Intensive Outpatient Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Sawyer, MI.

Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a method of treatment for a substance abuse problem that is substantially more involved and comprehensive than a standard outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is an essential aspect of recovery for people in Sawyer who have recently completed inpatient or residential rehab, and still want moderate support and encouragement while they transition to a drug free and productive way of living. IOP's involve treatment which takes place much more often than standard outpatient, where the person will take part in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise determined.

Intensive outpatient treatment normally involves group and sometimes individualized counseling meetings to continue to treat the person's addiction. Individual sessions will take place at least once a week, and group sessions can add the peer support that is essential for long term recovery. In intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on building relapse prevention abilities, managing every day stresses and vulnerabilities, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and drug cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment programs incorporate family and couples/marriage counseling into the recovery process, which may be vital for people who need to rebuild their lives with their families and loved ones.
