This program is our most intensive and structured service providing several hours of treatment 3-5 days a week. The program includes professional psychiatric care along with many hours of therapy and skill-building groups both in office and out on adventure. The highly structured environment allows the participant to build close relationships with peers, program leaders, and healthcare providers as they transition away from drugs and alcohol. This level of care is ideal for a client who is medically stable and is in the beginning stages of creating a more distanced relationship with drugs and/or alcohol.

Similar to PHP in terms of psychiatric care, therapy, and skill-building groups, the IOP Program requires a lower time commitment each week. It is designed to help participants better transition into the recovery community and build a support network outside of the clinical program. While still participating in adventure therapy we focus more on building those new coping skills and healthier habits. Due to the “part-time” nature of the program, it is perfect for those who are ready to ease back into work or school.

Designed as the next step after IOP, the Outpatient Program helps refine the tools that we have learned in the more intensive programs and practice ways that we can keep this toolset in working order. In this program, participants will continue individual therapy sessions while group therapy sessions taper off to three hours per week. This requires the individual to lean on and build their recovery community as they begin to shift away from peer group clinical support.

All of our clients at Greenville Transitions Recovery Center receive weekly individual therapy sessions with a licensed clinician. We know that the problem isn’t just the drug or what’s in the bottle, so this is where the rubber meets the road to encourage our clients to strengthen their support network and address some of the causes and side effects of addiction such as cognitive impairment, trauma, coping skills, depression, and more.

We offer family therapy and family groups so clients and their loved ones can better understand what’s going on and how to be supportive. This is one of the most overlooked areas in treatment today. Not only does the person struggling with recovery need support but the family needs it as well. It takes work on everyone’s end to understand what’s going on and how you can best support your loved one. For participants in one of our outpatient programs, family therapy takes place once a week with a licensed clinician. It is also an option for those choosing different treatment plans.

Family group is also once a week and takes place in office with other families who have loved ones struggling with substance use disorder. This group is led by senior families that have been working with clinicians for years. It is a safe place for other families to come vent or receive some support and advice from others.

This is the oil on the bearings that keeps the wheels moving properly. Who wants to sit in a classroom setting for five hours a day listening to a lecture? There is only so much of that we can take. That is why we decided to add adventure into the mix with activities such as hiking, mountain biking, paintball, top golf, yoga, etc. Many of us have addictive personalities that latched on to drugs and alcohol. When those substances are removed, the addictive personality doesn’t just disappear. We often channel it towards activities that give us a similar thrill, such as running, biking, working, gaming, music, Netflix, eating… the list goes on. Adventure therapy helps to shift that addictive tendency into something healthier and productive.

Medication management involves the initial evaluation of the patient’s need for psychotropic medications, the provision of a prescription, and ongoing medical monitoring by a qualified physician/prescriber.
