Intensive Outpatient Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Shishmaref, AK.

Intensive outpatient treatment, also known as "IOP", is a method of treatment for a substance abuse problem that is significantly more involved and comprehensive than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is fundamental action for clients in Shishmaref who have recently completed inpatient or residential rehabilitation, and still want moderate assistance and intervention while they progress to a clean and sober and ethical lifestyle. IOP's involve therapy which occurs more frequently than normal outpatient, where the person will participate in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise determined.

Intensive outpatient treatment typically consists of group and sometimes individualized counseling meetings to continue to work on the person's addiction. Individual sessions may occur at least once a week, and group sessions can add the peer support that is vital for long term sobriety. While in intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on improving relapse prevention abilities, the management of every day stresses and triggers, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and drug cravings. Some intensive outpatient rehab centers incorporate family and couples/marriage counseling into the treatment process, which may be vital for clients who need to rebuild their relationships with their families and loved ones.
