Individualized-Intensive Outpatient Program
Structured, flexible outpatient care designed to support emotional healing, build coping skills, and promote lasting recovery while maintaining daily routines.
How It Works:
Our Individualized Intensive Outpatient Program (I-IOP) is a multifaceted, intensive treatment program for children, adolescents, and young adults from diverse backgrounds who are struggling with multiple or complex problems. Our program provides a range of supports to bridge the gap between residential/day treatment programs and traditional outpatient therapy. Our I-IOP typically includes outpatient therapy one or multiple times per week, parent/caregiver coaching services, medication management, and group therapy for clients as well as their parents/caregivers. In addition, other therapeutic services may further be included in the treatment plan such as exposure coaching, skills coaching, family therapy, and/or executive functioning training. I-IOP begins with an evaluation to develop an individualized intensive treatment program that targets your needs at the appropriate “dosage.” Next, you (and as needed, your family) will meet with your team to discuss your individualized goals. Your treatment team will meet weekly to collaborate and assure that they are providing you with the best care that fits your values, relevant cultural factors, and specific needs. You will also be part of a monthly team meeting to monitor progress toward your treatment goals.
Frequency: Services from 1-5 days a week, 1-3 hours a day, at BCSC, at home, and/or in school settings.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Who are I-IOPs a good option for?
I-IOPs are ideal for individuals who need more structure than typical outpatient care, but are not at the level of partial hospitalization or day treatment programs.
How long does the I-IOP last?
The I-IOP typically includes flexible treatment plans that are individualized to each person and family, so there is no predetermined amount of time for the I-IOP. The goal of our I-IOP is to provide intensive services on a short term basis, and monthly team meetings are a required part of the I-IOP.
