What is an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) are a form of treatment that combines the structure and support of inpatient programs with the flexibility and freedom of outpatient care. IOP at Recovery Ways Idaho is provided by Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselors (LCPC), with over thirty years of combined mental health treatment experience. Our program includes group therapies three days per week for three hours, where patients can learn Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) skills, and life skills and build a supportive community to help cope with life difficulties and facilitate healing. IOP at Recovery Ways Idaho also offers the opportunity for patients to engage in medication management and individual therapies each week, with the option to continue these services following discharge from the IOP program.

What an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) Can Do for Mental Health Disorders

Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) are a structured form of outpatient care that provide more support than standard therapy sessions. These programs are especially helpful for individuals managing mental health conditions, as they offer more frequent and focused treatment. Through individual therapy, group therapy, and other evidence-based approaches, participants gain the tools and support needed to manage symptoms and strengthen their overall well-being.

IOPs also foster a sense of connection and accountability, giving individuals the opportunity to build community while continuing to manage daily responsibilities. This added structure can be an important step toward greater stability and long-term mental wellness.
