Individuals struggling with addiction or a co-occurring disorder are eligible for our intensive outpatient program (IOP). Our off-site intensive outpatient program in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, is a step down from our partial hospitalization program (PHP). Through our IOP program, individuals do not live on campus but are required to attend mandatory programming just a short drive away.
Our IOP treatment includes weekday programming from 8:30 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. After morning sessions, patients spend the rest of their day attending various meetings, receiving job-placement assistance such as resumes and mock interviews, working in town, and sober networking. Weekly medication-assisted treatment (MAT) appointments, individual therapy, and family sessions are included in IOP, as are group sessions and case management.
