Is outpatient treatment right for you?
Outpatient treatment is designed for those who have completed a higher level of care like a residential treatment program or for those who are medically stable and able to pursue recovery without around-the-clock supervision. It is ideal for anyone who must continue to work, attend school, or care for children or parents at home.
What is intensive outpatient treatment (IOP)?
Intensive Outpatient Treatment is a level of care designated for persons who require a higher level of care than traditional outpatient treatment, specifically those who need close monitoring and support several times a week, anywhere from 9 to 19 hours, depending on client need and availability.
What if I am suffering from acute withdrawal symptoms?
For those with severe symptoms of addiction, medical detox may be necessary to safely taper off drugs and alcohol. Quitting “cold turkey” or without medical supervision is dangerous and can lead to serious health issues or even death. Detox is just the first part of addiction treatment. For successful and lasting recovery, our experience shows that addicts need to treat the underlying causes and conditions of the disease. Outpatient or intensive outpatient treatment can be an effective next step in the process of getting clean and sober.
What is the I-ADARP Outpatient Treatment Program?
At I-ADARP, clients will learn effective self-management and coping strategies to deal with the stress and setbacks of life and get connected with other individuals in recovery. Our team of experienced professionals will teach clients the necessary tools to identify the triggers and fight the urges that could lead to relapse.
I-ADARP’s outpatient treatment program is tailored to the specific needs of the individual client. All clients will be assigned a case manager and receive a comprehensive intake assessment in order to develop their personalized treatment plan. Our goal is to meet clients where they are and provide them with the services and support that they need to achieve their individual treatment goals.
Our services include the following:
Individual Counseling sessions with a registered or certified counselor focus on the underlying issues related to substance use and are used to map out a plan to achieve the goals outlined in the client’s individualized treatment plan.
Group Counseling sessions are facilitated by a registered or certified counselor and encourage active discussion among clients in conversations focused on personal, family, job, school and other life challenges and their relationship to substance use.
Family Therapy sessions involve clients and their family members. Our qualified facilitators use evidence-based techniques and approaches to address and improve the psychosocial impact of substance use and the dynamics of the family unit.
Education Sessions encourage discussion among clients on research-based topics like treatment, recovery, addiction, and associated health consequences.
Collateral Services are sessions between significant persons in the life of the client (i.e., personal, not official or professional relationships with client) and counselors designed to support the client’s recovery and focus on better addressing their treatment needs.
Medication Assisted Therapy (MAT) is an evidence-based tool that may be appropriate for clients who need help alleviating alcohol and opioid-related cravings and withdrawal symptoms. In treating addiction, research has shown that a combination of medications and behavioral counseling is more successful than either intervention alone. Case managers may refer clients to a licensed physician for MAT based on individual needs.
Alcohol/Drug Testing is an important therapeutic tool to monitor client compliance with abstinence in treatment. Frequency is based on the client’s progress and is typically higher during the initial phases of care.
Discharge Planning will help clients identify strategies to avoid triggers that may lead to relapse and develop a plan to establish a positive support network in recovery.
What is the time commitment?
Outpatient treatment lasts a minimum of 90 days, with client participation in treatment activities ranging from 1- 5 days per week, depending on individual needs. Those just beginning outpatient treatment may need daily sessions with a counselor, while those further along in recovery may be successful with part-time sessions once or twice per week.
