LEVEL OF CARE

Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (Virtual IOP)

Receive structured, clinically supported addiction treatment through secure video sessions from the comfort of your home. Our Virtual IOP provides the same quality care as in-person programs, delivered via telehealth.

What Is a Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (Virtual IOP)?

A Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program is a structured level of addiction treatment delivered through secure telehealth video sessions. It provides the same clinical standards as in-person IOP, including scheduled group therapy, professional oversight, and accountability, without requiring daily travel to a treatment facility.

Virtual IOP allows individuals to participate in consistent, clinician-led treatment while continuing to live at home and manage work, school, or family responsibilities.

Important: Program eligibility is determined through a clinical intake and assessment. Participants must have a stable living environment, reliable internet access, and a private space to attend sessions.
