Multiple Options in Addiction Treatment
An outpatient treatment program is most appropriate for those whose recovery is sufficiently stable. During outpatient programs, clients can stay at home or in a sober living program.
Our Intensive Outpatient Program in Utah, like our Residential and Day Treatment Programs, begins with an assessment by our clinical team. Our addiction IOP in Utah is typically scheduled for three hours a day, three days a week. Based on this assessment and diagnosis, an Individualized Treatment Plan is then prepared.
Based on the above assessments, an Individualized Treatment Plan is developed and will form the basis for treatment. This ITP can be adjusted at any time based on the progress that the client is or is not making in their treatment. At Spirit Mountain Recovery, both the addiction and mental health disorders are treated simultaneously.
A key to our Intensive Outpatient Program is its flexibility in the types of treatment you will receive, and the periods you can devote to your treatment. Treatment times are set to accommodate your work schedule, insurance, school and family obligations.

No matter what level of addiction treatment care you choose, the goal of therapy is to help you achieve lasting sobriety. All licensed rehab programs use various evidence-based therapies and alternative treatment models to ensure you receive the help and guidance you need to get sober. However, not all levels of care achieve this goal in the same manner.
The different levels of care (inpatient, outpatient, and intensive outpatient) offer different levels of treatment intensity based on the nature of each program. At Spirit Mountain Recovery, our intensive outpatient program in Utah offers a higher level of care than standard outpatient programs, serving as a bridge between inpatient treatment and fully independent recovery.
In an inpatient program, you are required to live at the treatment center while participating in therapy. The rehab provides everything necessary for you to place your complete focus on healing and overcoming addiction. During inpatient treatment, you will have access to 24/7 care and support that addresses your physical, emotional, and nutritional needs. Inpatient or residential programs are ideal for someone struggling with a severe addiction or who has experienced relapse after previously going to rehab.
Two other widely used levels of care are intensive outpatient and outpatient programs. While both reference outpatient care, they are different in many ways. A key difference between residential care and any type of outpatient treatment is housing. Outpatient programs allow you to seek necessary addiction treatment care and support while still living at home. Outpatient programs are generally more flexible and structured around helping you achieve your treatment needs on a schedule that considers other obligations such as work and family. Outpatient treatment programs ensure anyone who is motivated to get well can attend group therapy, individual therapy, or peer support sessions in the evenings or at other times that do not conflict with their schedule. Because outpatient programs are less intensive than traditional inpatient care, they often last six months or more as it can take longer to reach your treatment goals.
Substance abuse intensive outpatient programs typically fall somewhere between outpatient and inpatient care. An IOP also allows participants to reside at home while going to addiction treatment therapy. At Spirit Mountain Recovery, our intensive outpatient program in Utah often acts as a bridge or transitional program between inpatient and outpatient care. “Stepping down” to IOP for addiction treatment offers a step between intensive inpatient care and the freedom of returning home for those who have completed inpatient treatment but are not yet comfortable returning home without ongoing support. Intensive outpatient programs are also beneficial as the first course of treatment for someone with a mild to moderate addiction, minimal co-occurring mental health concerns, and an environment at home that is stable and safe.
The most significant benefit to choosing IOP treatment is the ability to receive intensive addiction treatment care in a treatment environment that allows you to remain fully immersed and active in your day-to-day obligations. These programs help reduce some of the fear and stigma surrounding “leaving home” to go to an alcohol or drug rehab. Because an IOP for addiction treatment allows you to remain involved in work and family activities while getting help to overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it is not uncommon for people to feel more comfortable choosing this treatment method.
At Spirit Mountain Recovery, our intensive outpatient program in Utah offers a similar level of treatment intensity to that found in the inpatient treatment environment. It is important to remember that certain factors unique to your treatment needs suggest inpatient care as a first step might offer a greater opportunity for success. However, an IOP program may be the right first step for you if you have a mild to moderate substance use disorder and your home environment is free from substance use triggers. While many people choose outpatient level care because it allows them to remain at home, staying in an environment surrounded by triggers can also be one of the most significant challenges to intensive outpatient treatment. For some, this ongoing exposure to the triggers, including people, events, and places, that led to and furthered addiction may lead to an increased risk for relapse.
One of the primary components used in intensive outpatient treatment is group therapy. Participation in group therapy or peer support groups offers the opportunity to give and receive support from like-minded peers who share similar challenges. Group therapy sessions also provide a chance to work on and improve communication skills that can be so vital to maintaining effective interactions with others after treatment ends. By participating in peer support groups and group activities, you can learn how to engage in social events without using drugs or alcohol to feel comfortable. Group and individual therapy sessions are also utilized to help you develop and practice healthier and safer coping tools needed to overcome relapse triggers in the future.
