Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) in Las Vegas
About Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Intensive Outpatient Program for Addiction in Las Vegas, NV
Unlike our inpatient rehab program in Las Vegas, which requires patients to live at the rehab facility, patients participating in an IOP live at home and attend treatment for a minimum of 6 hours per week spread out over several days.1 At Desert Hope Treatment Center, patients in the intensive outpatient program typically attend at least 3 days per week of treatment for 3 hours or more per day.
What to Expect in the IOP
Patients can expect a daily schedule full of different behavioral therapies (typically provided in group settings), psychoeducational sessions, and 12-step meetings that vary weekly.
Desert Hope offers multiple treatment interventions, as no single treatment fits all patients.3 At Desert Hope, patients may participate in a variety of therapies and treatments while attending IOP rehab including:4-9
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Patients learn to identify and reevaluate learned unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT also teaches patients coping skills for difficult situations they might face outside of treatment.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – DBT is a goal-oriented therapy approach that emphasizes fostering both change and acceptance. This therapy helps patients improve their life by changing the painful situations they can control and accepting what they can’t change.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI) – MI helps patients develop internal motivation to change and increase patient retention in treatment programs and other behavioral therapies.
- Family Therapy – Includes family members in a therapeutic program that aims to address the family system and addiction. This therapy helps educate family members on how substance use disorder affects the patient as well as the whole family.
- – Some patients also benefit from medication-assisted treatment (MAT) in combination with other behavioral therapies. MAT can be a helpful tool in preventing overdoses and achieving sustained recovery.
At Desert Hope, our IOP curriculum covers a wide variety of addiction topics aimed at educating patients on the disease of addiction, signs and symptoms, treatment options, and long-term outcomes. Psychoeducational sessions are largely informative, as opposed to therapeutic, inspiring patients to make changes of their own accord.
Group discussion topics may focus on:
- Identifying triggers.
- Managing life and money.
- Common challenges in recovery.
- Relapse prevention.
- Motivation for recovery.
- Self-esteem.
- Aftercare planning.
As needed, IOP patients also have access to medical and psychiatric providers.
