Intensive Mental Health Care That Fits Your Life
When weekly therapy isn't enough, our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides structured group therapy 9 hours a week for approximately 12 weeks that doesn't require hospitalization. Our program is available in person at four locations (Birmingham, Huntsville, Chattanooga, Charlotte) and virtually for eligible patients nationwide.
When Your Symptoms Start to Interfere with Daily Life
Anxiety, depression, and mood instability can start to make relationships, work, and your daily routine harder to manage on your own.
Many people find that weekly therapy doesn’t provide enough support, but they do not require inpatient hospitalization for their symptoms.
An Intensive Outpatient Program provides a level of care designed for this middle stage, allowing you to have consistent treatment of your symptoms while still living in your own home.
Structured Support Without Leaving Your Life Behind
More Support Than Weekly Therapy
Our Intensive Outpatient Treatment Program provides 9 hours of structured therapy each week, offering frequent support and skill-building when once-a-week therapy is no longer enough.
Stay Connected to Your Current Providers
We work alongside your therapist or psychiatrist. IOP typically lasts about 12 weeks and is designed to help stabilize symptoms while supporting your broader treatment plan.
Flexible In-Person and Virtual Options
With local and virtual IOP options, you can receive intensive mental health support to recover and regain stability, while continuing your work, school, and family responsibilities.
