Who It’s For

IOP / vIOP Is Right If You Are…

Needing more than weekly therapy

Symptoms are impacting daily life and weekly sessions alone are not providing enough support to stabilize and make progress.

Stepping down from PHP or residential

Transitioning from a higher level of care and needing continued intensive support while reintegrating into daily life.

Stable enough to live at home

You have a safe living environment and do not require 24/7 supervision, but need significantly more structure than outpatient.

Maintaining work or school

Scheduling allows for morning, afternoon, or evening programming while continuing professional or academic responsibilities.

Preferring or requiring virtual care

Location, transportation, or personal preference makes telehealth the right delivery method — same clinical rigor, fully online.

Ready for intensive skill-building

Motivated to engage in multi-day programming that accelerates skill development, emotional regulation, and lasting behavioral change.

In-Person vs Virtual

Same Program. Two Ways to Access It.

Whether you attend in our Los Angeles facility or connect through secure telehealth, the clinical programming, frequency, and intensity are identical. The right choice depends on your preference and circumstances.

Structure & Schedule

What a Typical IOP Week Looks Like

  • Evidence-based group therapy (CBT, DBT, trauma-informed)

  • Weekly individual therapy sessions with your primary clinician

  • Psychoeducation groups covering mental health skills

  • Process groups for emotional expression and peer support

  • Family sessions integrated as clinically appropriate
