What to Expect in an Intensive Outpatient Program

An intensive outpatient program (IOP) is a treatment option for those needing substance use disorder, mental health, or dual diagnosis support. It provides intensive, structured therapeutic services to help individuals work toward long-term recovery.

At Rockland Recovery, our intensive outpatient program offers an individualized approach tailored to suit each client’s needs. During the program, clients will attend therapy and educational sessions designed to teach them valuable skills to manage their recovery. We also strive to arm our clients with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their own treatment.

If you’re interested in our intensive outpatient program in Sharon, Massachusetts, contact us at 855.732.4842 to learn if an IOP is right for you.

Intensive Outpatient Program Expectations

The intensive outpatient program at Rockland Recovery typically lasts 8-10 weeks, although this may vary depending on each individual’s needs. During this program, clients will meet with our team of experienced and qualified professionals for group therapy sessions, educational classes, and individual counseling. Clients will also participate in activities that support their recovery and have access to additional resources such as 12-step meetings or peer support groups.

Clients should expect to attend intensive outpatient program sessions for at least three hours a day and up to five days a week. This intensive approach helps ensure that clients receive the highest level of care possible and allows them to feel more supported in their recovery journey.

It’s important to remember that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to recovery, so intensive outpatient programs may only be for some. However, Rockland Recovery’s intensive outpatient program is an excellent option if you’re looking for a more intensive and supportive recovery environment. Contact us today at 855.732.4842 for more information about our IOP in Sharon, Massachusetts, and how we can best meet your needs.

IOP Expectations: Is IOP Right for You?

Some signs IOP may not be what you need right now include:

  • You’re not ready to make a total commitment to recovery
  • You don’t feel comfortable attending group sessions or talking about your struggles
  • You are unable to take time away from work or other obligations
  • Active substance use
  • Active severe withdrawal symptoms
  • Psychosis uncontrolled by medications
