An Intensive Outpatient Program is a flexible, structured program designed for adults who need more support than traditional outpatient therapy but do not require the full-day care of Partial Care or the 24-hour structure of inpatient treatment. At Emerald Wellness, our IOP runs three to four days per week, making it accessible for individuals balancing work, school, or family responsibilities.
This program is ideal for clients experiencing moderate to severe mental health symptoms or co-occurring disorders who require consistent therapeutic support to maintain stability. IOP allows participants to receive targeted, evidence-based care while continuing to live at home and stay engaged with their daily lives and communities.
Our IOP is designed to provide structured, focused care while allowing participants to maintain daily responsibilities. Each week includes a balance of therapy, skills training, and holistic practices that promote recovery and resilience.
This structure allows clients to develop practical coping tools, improve self-awareness, and make meaningful progress in their recovery while balancing work, school, or family life.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Inpatient care provides 24-hour support in a hospital or residential setting, designed for people in crisis or needing constant monitoring. Partial Care (PC) is a full-day outpatient program, offering structured treatment five days a week for those who need more intensive support. Intensive Outpatient Programs offer a middle ground; clients attend therapy 3-4 days per week for three hours a day, but continue living at home and managing work, school, or family responsibilities.
The length of stay depends on each client’s needs and progress. On average, most clients participate in IOP for 6–8 weeks, with regular assessments to ensure they receive the right level of care at every stage of their recovery.
After finishing IOP, many clients step down to a lower level of care, such as the Outpatient Aftercare Program. This gradual transition helps reinforce progress, prevent relapse, and provide ongoing guidance.
At Emerald Wellness, we understand that recovery requires more than just treating symptoms. It’s about supporting the whole person. Our IOP combines evidence-based therapies like CBT and DBT with holistic practices such as mindfulness, art, and yoga to promote mind-body healing. With both day and evening options, flexible scheduling allows clients to stay engaged with work, school, or family. Most importantly, our trauma-trained, compassionate team tailors care to each individual, creating a safe, supportive space where lasting change can happen.
If you’re looking for structured support while maintaining your daily responsibilities, our Intensive Outpatient Program may be the right fit. At Emerald Wellness, we provide flexible day and evening options, evidence-based therapies, and holistic practices to help you build resilience and lasting wellness.
