Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a method of recovery from a substance abuse problem that is significantly more comprehensive and involved than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is a vital aspect of recovery for individuals in Elkwood who have recently completed inpatient or residential treatment, and still want adequate assistance and intervention while they progress to a sober and ethical lifestyle. IOP's involve treatment which occurs much more often than standard outpatient, where the person will participate in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise adjudicated.
Intensive outpatient treatment usually consists of individual and group counseling and therapy sessions to continue to help address the individual's addiction. Individual sessions often occur at least once a week, and group sessions can add the peer support that is often crucial for long term sobriety. In intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on building relapse prevention skills, managing every day challenges 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 beneficial for individuals who must rebuild their relationships with their loved ones and family members.
