Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a form of treatment for a substance abuse problem that is substantially more involved and comprehensive than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is an essential aspect of recovery for individuals in Metairie who have just finished residential or inpatient rehabilitation, and still require moderate assistance and encouragement while they transition to a sober and productive lifestyle. IOP's consist of therapy which occurs more often than conventional outpatient, where the person will participate in treatment services and activities usually once or twice a week unless otherwise adjudicated.
Intensive outpatient treatment normally consists of group and sometimes individualized counseling meetings to continue to treat the person's addiction. Individual sessions often occur at least once a week, and group sessions can provide the peer support that is vital for long term recovery. In intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on improving relapse prevention skills, managing every day challenges and vulnerabilities, and how to manage any discomforts and drug cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment centers incorporate family and couples/marriage counseling into the treatment process, which can be vital for clients who need to rebuild their lives with their loved ones and family members.
