What is an Intensive Outpatient Program in Orange County?

An intensive outpatient program (IOP) is an ideal next step for individuals who have completed a medical detox and are looking to continue their recovery journey.

IOPs help those struggling with drug and alcohol abuse by providing structured support while allowing patients to live at home.

This approach offers the flexibility needed for individuals to maintain their daily responsibilities such as work and family commitments.

Patients typically engage in therapy sessions several times a week, receiving treatment without the need for overnight stays.

IOP Treatment & Rehab

This combination of structure and freedom can be particularly effective for maintaining long-term sobriety.

Our IOP includes therapy, educational seminars, counseling, and sometimes holistic healing treatments. The exact types of care you receive will vary based on your specific needs and goals.

Who are Intensive Outpatient Programs in Orange County for?

IOPs can be a good option for patients who have been struggling with a wide variety of addictions. For example, the Still Water Wellness Group regularly uses intensive outpatient programs to help people who have been dealing with addictions to:

That being said, these plans are only meant for patients who are at a certain phase of their recovery journey.

For example, you wouldn’t want to start an IOP if you had already completed an inpatient rehab program. Similarly, you shouldn’t begin one of these programs unless you’ve already completed detox.

It is important to mention that the freedom offered by IOPs may not be a good fit for everyone. You wouldn’t want to spend your nights at home if you lived in a place where people regularly use drugs or alcohol.

This type of program may not be a good option for you either if your home life is unstable or likely to trigger a relapse.

But if you believe that you would do well with having some extra freedom, then an IOP could be your best option for recovering from substance abuse. We’d be happy to tell you whether we think that this program is a great opportunity for our patients to reach the final steps toward their recovery.

What Are the Benefits of IOP Program in Orange County

1. Flexible Treatment Schedules

IOPs allow individuals to receive treatment while still attending to their work, school, and family commitments. This flexibility makes it easier to integrate recovery into everyday life without significant disruption.

Our programs offer evening or weekend sessions to accommodate different schedules​

2. Continued Support & Level of Care

Patients benefit from ongoing support through regular therapy sessions. This consistent engagement helps reinforce coping strategies and provides a safety net during the recovery process. The structured environment of an IOP ensures that patients remain accountable and motivated.

3. Diverse Therapeutic Methods

IOPs incorporate a variety of therapeutic approaches, including:

  • Individual Therapy: One-on-one sessions with a therapist to address personal challenges and develop coping mechanisms.
  • Group Therapy: Shared sessions with peers to build a support network and learn from others’ experiences.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Techniques to change negative thought patterns and behaviors.
  • Holistic Therapies: Practices such as yoga, mindfulness, and nutritional counseling to promote overall well-being​.

4. Cost-Effective

Compared to inpatient programs, IOPs are often more affordable. They provide a high level of care without the added costs of housing and full-time supervision. This makes IOPs a viable option for many individuals seeking intensive treatment without the financial burden of residential rehab​.

Mental Health Condition Treatments in IOP

IOPs are highly effective for treating a variety of mental health conditions. They offer a structured yet flexible approach to therapy that allows individuals to receive comprehensive treatment while continuing to live at home.

At Still Water Wellness, we understand that mental health issues are an integral part of the recovery process for our patients. That’s why we include a range of therapies designed to address both mental health conditions such as:

Depression: IOPs can help individuals manage severe depression by providing intensive therapy and support, which helps to alleviate symptoms and prevent relapse.

Anxiety Disorders: A focus area of our behavioral health treatment program. These programs offer cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based treatments to help manage anxiety symptoms and develop coping strategies.

Bipolar Disorder: IOPs provide structured support and medication management, crucial for stabilizing mood swings and maintaining stability.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Specialized therapies such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and trauma-focused CBT can be part of an IOP to help process and reduce PTSD symptoms.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Intensive therapy, including exposure and response prevention (ERP), is often used in IOPs to help individuals manage OCD symptoms.

Eating Disorders: IOPs can provide multidisciplinary treatment, including nutritional counseling, psychotherapy, and medical monitoring, essential for treating eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia.

Is an Intensive Outpatient Program better than inpatient rehab?

It wouldn’t be accurate to say that an IOP is better than inpatient treatment or vice versa because each individual’s needs in addiction treatment vary, suggesting that treatments must be personalized. Each type of program may be better suited to the unique needs of different individuals.

Inpatient Rehab:

  • Provides 24-hour support
  • Highly structured environment
  • Suitable for those needing intensive, round-the-clock care

Intensive Outpatient Program:

  • Offers structured support with more freedom within a partial hospitalization program framework
  • Allows patients to continue daily routines
  • Ideal for those who need support but not constant supervision

  • Mind-Body Connection: a crucial aspect of mental health treatment. Participate in yoga classes to facilitate a better connection between your mind and body.
  • Workshops and Educational Sessions: Our IOP includes workshops and educational sessions that cover a range of topics related to addiction, recovery, and life skills.

What can I say about Suzi and her business of Stillwater massage? That she has the most amazing healing hands ever! I have fibromyalgia and every time I go to her I feel so much better and more like my healthy self. She also goes above and beyond with listening to my issues before the massage starts. She also comes up with different techniques that she has used before that she thinks might help and I for sure listen because she is right every time! I would highly recommend Suzi for a massage and for a very relaxing and healing time!

Such an amazing experience. I haven’t gotten a massage or facial in over a decade but after treating myself to one I know I have to incorporate them into my life more often. Lea was amazing, was able to make me feel comfortable, worked around an injury, and didn’t push to upsell me anything at the end. Highly recommend.

Having put off theraputic massage for many years, my experiences with this amazing staff have completely changed my mind. You are provided with a calming environment before you even begin your journey towards relaxation. For someone who carries most of their stress in their back and neck, I would be lost without a massage at least once or twice a month. Five stars each and every time.

What an amazing experience. From the ambiance to the owner’s knowledge, you can tell everything was well thought out. I went for a 90 minute session with Ian, and he carefully listened to me about my problem areas before starting. I’ve had my fair share of massages in my life, from chain stores to single owners, from hotels to beaches, and this is the first time that I’ve had someone work knots out without having me squeal like a pig. I highly suggest you check this place out. Fair prices, knowledgeable staff, excellent location, all check boxes ticked.

My experience here has beaten my expectations every time. Both Suzi and Ian have lengthy experience in the medical field and combine this with massage to assess and work towards healing injuries. I sit all day at work and this has been a game changer to incorporate massage into my wellness routine. Reoccurring headaches and back pain have gone! I'm also sleeping better. This place is the best! Not all massage places are equal - definitely recommend you book here!

The owner and her husband are both amazing LMT’s! I was in a nasty accident and screwed up my back and shoulder and Suzi was able to make it SO MUCH better!

Suzi is an amazingly talented massage therapist. Her full body massage can put me to sleep as it is so thorough and comforting yet I want to stay up and chat with her. Suzi has a way of finding my problem spots and relieving pain and tension. I walk out feeling loose, clear headed and ready for my next adventure. Suzi also is wonderful at yoga. My last session was a combined session of yoga first and massage afterward. I took home techniques and practices to use between sessions that have been helpful to me. The space is soothingly decorated, clean and comfortable and is telling of Suzi’s many talents including being an herbalist. Suzi’s husband, Ian, is also a massage therapist and I’ve heard wonderful things about his talented technique and attention to detail. I travel 35 minutes for massages with Suzi because I have not found another comparable massage therapist. You will be very happy with your experience, I always am.
