What IOP actually involves

A typical intensive outpatient program in California runs 9–15 hours per week, usually three-hour blocks, three to five days per week, for 8–12 weeks. Expect group therapy, individual counseling, relapse-prevention work, and (if appropriate) medication support like buprenorphine or naltrexone. PHP (partial hospitalization) is the step above — roughly 20–30 hours/week — and standard outpatient is the step below, often 1–2 groups weekly.

Questions to ask any outpatient program

  1. What's the weekly schedule, and can it fit around work hours?
  2. Do you offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) on site?
  3. Is this a county-contracted program (Medi-Cal) or private-pay?
  4. How do you coordinate with my primary doctor or psychiatrist?
  5. What does a typical week look like after the first month?
