The IOP at Boulder City Hospital typically meets several times a week for a few hours per session. This flexible schedule makes it possible for participants to receive meaningful support while continuing to engage in daily responsibilities.
The program emphasizes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based practices tailored to individual needs. Patients benefit from a safe, supportive environment where they can share experiences, build new skills, and strengthen their path toward recovery.
Admission into IOP begins with a comprehensive assessment by our clinical team. We carefully evaluate each individual’s history, current symptoms, and treatment goals to determine if IOP is the right level of care. Referrals can be made by doctors, therapists, or through self-referral. Our admissions team provides step-by-step guidance, ensuring a smooth start to the program.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are the benefits of attending an Intensive Outpatient Program?
IOP provides structured, therapeutic care while allowing individuals to continue living at home and managing daily responsibilities. It’s a great option for those who need consistent support without full-time hospitalization.
What happens in an Intensive Outpatient Program?
Participants attend scheduled therapy sessions several times per week, including group and individual therapy, skills training, and wellness education. These sessions focus on building coping skills, addressing challenges, and reinforcing positive behaviors.
What is the difference between IOP and PHP?
PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) is more intensive, usually requiring daily attendance for several hours. IOP meets fewer days per week for shorter sessions, offering a flexible but still highly structured level of care. IOP is often used as a step down from PHP or inpatient treatment.
