Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (VIOP)

Overview

What is a Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (VIOP)?

Altura’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is designed to offer a structured and supportive environment for individuals grappling with mental health and substance use challenges. Our IOP allows patients to receive intensive therapy while maintaining their daily responsibilities, such as work, school, or family obligations. This flexible approach is ideal for those who require more support than traditional outpatient therapy but do not need the full-time supervision of inpatient care.

Who Can Benefit

Who is VIOP for?

Individuals

Transitioning from inpatient care and need continued support

Our Virtual IOP provides a seamless transition from the intensive, round-the-clock care of inpatient programs to a more flexible outpatient setting, ensuring that progress made during inpatient treatment is maintained and built upon.

Individuals Who

Require intensive therapy but have work, school, or family commitments

We understand that life doesn’t stop for mental health treatment. Our program offers the flexibility to schedule sessions around your existing commitments, making it easier to balance your responsibilities while receiving the care you need.

Individuals

Living in remote areas with limited access to mental health services
