Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a form of rehabilitation for an addiction problem that is considerably more comprehensive and involved than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is fundamental aspect of recovery for people in Erie who have recently completed inpatient or residential rehab, and still want moderate support and encouragement while they transition to a drug free and ethical way of living. IOP's consist of treatment which takes place much more frequently than standard outpatient, where the person will participate in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise determined.
Intensive outpatient treatment normally consists of group and sometimes individualized counseling and therapy meetings to continue to help address the individual's addiction. Individual sessions may take place at least once a week, and group sessions can provide the peer support that is essential for long term recovery. While in intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on building relapse prevention skills, the management of every day stresses and triggers, and how to manage any discomforts and drug cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment centers include family and couples/marriage counseling into the treatment process, which can be vital for clients who must rebuild their relationships with their families and loved ones.
