Outpatient treatment programs offer flexible treatment options and support groups for those who are looking for support through the recovery process.
What is Outpatient Treatment?
A standard outpatient treatment program offers more independence flexibility than partial hospitalization (PHP) or an intensive outpatient program (IOP).
When a patient is discharged from an inpatient substance abuse program, they are ready to continue to a higher level of care. They may have attended half-day groups and individual therapy a few times a week. Once a patient’s treatment team deems them ready, they can attend individual therapy one to two times per week; this is considered outpatient treatment.
Every outpatient program is different. Some programs allow patients to continue seeing therapists. Due to high caseloads, they may have to refer discharged patients to an outside therapist. Many recovering addicts see a therapist before treatment and choose to return after being discharged.
It is recommended that recovering users attend an outpatient substance abuse program one to two times a week, along with additional 12-step meetings and/or support groups that are appropriate for their situations.

The Difference Between Inpatient & Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient rehab programs are quite distinct from inpatient rehab programs.
When a patient is admitted to a residential inpatient treatment program, they start a medical detoxification process and are under 24-hour supervision by licensed professionals. Their days are filled with groups, activities, educational sessions, and individual therapy. During the week, inpatient clients meet with physicians, psychiatrists, and nutritionists. Inpatient treatment is the most intensive type of rehabilitation.
In contrast, our outpatient rehab in Johnson County is one of the least restrictive types of addiction treatment. Individuals who have stepped down from other programs into the outpatient program will live their daily lives like normal while attending therapy sessions throughout the week. It is common to have regular or random alcohol or drug use check-ins.
There are numerous benefits of attending an outpatient treatment program before genuine aftercare begins.
- Clients who are in outpatient care have shown enormous progress in recovery, and are typically ready to return to day-to-day life activities outside of treatment facilities. This eagerness showcases motivation, perseverance, and independence.
- Clients in outpatient programs can put into practice what they learned in treatment. All of the coping skills, relationship training, addiction education, etc., can now be put to the test. Outpatient therapists help clients continue to create and monitor short and long-term recovery goals.
- Outpatient treatment provides even more flexibility. Discharged clients see outpatient therapists a couple of times a week, leaving much more time for building relationships, finding new, safe hobbies, working on job skills, and reconnecting with supportive friends and family.

Aftercare Planning & Groups
Unfortunately, the return to substance use can be a part of the recovery journey. Relapse does not equal failure, or that going back to treatment will not work. However, individuals should take care to do what they need to do to be successful outside of the walls of treatment facilities.
Treatment teams and clients will determine an aftercare plan, even as a client is still under care. This might include developing a management plan, identifying outside triggers, setting appointments, identifying barriers to recovery, determining support systems, identifying coping skills to use in multiple settings, etc. Aftercare is all about being proactive and creating success.
Actual aftercare programs, or groups, consist of a sober living community, outside support groups individuals can attend, and alumni groups at a treatment center. Ongoing individual therapy and case management are also forms of aftercare.
Frequently Asked Questions About Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient rehab is a treatment program that doesn’t require a full stay at a facility. This type of treatment is recommended for people who don’t suffer from severe alcohol or drug addiction, or people that can’t afford to take time off of work to enter an inpatient rehab program. Outpatient programs provide a less intensive level of care than inpatient programs, but they still provide the same treatment options, such as therapy sessions and support groups. Addiction treatment for substance use disorders differ based on the individual. Each person has different needs and treatment plans that will help them stay sober
Outpatient treatment programs typically last about three months, but in reality, recovering addicts can see a therapist and other specialists for as long as they want.
Outpatient treatment differs from inpatient rehab, mainly because it is a less intense level of care. During outpatient programs, you have a more flexible schedule that allows you to have free time while continuing long term treatment plans. This form of addiction treatment program helps patients settle back into their lives after beginning their recovery.Unlike inpatient treatment, patients of outpatient treatment still live at home and commute to treatment facilities to attend therapy sessions and support groups. Outpatient programs typically consist of 10 to 12 hours a week spent visiting your treatment facility to receive drug abuse education, advice on how to stay sober, and medical advice if necessary. Along with group and individual therapy sessions, you will also learn healthy habits and better coping mechanisms, distress tolerance, and relationship training.
The cost of rehab varies depending on the type of treatment program you select. Factors that can affect the cost of addiction treatment include the level of care needed, such as inpatient rehab versus outpatient programs, whether your health insurance covers rehab or you will be doing a self pay option, and the length of treatment, such as a 30 day program or a long term treatment option.
The length of outpatient rehab can vary, although it is typically a 3 month treatment program. However, if you feel you need a higher level of care, patients are free to attend outpatient treatment for as long as they wish, as therapy sessions and support groups are always a beneficial form of addiction treatment.
