IOP Mental Health Treatment Program in Los Angeles – Intensive Outpatient Service

LAT’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for Mental Health

For 45 years, The Life Adjustment Team has been implementing state-of-the-art comprehensive outpatient psychiatric rehabilitation using the best evidence-based intensive case management practices. We provide one-to-one support in the home, community, school, and workplace when appropriate and work with patients that have a variety of conditions.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Intensive Outpatient Therapy Program

Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is for individuals living with a mental illness, mental health diagnosis, and/or struggling with an addiction. IOP consists of individual therapy and group therapy utilizing evidence-based and experiential modalities. Our goal is to provide every patient with the skills and tools needed to lead an emotionally balanced and fulfilling life through a therapy program and intensive case management services.

What a Client Can Expect From LAT’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for Mental Health

Patients can expect a smaller, more individualized intensive outpatient program, with the one-on-one attention many clients need. Each week, clients will be involved in ten hours spread over three days. Nine of those hours are in the group setting, with one individual hour with a trained clinical staff member. The goal of our smaller-sized IOP is to help clients explore different obstacles in their lives, determine what they want in their future, learn how to set goals, and then work towards those goals. 

In addition, unlike other therapy programs, our IOP mental health treatments tends to be more hands on. This is achieved by incorporating music, mindfulness, and art groups into our Cognitive-behavioral-focused curriculum. Staying active adds a welcome balance to clinical work that helps reduce a client’s fatigue. We have found that clients enjoy the blend of hands-on groups with our Cognitive and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and are more likely to engage with our mental health program due to the diversity in group topics. We have also found that our IOP or intensive outpatient program is a great step down program for these same reasons. 

Who’s Right For Our Outpatient Treatment?

Our mental health care program and outpatient or IOP treatment services help clients readjust after being in an inpatient setting, as well as clients who are looking for a mental health program to help them build a proper foundation and structure in their lives. From a harm-reduction standpoint, our mental health intensive case management program does not use shame, and our case managers strive to meet clients where they are emotionally, behaviorally, and cognitively. While we are not specifically an addiction-focused program, some of our clients do struggle with substance and non-substance addictions.
