Outpatient treatment for substance abuse and mental health disorders offers a flexible, comprehensive approach to care that enables individuals to continue their daily routines while receiving the necessary help. Here are some of the different types of outpatient treatments available:  Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs): Also known as day treatment programs, PHPs are designed for individuals who require a higher level of care but do not need round-the-clock supervision. These programs usually operate five to seven days a week for several hours each day. Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs): IOPs provide more structured therapy, typically requiring attendance several days a week for multiple hours each day. These programs often include individual counseling, group therapy, family therapy, and educational seminars on substance abuse and mental health. Standard Outpatient Treatment: This is typically the least intensive form of outpatient care. It may involve weekly therapy sessions, medication management, or counseling.
