Intensive Outpatient Program

The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is designed to meet the needs of people who are seeking fast results in a more intensive therapy setting than traditional outpatient therapy. Our program offers a comprehensive assessment and medication evaluation within 24 hours of your first phone call Monday – Friday. People attend our program for an average of 11 sessions, which takes about one month. During this time we see a consistent 22% decline in the intensity of depressive and anxiety symptoms. 

IOP is located on the east side of the hospital at 1887 Kingsley Blvd, Suite 1700 in Medical Office Plaza 4
