Summit Intensive Outpatient Program
The Summit Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is an evidence-based mental health treatment program caring for adults ages 18+. Participants in the Summit IOP will learn, practice and implement skills to decrease mental health symptoms and increase life and relationship satisfaction. Medication management will be offered during their 6-week enrollment with a follow-up treatment plan provided at discharge.
