Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

At Empowered Recovery Center in Atlanta, we understand that your recovery is personal — and taking time away from work, school, or home is not always realistic when you’re ready to seek help. That's why we offer flexible rehab programs of varying intensities, like our intensive outpatient rehab program (IOP) in Atlanta.

We want you to have the perfect balance of structure and freedom you need for success. With our Atlanta intensive outpatient program, we offer a middle-tier option that allows you to continue living at home while receiving top-notch clinical care for mental health and substance use disorders. You’ll receive an individualized care plan built around evidence-based therapies, and our team of certified clinicians will be there to support you throughout your recovery.

At Empowered Recovery Center, our intensive outpatient rehab program (IOP) in Atlanta is our middle tier outpatient program. At Empowered Recovery Center Atlanta, our IOP requires a greater time commitment from you than standard outpatient, but less than our partial hospitalization program (PHP). You'll receive the medical care, therapy, and other services you need to maintain your recovery, while getting to live at home or in sober housing.

In our intensive outpatient rehab program (IOP), our patients get a clear treatment plan and regular support from our qualified professionals. You can participate in multiple individual and group therapy sessions per week, without interfering with outside responsibilities. Our goal is to give you well-rounded care that supports every part of your recovery — not just your symptoms.

While your treatment plan will be unique, it may include SUD education, learning relapse prevention skills, symptom management, building support networks, and attending to any other psychosocial needs. Our IOP rehabilitation center for drugs can be just as effective as inpatient or residential treatment, as long as you don't require 24-hour monitoring.

Our IOPs offer 9 to 20 hours of programming per week and are tailored to your specific mental health and substance abuse treatment needs. Your program choice should be partially based on how much treatment and support you need daily. The IOP at Empowered Recovery Center in Atlanta is the right choice if you are further along in your recovery journey or have completed a higher level of care, like inpatient or PHP, and are ready to transition to something less intense.
