Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a type of treatment for an addiction problem that is significantly more involved and comprehensive than a normal outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is a vital activity for clients in Mount Pocono who have just finished residential or inpatient rehab, and still need adequate assistance and encouragement while they transition to a sober and productive lifestyle. IOP's consist of therapy which occurs much more often than normal outpatient, where clients will take part in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise adjudicated.
Intensive outpatient treatment typically consists of individual and group counseling and therapy meetings to continue to treat the individual's addiction. Individual sessions often take place at least once a week, and group sessions will add the peer support that is essential for long term recovery. In intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on building relapse prevention skills, managing every day challenges and vulnerabilities, and how to manage any discomforts and drug cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment centers involve family and couples/marriage counseling into the recovery process, which can be essential for people who must rebuild their lives with their loved ones and family members.
