Key Therapies Used in IOP Programs
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - Identify & Change Negative Thought Patterns
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) - Emotional Regulation and Mindfulness
- Group Therapy Sessions - Developing Interpersonal Skills and a Sense of Community
- Individual Therapy Sessions - One-On-One Time With A Licensed Therapist

Every recovery journey is different, which is why treatment is offered at multiple levels of care. Some people begin with medical detox to safely manage withdrawal and then move into inpatient treatment before stepping down to IOP. Others may not need that higher level of structure and can admit directly into IOP.
Same-day or next-day assessments are available to determine the right starting point, ensuring each client receives care that matches their individual needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About IOP
Find answers to common questions about our Intensive Outpatient Treatment Program in Cedar Rapids. Learn how IOP works, who it benefits, and why it’s an effective choice for achieving lasting addiction and mental health recovery.
What is the difference between IOP and PHP?
Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) are the most structured outpatient option, meeting five days per week for several hours each day. PHP offers a high level of clinical oversight and is best for people who need daily support but do not require 24/7 inpatient care.
An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is less intensive, meeting three days per week for three hours per session. IOP provides strong accountability and therapy while allowing more time for work, school, and family responsibilities. Both levels of care use evidence-based treatment, but PHP delivers more clinical hours each week than IOP.
What makes IOP different from OP?
Outpatient (OP) meets once per week and is offered only as a step-down level of care. At Radix, clients cannot admit directly into OP because it is reserved for those who have already completed higher levels such as PHP or IOP.
An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is more structured, meeting three days per week for three hours per session. IOP includes multiple weekly therapy groups, counseling, and accountability, making it the right choice for people who need more support than OP while still living at home.
Can IOP treat co-occurring mental health disorders?
Yes, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) are effective for treating co-occurring mental health disorders alongside addiction. Many IOPs provide integrated care, including therapy for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other conditions, ensuring clients receive comprehensive treatment for both mental health and substance use challenges.
Can I join an Intensive Outpatient Program if I’ve never been in treatment before?
Yes, it can be a great starting point for individuals who are motivated to seek help but do not need inpatient care. It offers structured support while allowing you to remain in your home environment. Our team will assess whether it’s the right level of care based on your symptoms, history, and personal circumstances. If a higher level of care is needed, we can guide you to the appropriate program.
What is the cost of an Intensive Outpatient Program?
The cost of an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) typically ranges between $250 and $350 per session. The total cost depends on the length of stay and clinical services provided. Many insurance plans cover IOP fully or partially, and our admissions team can verify your benefits quickly. We also offer same day or next day assessments to confirm both clinical fit and coverage, so you know what to expect before starting treatment.
Is medication-assisted treatment (MAT) available in IOP?
Radix does not currently prescribe Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) directly. However, we work closely with trusted community partners who provide MAT services. Clients who are receiving MAT with Suboxone, Vivitrol, or Methadone are welcome to attend our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), where counseling, group therapy, and evidence-based support complement their medication plan.
