Intensive OutPatient Program (IOP)
Continue Recovery With Intensive Outpatient
You may be ready to move forward in recovery while staying connected to your daily life. An Intensive Outpatient Program, or IOP, gives you structured addiction treatment while allowing you to continue work, school, or family responsibilities. This level of care is often recommended after residential treatment or for those who need consistent support without full-time care.
Through IOP, you receive professional drug and alcohol treatment in Arizona that helps you stay accountable, build stability, and continue healing with guidance and structure.
Participants attend daytime sessions several days a week while maintaining work, school, or family commitments.
Support and Structure as You Heal
IOP provides ongoing support as you build recovery skills and accountability. You attend structured therapy several days a week, focusing on relapse prevention, emotional health, and coping strategies. Care may include group counseling, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and faith-based processing groups.
By addressing addiction and mental health challenges through evidence-based therapy and Christ-centered guidance, you build confidence, deepen clarity, and continue recovery with purpose. Intensive outpatient treatment is available to individuals across Arizona, with care accessible at Mesa and Chandler locations.

What is a Christian Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?
A Christian IOP combines clinical addiction treatment with faith based counseling. It provides structured therapy sessions during the day while allowing participants to live at home, apply recovery skills in daily life, and stay connected to church, work, and family.
How many days a week is IOP treatment?
Most IOP programs meet three to five days per week for several hours each day. This flexible schedule helps individuals maintain responsibilities while receiving consistent therapy and spiritual guidance.
How is IOP different from a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)?
PHP offers more intensive, full-day treatment, while IOP provides shorter sessions several days a week. IOP focuses on applying what’s been learned in earlier stages of recovery, offering flexibility with continued faith-based support and accountability.
How many hours per week is IOP?
Typically, IOP requires 9 to 19 hours of treatment per week, spread across several sessions.
Can IOP work for someone balancing a job or family?
Yes. IOP allows you to live at home, attend therapy sessions, and still care for work, school, or family responsibilities while receiving structured support.
