Outpatient program

Alliance Family & Community Care’s Intensive Outpatient Program, or IOP, is designed to provide a concentrated, time limited, comprehensive therapeutic environment for the treatment of mental health and substance abuse issues. Our Intensive Outpatient group therapy programs are designed for individuals seeking tools and principles of recovery whether as a step down from an inpatient or partial hospitalization setting, or simply someone needing treatment and support. We develop a unique treatment plan specifically tailored to each patient in the program affording everyone the opportunity to develop coping skills necessary to maintain recovery.

Since we are clinic based, clients have access to a multidisciplinary team of experts that includes psychiatrists, psychologists, registered nurses, master’s-level therapists, and chemical dependency counselors. Patients and their families are also encouraged to consider themselves part of the “treatment team.” Each group meets three hours a day, three days a week, usually for an eight-week period. However, the length of stay depends on a patient’s unique treatment plan.
