Our dedicated staff have combined over 40 years of experience providing excellent mental health care to triangle families. Teens are welcomed into the program by our caring IOP clinicians who are with the teens throughout their journey to better health. This ideal location allows teens to experience the care and treatment they need in an enriching yet soothing environment, rich with many outdoor groups and activities in our urban garden.

What is Intensive Outpatient?

Occasionally, teens need more care than weekly individual and group therapy can provide without needing to be in an inpatient facility. Suicidal ideation, self-harm, anxiety, and intense emotions can leave a teen and a family struggling and wondering what to do to help the teen remain safe and develop the skills needed to develop a life they feel is worth living. Our IOP allows the student to attend school and join the IOP for one of two daily sessions either Morning IOP from 9:00 am-1:00 pm or after school from 4:00pm-8:00pm. They may also participate in individual sessions held between 1:00pm-3:00pm, 

Benefits of teen IOP

Groups provide support. Hearing from others with similar issues helps your teen see they are not alone in dealing with the concerns they may have.  Many teens experience a sense of relief when joining the groups in IOP because they no longer feel like they are the only ones experiencing the intense emotions and struggles that they are experiencing.


IOP treatment costs less than hospitalization and less than residential care. The treatment in our IOP can be an incredibly powerful tool for learning and change. Teens experience multiple groups a day focused on skill building, process, and emotional regulation, as well as tools such as yoga, art therapy techniques, horticultural therapy techniques, and sandtray therapy.


As with all of our groups our IOP groups teach teens about themselves. Every person in the group “holds up a mirror” and each person get to see themselves through the other group member's eyes.  It’s a way of uncovering blind spots that may be in the way of overcoming issues.
