Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) Arizona

High quality care in a structured setting

Name(Required)
Terms and Conditions(Required)

Intensive Outpatient Programs are the perfect fit for patients who require additional recovery support but don’t want to disrupt their daily lives. Some people in recovery may not necessarily need the 24/7 safety watch that a residential inpatient treatment entails, but they could benefit from extra support outside of individual counseling. This is where an IOP program can step in and be the solution for individuals seeking recovery without constant medical supervision.

This program works best for those who have completed a higher level of care, either detox or residential, or for those coming from an outpatient level of care and needing more guidance in their recovery. IOP treatment helps patients develop and hone skills necessary for long-term recovery. The treatment establishes long-term support networks and transitions from residential to outpatient settings.

Buena Vista Health and Recovery Centers provide a full continuum of care, including Intensive Outpatient, at our four facilities in Arizona. Our IOP Program offers a structured treatment experience for those who want to maintain their everyday life but need more intensive therapy than traditional counseling. The program provides professional guidance and peer support and is available across many of our campuses.

Here are some questions you should ask yourself to help determine if our Intensive Outpatient Program in Arizona is right for you:

12-Step Program

In a 12-step program, patients can help each other achieve and maintain sobriety from drugs and alcohol.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Patients can become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking with the help of cognitive behavioral therapy. The therapy develops healthy coping mechanisms to approach stressful situations, mental health disorders, and challenges in a healthier way.

Grief Therapy

Like all significant life changes, grief can arise when giving up an addiction. Grief therapy helps patients explore and manage their emotions and learn grief-coping skills.

Group Therapy

Group therapy helps small groups deal with their addiction, build upon their support network, express feelings, and thoughts, and work on problem-solving skills cooperatively.

Individual Counseling

In one-on-one sessions, addicts can focus on sticking to a recovery plan. Individual counseling sessions help patients develop healthy coping skills and break the cycle of abuse.

Trauma-Focused Therapy

Trauma-focused therapy assists addicts in recovery after trauma from violence, abuse, grief, or sexual assault.
