Intensive Outpatient Program Los Angeles County Alpha Recovery Center
Structure is one of the hardest things to hold onto in early recovery once the daily schedule of a residential program ends. An intensive outpatient program is built to replace that structure with something a person can actually keep up while returning to work, school or family life. At Alpha Recovery Center in Lancaster, the intensive outpatient program offers several hours of group therapy and individual sessions each week without requiring clients to live onsite, which makes it a natural next step after residential treatment or PHP, or a starting point for someone whose situation does not call for round the clock care. Sessions draw on the same clinical tools used earlier in treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma informed care and family therapy, so the approach does not change even though the setting does. Life skills classes continue as well, since managing work, transportation and daily routines is often the hardest part of this stage.
