Intensive outpatient treatment, also known as "IOP", is a form of treatment for a substance abuse problem that is substantially more comprehensive and involved than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is a vital aspect of recovery for people in Loretto who have just completed inpatient or residential treatment, and still require adequate assistance and encouragement while they progress to a clean and sober and productive lifestyle. IOP's consist of therapy which occurs more often than conventional outpatient, where the person will participate in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise adjudicated.
Intensive outpatient treatment normally involves group and sometimes individualized counseling meetings to continue to work on the individual's addiction. Individual sessions may occur at least once a week, and group sessions will provide the peer support that is essential for long term recovery. In intensive outpatient treatment, clients work on improving relapse prevention skills, the management of every day stresses and triggers, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Some intensive outpatient rehab centers involve family and couples/marriage counseling into the recovery process, which can be vital for clients who must rebuild their relationships with their families and loved ones.
