Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) & Outpatient Therapy (OP)
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is thoughtfully crafted to provide comprehensive support as you embark on the journey toward greater independence. Whether you're transitioning from a higher level of care or beginning your recovery with IOP, our dedicated team will work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs during this critical phase of early recovery.
In our IOP, you will have the opportunity to engage in one-on-one sessions with an individual therapist, participate in dynamic group therapy, and involve your loved ones through family therapy sessions. This holistic approach ensures that you receive the emotional, psychological, and social support necessary to build a strong foundation for long-term recovery. The program typically meets three to four times a week, with each session lasting approximately three hours.
For those seeking a less intensive level of care, our Outpatient Therapy (OP) offers a flexible and supportive option. As the least intensive program we offer, OP is designed to help you maintain accountability and continue building on the progress you've made in recovery. The program includes one to two sessions per week, each lasting about three hours, and serves as an ongoing resource for clients in early recovery and beyond.
At Stepping Stone Treatment Program Center, we understand that recovery is a personal journey, and our programs are designed to meet you where you are. Whether you're just starting out or continuing your progress, we're here to support you every step of the way.
