EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT FOR COMPLEX CHALLENGES

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) 

Are you or a patient in need of more comprehensive support than traditional weekly therapy can provide? At Geode Health, our Intensive Outpatient Mental Health Program (IOP) is designed to provide a higher level of care in a supportive, structured environment. We are dedicated to helping individuals navigate complex mental health challenges through evidence-based practices and compassionate, personalized care.

What is an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?

Geode Health’s IOP is an in-person therapeutic and educational program specifically designed to support patients who require more than traditional outpatient care.

The goal is to provide a structured path toward healing and growth, delivering measurable and effective outcomes for those needing extra support to navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, or mood disorders. 

THE PROGRAM EXPERIENCE

For Patients: What to Expect

Participating in our IOP offers a structured experience to help you reach your mental health goals with a multidisciplinary team. Patients participate in multiple in-person group therapy sessions each day. 

Sessions utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches, including: 

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To help manage negative thought patterns. 
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): To build skills for emotional regulation and mindfulness. 
  • Psychoeducation: To understand the connection between mental health and behavior. 
  • Process Groups: To foster community and shared healing. 
  • Experiential therapies: Including art, music, and yoga for holistic wellness.
