Roots That Build Resilience
Our 12-week Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) blends group therapy, evidence-based skill building, and care coordination so adults can move from struggling to steady.
What's included in our IOP
Below are five entry points into our program. Choose the one that fits you. Each section has tailored language and a way to start the conversation.
Just discharged? Let's make sure the progress holds.
Who this is for
Adults 18+ recently discharged from inpatient psychiatric care, PHP, or the emergency department. Stable enough to live at home, but not ready to drop to weekly therapy.
Common concerns
- Fear of relapse
- Loss of structure after discharge
- An empty calendar and too much time alone
- Shame about the crisis
- Difficulty resuming work and family life
- Uncertainty about what comes next
What they need
Immediate continuity of care, a soft landing between hospital and everyday life, skills to manage warning signs, medication coordination, community, and reassurance of support.

Who this is for
Adults 18+ already in outpatient care, with a therapist, psychiatrist, or both, but getting worse not better. Not in acute crisis, but clearly sliding.
Common concerns
- Worsening symptoms despite treatment
- Fear therapy isn't working
- Feeling stuck or like you're failing
- Reluctance to admit you need more help
- Worry about leaving your current therapist
- Uncertainty about how higher care fits your life
What they need
Higher level of structured support for a defined period, intensive skill-building, coordination with your existing therapist and prescriber, emotional regulation tools, reassurance that needing more is wisdom, not failure, and a clear next step back to routine outpatient care.
My current treatment isn't enough. Tell me more.
My current treatment isn't enough. Tell me more.You look fine on the outside. Inside is another story.
Who this is for
Adults 18+ who appear fully functional, holding a job, showing up, caring for others, while privately struggling with depression or anxiety. Often undiagnosed or under-treated, having managed for years by calling it stress. Includes people on medical leave, between jobs, shift or gig workers, students, and stay-at-home parents.
Common concerns
- Exhaustion from holding everything together
- Feeling numb, empty, or going through the motions
- Guilt for struggling when life looks fine on the outside
What they need
A safe space to stop performing, real skills for real life, a community of people who understand, and flexible daytime programming.

Who this is for
Spouses, partners, adult children, parents, or close friends of an adult whose mood disorder is worsening. Often the one making calls, researching options, and trying to get their person help, sometimes against resistance.
Common concerns
- Watching a loved one sink and feeling helpless
- Not knowing how to bring up getting help
- Fear of pushing them away
- Frustration that weekly therapy isn't doing anything
- Uncertainty about what exists between therapy and the hospital
- Your own emotional depletion and burnout
What they need
A clear concrete next step, awareness that intensive support exists between therapy and hospitalization, language for starting the conversation without conflict, hope that things can improve, guidance and reassurance for yourself as a caregiver, and a program that coordinates care openly.

Licensed professionals, including outpatient therapists, counselors, psychiatrists, psychiatric NPs, PCPs, hospital discharge planners, social workers, case managers, EAP coordinators, and crisis-unit staff.
Common concerns
- Will the program communicate or go dark after referral
- Will the client be returned to your care
- Clinical quality and program fit
- Speed of intake for urgent or discharging clients
- Insurance acceptance
- Protecting the therapeutic relationship you've built
What they need
Clear clinical criteria, transparency about our program model (CBT, DBT, MI; 12 weeks; schedule), reliable communication throughout treatment, assurance the client returns to their care, a simple fast referral process, and a trustworthy partner that complements, rather than replaces, their role.
