Virtual Intensive Outpatient FAQs:
Who can benefit from VIOP?
Our Virtual IOP is ideal for people in California dealing with addiction, trauma, or other mental-health challenges who need more than weekly therapy but don’t require inpatient care. It’s a smart choice for those juggling work, school, or family commitments while pursuing recovery. If you or a loved one is struggling, don’t wait. Reach out today.
How effective is online rehab?
When it’s the right fit, virtual treatment can match the effectiveness of in-person care. Our Virtual IOP offers the same expert-led therapy, evidence-based curriculum, and peer support found in our on-site programs, delivered in a flexible format for people across California.
What can I expect from a VIOP program?
Our Virtual IOP delivers 15 hours of weekly programming: four 3-hour group therapy sessions, one hour of individual therapy, and a Wednesday yoga therapy hour. This well-rounded schedule gives participants across California the structure and support they need to make meaningful progress in recovery.
Is virtual treatment right for me?
Virtual care can deliver many of the same advantages as in-person treatment. If travel isn’t possible or you simply prefer the ease of online support, our Virtual IOP could be the perfect fit—wherever you are in California.
Does insurance cover online treatment?
Yes, many insurance providers cover Virtual Intensive Outpatient (VIOP) treatment. We’re in-network with several leading insurers, making high-quality care more accessible and affordable for people across California. Because benefits differ by plan and provider, reach out for a complimentary insurance verification to understand your coverage.
Can treatment be scheduled around my work and family life?
Absolutely. Our Virtual IOP is built for flexibility, with morning, afternoon, and evening group sessions to suit busy schedules. This enables participants across California to access high-quality care while juggling work, school, and family commitments.
What is the difference between Virtual Intensive Outpatient and online therapy?
Our Virtual IOP delivers a structured, comprehensive program featuring multiple weekly group sessions, individual counseling, and specialized services like yoga therapy and family work — all built on the same evidence-based curriculum as our in-person IOP and accessible to Californians wherever they are.
In contrast, typical online therapy involves occasional one-to-one sessions and lacks robust peer support, structured programming, and multidisciplinary care. Our Virtual IOP offers a richer, community-driven pathway to recovery for people throughout California.
