Intensive outpatient treatment, or "IOP", is a type of recovery from an addiction problem that is substantially more comprehensive and involved than a conventional outpatient program. Intensive outpatient treatment is fundamental activity for clients in Alma Center who have just finished inpatient or residential treatment, and still want moderate support and encouragement while they transition to a sober and wholesome lifestyle. IOP's involve therapy which occurs much more frequently than regular outpatient, where clients will take part in treatment services and activities on a part time basis unless otherwise determined.
Intensive outpatient treatment normally involves group and sometimes individualized counseling sessions to continue to work on the person's addiction. Individual sessions often take place at least once a week, and group sessions will provide the peer support that is essential for long term sobriety. While in intensive outpatient treatment, focus is placed on refining relapse prevention abilities, the management of every day challenges and triggers, and how to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Some intensive outpatient treatment programs incorporate family and couples/marriage counseling into the recovery process, which may be vital for people who must rebuild their lives with their families and loved ones.
