Outpatient Mental Health Treatment That Helps When Weekly Therapy Isn’t Enough.
IOP is an outpatient program of structured, consistent therapy and clinical support for people experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, and PTSD. The program is designed to help stabilize symptoms without requiring hospitalization or stepping away from daily life.
- 9 hours a week of group-based care
- Program lasts ~12 weeks
- Attend group sessions in-person or virtually
Our program is available in person at four locations (Birmingham, Huntsville, Chattanooga, Charlotte) and virtually for eligible patients nationwide.
Who We Help
Our program is designed to provide an intensive treatment for people needing to stabilize symptoms of:
- Anxiety disorders
- Major depressive disorder
- Bipolar disorder and mood instability
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
- Trauma-related conditions
- PTSD
- Other significant mood or anxiety-related challenges
We do not provide treatment for patients experiencing active psychosis, psychiatric emergencies requiring inpatient care, or primary substance use disorders that need addiction treatment. In most cases, Medicare and Medicaid do not cover the services that IOP provides.
Bridging the Gap in Mental Health Treatment
You know you need to take care of your mental health, and you want to, but you can never seem to find the “right time” for treatment. You can’t just drop everything for inpatient psychiatric care. However, you feel that one therapy session a week just isn’t giving you enough support.
We know just how stressful it can be to need a higher level of mental health support, but never finding treatment avenues that don’t involve uprooting your life. We created IOP Services to bridge that gap.
Structured Support That Fits Your Life
More Support Than Weekly Therapy
Our program provides 9 hours of structured therapy each week, offering constant support and skill-building that once-a-week therapy just isn’t equipped for.
Stay Connected to Your Provider
We coordinate your treatment with your current therapist or psychiatrist to help stabilize symptoms while continuing your broader treatment plan. The program lasts around 12 weeks for most people.
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.
