What is an IOP?

An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a structured yet flexible treatment option for individuals facing mental health challenges or substance use disorders when traditional therapy isn’t enough, but inpatient care isn’t the right fit. At Friendly Recovery Center, our IOP is designed to support recovery while allowing you to balance daily responsibilities such as work, school, or family commitments. You don’t have to put everything on hold to prioritize your mental health—we’ll help you find a way to do both.

Every aspect of our program is tailored to unique needs, blending evidence-based therapies with holistic therapy and wellness practices.
