Levels of Care
The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Levels of Care is a comprehensive framework that guides the assessment and treatment of individuals with substance use disorders. This model outlines a continuum of care, ranging from early intervention to medically managed intensive inpatient treatment, ensuring that each person receives the appropriate level of support based on their specific needs. ASAM's multidimensional approach considers various factors, including the severity of addiction, co-occurring mental health conditions, and the individual's readiness for change. By matching treatment intensity to the individual's needs, ASAM Levels of Care promote more effective, personalized recovery pathways. This framework helps clinicians and treatment providers develop targeted treatment plans that enhance outcomes and support long-term recovery. The goal is to provide the right care at the right time, helping individuals achieve sustainable recovery and improved quality of life. At Psychology Associates, we adhere to these principles to ensure that our clients receive the most appropriate and effective care for their unique circumstances.
Levels of Care at Psychology Associates
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) at Psychology Associates provides a structured and supportive environment for individuals who need more intensive care than traditional outpatient services but do not require full-time residential treatment. IOP is designed to help clients manage their recovery while maintaining their daily responsibilities, such as work or school. The program includes multiple therapy sessions each week, focusing on skill-building, relapse prevention, and emotional regulation. Our IOP also offers group therapy and individual counseling, providing a balanced approach to addressing both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. With a flexible schedule, IOP allows clients to receive the care they need while staying connected to their everyday lives.
Outpatient Program (OP)
The Outpatient Program (OP) at Psychology Associates offers flexible, personalized care for individuals who need ongoing support but at a less intensive level than IOP or PHP. OP is ideal for those in the later stages of recovery or those managing less severe mental health issues, allowing them to attend therapy sessions while continuing with their regular activities. Our OP includes individual therapy, group sessions, and other supportive services, all tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. This program focuses on maintaining progress, developing coping strategies, and preventing relapse, helping clients achieve long-term wellness. With its adaptable format, OP is a great option for those seeking continued care that fits into their busy lives.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at Psychology Associates provides an intensive level of care for individuals who need more support than outpatient services but do not require 24/7 residential treatment. PHP involves daily therapy sessions, including both individual and group counseling, designed to address complex mental health and substance use disorders. Clients in PHP benefit from a highly structured environment during the day, with the flexibility to return home in the evenings. This level of care is ideal for those transitioning from inpatient treatment or those needing comprehensive support to stabilize their mental health. Our PHP focuses on providing the tools and skills necessary for clients to achieve and maintain recovery while gradually reintegrating into their everyday lives.
