Intensive Outpatient Program

Intensive Outpatient program (IOP)

The Haven’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides a higher level of support for drug and alcohol recovery than traditional outpatient care and can serve as an alternative to residential treatment. It is also an ideal step-down option for those transitioning from residential care to ongoing outpatient services. 

The Haven provides free Recovery Housing during IOP participation for women who do not have safe and stable housing in the community.

WHAT DOES OUR INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT PROGRAM INCLUDE?

Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a 90-day program that provides 15 hours of group sessions each week, all focused on building recovery skills. The program also includes individual counseling, trauma processing groups facilitated by licensed clinicians, case management, and peer support.

Participants can engage in a variety of recovery pathways, including 12-Step groups, SMART Recovery, and White Bison meetings. We also offer access to employment resources and AcuWellness.

Our entire clinic is trauma-informed, and we use evidence-based curricula throughout the program. For those who are clinically recommended, we also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Somatic Experiencing as part of trauma recovery.

Below is a small sample of our programming:

Who is the IOP for?

Our Intensive Outpatient Program is intended for women who are struggling with substance use disorder and would benefit from the more structured intervention of this intensive weekly care model. Before entering this program, members will be evaluated based on American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) criteria and psychosocial assessment to identify whether intensive outpatient care is the most appropriate option. Typically, intensive outpatient recovery is right for individuals who are experiencing a high degree of disruption in their daily lives due to substance use disorder or those who are currently in outpatient care and not making appropriate progress with that program.

What happens after intensive outpatient care?

Following successful completion of the IOP, it is important for members to have a transitional care plan for ongoing support. Well before the 90-day mark in your treatment, your care coordinator will give you an idea of where you are heading with your ongoing care. Depending on your needs, you will also receive support for securing housing, employment, schooling, or continuing skills education as you transition away from the IOP.

Our outpatient clinic works with all insurance providers, and we maintain more affordable costs than other local treatment facilities for those paying out-of-pocket for their treatment. With centrally located facilities in Tucson, members can easily reach us by bus. Our clinic also offers plentiful, discreet off-street parking.
