Hope Restoration Center — Intensive Outpatient Program, Sandy Utah

"Healing is not a luxury. It's possible — and our IOP gives adults the structure, consistency, and clinical depth to make it real."

IOP is ideal for adults who need more than weekly outpatient therapy, or those looking for a structured, consistent level of care that fits around their daily life without requiring an overnight stay.

Program Structure

What to Expect

Step 1 — Initial Assessment −

Before beginning IOP, every client completes a confidential clinical assessment with a licensed clinician. This helps us understand your history, current challenges, and goals — and ensures IOP is the right level of care for where you are right now.

Step 2 — Your Personalized Treatment Plan +

Following your assessment, your assigned clinician develops a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, goals, and schedule. No two plans are identical. Yours will outline your therapy modalities, session frequency, progress milestones, and step-down criteria.

Step 3 — Group & Individual Therapy +

Sessions run seven days a week with morning, afternoon, and evening options. Each week includes structured group therapy sessions (90 minutes each) facilitated by a licensed clinician, plus one dedicated individual session. Group sizes are kept small — 6 to 10 clients — to ensure every voice is heard.

Step 4 — Skills-Based Workshops +

Alongside therapy, clients attend weekly skills workshops covering emotional regulation, distress tolerance, communication, boundary-setting, and relapse prevention. These practical tools are designed to be used in real life — at work, at home, and in relationships.

Step 5 — Progress Reviews & Adjustments +

Progress is reviewed regularly — typically every two to three weeks — with your clinician. If your needs change, your treatment plan is adjusted accordingly. IOP typically runs 8 to 12 weeks, with a supported transition plan when you are ready to move forward.

Step 6 — Discharge & Aftercare Planning +

Leaving IOP is a planned, supported process — not an abrupt ending. Your clinician works with you to build a comprehensive aftercare plan including step-down therapy, community resources, peer support connections, and any referrals needed to sustain your progress long-term.

IOP — Specific Questions

Can I continue working or going to school while in IOP? +

Yes. IOP is specifically designed to allow you to maintain your daily responsibilities. With morning, afternoon, and evening session options available seven days a week, you can structure your program around work, school, or family commitments.

How is IOP different from standard weekly therapy? +

Weekly therapy is typically one session per week. IOP provides multiple sessions per week — group therapy, individual counseling, and skills workshops — giving you significantly more clinical contact, structure, and support at a time when you need it most.

How long does IOP last? +

IOP typically runs 8 to 12 weeks depending on your clinical progress. Your clinician reviews your progress regularly and adjusts the plan as needed. When you are ready, a supported transition plan is put in place to maintain your progress.

Participation in our programs is voluntary. You may choose to leave at any time.

Your clinician will always support your autonomy while ensuring you have the clinical information needed to make an informed choice.

What if I miss a session? +

We understand that life happens. If you need to miss a session, please notify us as early as possible.
