You need treatment that does not require giving up your bed at home. Intensive outpatient can fit. Near-me search still needs clinical honesty about whether home is safe enough.
Call 911 for emergencies. Call or text 988 for a crisis.

Someone who says IOP is always cheaper so you should skip needed detox is steering on price, not safety.

Common Questions
What is IOP?
Intensive outpatient programs provide several hours of structured treatment on multiple days per week while you live at home. See the IOP treatment-type page for the full clinical overview.
How do I find IOP near me?
Search FindTreatment.gov, ask your insurer for in-network IOP facilities, ask a current therapist for referrals, or call or text (800) 653-9376.
Is virtual IOP real IOP?
Some programs offer telehealth IOP when clinically appropriate and allowed. Ask about licensing, attendance rules, and whether your home is a safe place to do groups. See virtual IOP.
Can I work during IOP?
Often yes if the schedule fits. See can you work during IOP and weekend IOP for workers.
When is IOP not enough?
Unstable housing, dangerous withdrawal risk, or need for 24-hour structure may require residential or PHP first. Ask for an assessment, not a package upsell.
