Intensive Outpatient Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - St. Joseph, MI.

Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a form of treatment for a substance abuse problem that is considerably more comprehensive and involved than a conventional outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is fundamental activity for individuals in St. Joseph who have recently finished residential or inpatient rehab, and still require adequate assistance and encouragement while they progress to a drug free and ethical lifestyle. IOP's involve therapy which occurs much more frequently than normal outpatient, where the person will participate in treatment services and activities usually once or twice a week unless otherwise determined.

Intensive outpatient treatment usually involves group and sometimes individualized counseling and therapy sessions to continue to work on the person's addiction. Individual sessions may take place at least once a week, and group sessions can add the peer support that is essential for long term recovery. While in intensive outpatient treatment, clients work on improving relapse prevention abilities, managing every day stresses and vulnerabilities, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment programs offer family and couples/marriage counseling into the recovery process, which can be vital for clients who need to repair their lives with their families and loved ones.
