Programs

Intensive Outpatient (IOP)

For residents stepping down from Day Treatment (PHP), or those who need structured clinical treatment while working or attending school full-time.

A real week

What a week actually looks like

When What's happening
IOP AM track Tuesday–Friday, 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM
IOP PM track Monday–Thursday, 6:00 – 8:30 PM (no PM group on Fridays)
Mondays No morning group. The evening group runs 6:00 – 8:30 PM.
Choose one track Clients commit to either the AM or the PM track, so work, appointments, and transportation can be planned around it
1–2x/week GOP (General Outpatient) — a lighter step-down track for residents further along
Set by assessment Exact frequency and track (IOP vs. GOP) is determined at assessment, not fixed in advance
Step-down path Day Treatment (PHP) five days a week, then IOP, then GOP as a resident progresses
Mondays and Thursdays UA collection, 11:30 AM – 6:30 PM
Daily House accountability structure continues (curfew, drug testing)

What makes it different

Not vague accountability. This, specifically.

  • ◆ Frequency flexes with the resident — from near-daily IOP down to 1–2x/week GOP, based on assessment, not a one-size-fits-all schedule.
  • ◆ Clinical group work stays tied to daily house accountability, not siloed from it.
  • ◆ Gym access at EOS Fitness through our corporate account, for everyone in our treatment programs.
  • ◆ Direct step-up path back into Day Treatment (PHP) if a resident needs more structure.

The specifics

Concrete details

  • ◆ Frequency ranges from up to 5 days/week (IOP) down to 1–2 days/week (GOP), set by assessment.
  • ◆ Clinical staff include LCSW, CMHC, and SUDC-credentialed team members.
  • ◆ Accepts Medicaid (Targeted Adult Medicaid and Adult Expansion, fee-for-service) — that's the only insurance we bill directly today. Call and we'll check whether your specific insurance covers treatment.
