Many people have found that there are many benefits of an intensive outpatient program (IOP) at True Life Center.
Flexibility and Freedom
Outpatient addiction treatment allows patients to receive the care they need without taking long breaks from school, work, or parenting. Outside of the treatment hours that patients spend at the facility (which vary depending on clinical recommendations and intensity of the program), patients are able to spend their time as they choose.
Many treatment centers offer both afternoon and evening options. Some even offer customizable programs that work around a patient’s personal schedule. Individuals are able to pursue recovery while maintaining a full-time job or class load, raising children, or continuing to support their families.
Our intensive outpatient program in San Diego gives you the freedom to get the help you need on your schedule.
More Affordable Treatment
Great addiction treatment doesn’t come cheap. However, with a residential treatment program, patients are footing the bill for far more than group therapy or psychiatry. The cost of (what are often luxury) accommodations, meals, housekeeping, grounds maintenance, and more can quickly add up to a total price that is out of reach for a majority of individuals, even those with excellent insurance.
Outpatient addiction treatment centers often have far less overhead and can charge an amount that more accurately reflects the cost of care rather than all-inclusive amenities.
High-Quality, Personalized Care
The lower cost of outpatient programs does not equate to a lower quality of care. In fact, many outpatient facilities offer a level of care equal to or superior to residential treatment. In terms of treatment hours per week, many would be surprised to find intensive outpatient treatment (typically up to 20 hours a week) might even come out ahead of most traditional rehabs. While residential patients spend 24 hours a day at the facility, a majority of that time is spent sleeping, eating, socializing, or engaging in non-treatment-related activities.
When patients’ time at a facility is limited and associated with recovery only, sessions tend to be more focused. Also, the flexibility of scheduling for both patients and practitioners allows for more treatment options, more personalized treatment, and more one-on-one sessions.
You’ll find that our addiction treatment center in San Diego offers the highest level of care, customized to fit your individual needs.
Recovery in the Real World
Outpatient rehab allows individuals the opportunity to immediately incorporate what they learn at treatment in their everyday life. For those choosing outpatient care, recovery begins within the context of daily stressors, challenges, and potential setbacks. There is no transition period after treatment. These individuals already have experience navigating relationships, careers, education, and recreation while sober.
