INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT PROGRAMS
Robust Support for Youth with Acute Needs.
STRUCTURED SUPPORT
IOP clients attend sessions several times a week, usually for several hours each session. These sessions may include individual therapy, group therapy, and skill-building activities.
FLEXIBILITY
IOPs offer flexibility by providing treatment sessions after school. This enables clients to receive the necessary care while minimizing disruptions to their daily lives.
CONTINUUM OF CARE
IOPs serve as a transition step for clients stepping down from inpatient or residential treatment, or as a step-up for those needing more than traditional outpatient therapy.
ABOUT OUR SERVICES
Ryther's Intensive Outpatient Programs are structured treatment programs designed to provide intensive therapy and support for individuals struggling with mental health, substance use, or other behavioral health concerns. Unlike residential or inpatient programs where patients stay overnight, participants in an IOP return home each day after completing their therapy sessions.
