Hybrid Outpatient Programs for Co-Occurring Disorders (Ages 18+)
At University Behavioral Center, we understand that healing from both mental health challenges and substance use disorders requires an integrated, person-centered approach. Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) will provide structured outpatient care designed to support adults (18+) on their path to recovery — without requiring overnight stays.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): Intensive Day Treatment with Clinical Support
Our PHP is the highest level of outpatient care we will offer. It will provide a full-day schedule of therapeutic services while allowing participants to return home in the evenings.
Key Features of PHP
- Multidisciplinary care team (licensed therapists, medical providers, psychiatrists)
- Individual therapy, group therapy and psychoeducation
- Medication management and psychiatric evaluation
- Trauma-informed care and relapse prevention
- Support for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders
- Weekly family support sessions and care coordination
Program Schedule
Monday–Friday | 5–6 hours per day
Ideal for individuals who need structure and clinical support during the day but have a safe and supportive home environment in the evenings.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Flexible Recovery with Continued Support
Our IOP is a step-down level of care from PHP or a direct entry point for individuals who need more support than weekly therapy but do not require full-day treatment.
Key Features of IOP
- Group therapy focused on skill-building, processing and relapse prevention
- Individual therapy sessions tailored to your recovery goals
- Dual diagnosis support for mental health and substance use
- Holistic approaches including mindfulness, coping skills and life planning
- Coordination with outside providers and referrals for community resources
Program Schedule
Flexible weekday options | 3–4 days per week | 3 hours per day
IOP offers the ability to maintain daily responsibilities — such as work, school or family — while still receiving comprehensive clinical care.
