those facing both addiction and mental health challenges, providing integrated treatment that addresses both issues simultaneously.
  • Need flexibility: Our IOP allows you to attend sessions that fit your schedule, enabling you to balance treatment with work, school, or family obligations.
