An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a flexible yet structured treatment option that provides ongoing therapeutic support while allowing clients to live at home or in sober living. IOP is often the next step after detox, inpatient, or PHP treatment, giving clients the tools and accountability they need while balancing recovery with work, school, or family life.
At Windansea Recovery, our IOP combines evidence-based therapies, holistic practices, and community support to help clients strengthen their recovery skills and build lasting independence.
IOP helps bridge the gap between intensive care and long-term independence. Benefits include:
Ongoing structure and accountability while living at home or in sober living.
Flexible scheduling for work, school, and family responsibilities.
Access to therapy and holistic care several times per week.
Strong relapse prevention and coping skill development.
Continued connection to the WindanSea Recovery community.
Our IOP program typically involves attending treatment sessions 3–5 days per week for several hours per day. The program is structured to help clients:
Build Stability: Stay connected to recovery while regaining independence.
Develop Skills: Learn coping tools, relapse prevention strategies, and life skills.
Strengthen Support: Engage in group therapy, peer connection, and family involvement.
Transition Forward: Step down to outpatient care or community-based recovery programs.

Are ready to return to work, school, or family life with accountability.
