Intensive Outpatient Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - West St. Paul, MN.

Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a type of rehabilitation for a substance abuse problem that is significantly more involved and comprehensive than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is a vital aspect of recovery for individuals in West St. Paul who have just finished residential or inpatient rehab, and still want moderate support and encouragement while they progress to a drug free and productive lifestyle. IOP's involve therapy which occurs much more often than normal outpatient, where the person will take part in the treatment usually once or twice a week unless otherwise adjudicated.

Intensive outpatient treatment usually involves individual and group counseling and therapy sessions to continue to work on the individual's addiction. Individual sessions often take place at least once a week, and group sessions will add the peer support that is essential for long term recovery. In intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on improving relapse prevention skills, managing every day stresses and triggers, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment centers offer family and couples/marriage counseling into the treatment process, which can be essential for clients who need to repair their relationships with their families and loved ones.
