(844) 569-1713About Intensive Outpatient (IOP)
Intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) provides structured therapy for several hours a day, a few days a week, while the person continues living at home and often keeps working or attending school. It offers more support than standard outpatient care without requiring a residential stay.
IOP is commonly used as a step down from inpatient, residential, or PHP treatment, or as a starting point for people whose substance use disorder doesn't require 24-hour supervision. Programs typically run 8 to 12 weeks.
