Intensive outpatient treatment, also known as "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 a vital activity for people in Athens who have recently finished residential or inpatient treatment, and still require adequate assistance and intervention while they transition to a drug free and wholesome way of living. IOP's consist of treatment which occurs much more frequently than regular outpatient, where clients will take part in the treatment on a part time basis unless otherwise determined.
Intensive outpatient treatment normally involves group and sometimes individualized counseling and therapy meetings to continue to treat the person's addiction. Individual sessions may occur at least once a week, and group sessions will add the peer support that is vital for long term recovery. In intensive outpatient treatment, clients work on refining relapse prevention skills, the management of every day stresses and triggers, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and drug cravings. Some intensive outpatient rehab centers include family and couples/marriage counseling into the treatment process, which can be beneficial for people who need to repair their lives with their loved ones and family members.
