Harbor Care High Intensity Outpatient Services: A Bridge to Recovery

Intensive Outpatient Care for Substance Use Treatment

At Harbor Care, our High Intensity Outpatient Program (HIOP, formerly PHP) offers a structured and supportive environment for individuals seeking recovery from substance use. Our program provides a balanced approach to treatment, combining the intensity of inpatient care with the flexibility of outpatient services.

What is a High Intensity Outpatient Program?

A High Intensity Outpatient program, also known as day treatment, is an intensive form of outpatient rehab that allows you to live at home while receiving daily treatment. At Harbor Care, our High Intensity Outpatient Services typically involves treatment for 3 to 7 days per week in 6- to 8-hour time blocks, offering a level of care that is more intensive than traditional outpatient programs but less intensive than inpatient treatment.

Who Can Benefit from High Intensity Outpatient Services?

Our HIOP is suited for individuals who:

  • Have completed detox or do not require it.

  • Do not need 24-hour supervision but still require a structured treatment environment.

  • Have a supportive home environment or access to sober living arrangements.

  • Are able to commit to regular and intensive treatment sessions.

How It Works

Outpatient programs include licensed clinicians and addiction specialists delivering evidence-based, trauma-informed services that are gender-specific and customized to each client’s unique needs. In general, services help clients and patients address a wide range of topics, including relapse prevention and recovery, trauma issues, and even anger management, and a driver intervention program.

Specific Services Include:

  • Adult and youth one-on-one counseling and therapy.

  • Group Outpatient Program Counseling (OP).

  • Group Intensive Outpatient Counseling (IOP).

  • Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT), for opioid and/or alcohol dependency, and specialized groups.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

  • Substance Use Disorder/Dual Diagnosis evaluations.

  • Licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor (LADC) evaluations.

  • Specialized services for:

  • Recovery Support, Alumni Groups, and Aftercare.

The Difference Between High Intensity Outpatient Program (HIOP) and IOP

While HIOP (formerly known as PHP) and IOP are both structured outpatient treatments, HIOP offers greater intensity, requiring more weekly programming hours and offering a broader range of therapies. It's ideal for those needing more support than IOP yet maintaining some independence. Outpatient Programs, staffed by licensed professionals, provide personalized, evidence-based care focusing on various issues like relapse prevention, trauma, and anger management.
