Virtual Intensive Outpatient FAQs:
Who can benefit from VIOP?
Our Virtual IOP is perfect for anyone in Illinois facing addiction, trauma, or mental health challenges who needs more support than weekly therapy but doesn’t require inpatient care. It’s an outstanding choice for those managing work, school, or family commitments while dedicating time to recovery. If you or someone you care about is struggling, don’t hesitate. Reach out today.
How effective is online rehab?
When suitable, online treatment can be equally as effective as face‐to‐face care. Our Virtual IOP delivers the same clinician‐led therapy, evidence‐based curriculum, and peer network found in our in‐person programs, offered in a flexible format for individuals throughout Illinois.
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 counseling, and a one-hour yoga therapy class every Wednesday. This robust schedule ensures participants throughout Illinois receive the structure and support essential for making meaningful progress in their recovery.
Is virtual treatment right for me?
Virtual options deliver many of the same benefits as in-person care. Whether you’re unable to travel or you appreciate the ease of online treatment, our Virtual IOP could be the perfect fit, wherever you are in Illinois.
Does insurance cover online treatment?
Many insurance plans include coverage for Virtual Intensive Outpatient (VIOP) treatment. We’re in-network with several major carriers to make care more accessible and affordable for residents across Illinois. Because benefits vary by provider and plan, we recommend contacting us for a free insurance verification to help you understand your coverage.
Can treatment be scheduled around my work and family life?
Absolutely. Our Virtual IOP is crafted for flexibility, offering morning, afternoon, and evening group sessions to suit busy schedules. This enables participants throughout Illinois to access top-tier care while managing work, school, and family commitments.
What is the difference between Virtual Intensive Outpatient and online therapy?
Virtual IOP delivers a structured, holistic program featuring multiple weekly group therapy sessions, dedicated individual counseling, and specialized offerings such as yoga therapy and family engagement work. It adheres to an evidence-based curriculum that parallels our on-site IOP.
By contrast, standard online therapy usually involves less frequent one-on-one appointments without the depth of peer interaction, coordinated schedules, or interdisciplinary support. Our Virtual IOP offers a more immersive, community-oriented route to recovery for individuals across Illinois.
