Day Intensive Outpatient Program (DIOP)

ALANA Recovery’s Day Intensive Outpatient Program (DIOP) is designed to provide clients with the fundamental tools they will need to flourish in their recovery. Groups will focus on teaching relapse prevention strategies and coping skills that recovering people need to cultivate a sober, productive lifestyle. Our Master level therapists assist each client in understanding the physical and psychological factors which contribute to their addiction and how to implement therapeutic techniques in their everyday lives.

Goals for this level of treatment include fostering lifestyle changes that promote abstinence, improving coping skills and problem-solving strategies, engaging in community-based support systems (e.g. 12-Step fellowships, Celebrate Recovery, SMART Recovery), assisting with transitional life skills (e.g.- housing, employment, adherence to probation requirements), and developing a strong, positive sober support network.

Groups meet three times weekly and include a process group as well as a psycho-educational group. Clients may choose from evening or a day tract depending on which schedule is a better fit for their particular needs.

An intensive outpatient program involves a weekly three-day program for 16 weeks. Clients would attend three-hour courses for the entire time they check into an IOP. These courses will include tools and exercises that an addicted patient needs to recover from their substance abuse.

If you check into a DIOP, you will explore prevention strategies and healthier coping mechanisms to begin a sober lifestyle. Therapy will be necessary, as trained therapists will guide you through a personalized treatment plan to effectively cure your unique addiction case.

Once you complete the 12 weeks of personalized treatment, therapists will provide references and schedule appointments for aftercare purposes. Aftercare is necessary maintenance to avoid relapse by continuing recovery measures.
