Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Manalapan, NJ

When life feels overwhelming—whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, addiction, or emotional challenges—you don’t have to go through it alone. At Positive Reset in Manalapan, New Jersey, our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers compassionate, structured support that meets you where you are. It’s designed for people who need more than traditional therapy but still want to stay connected to daily responsibilities like work, school, or caregiving. With us, healing doesn’t mean putting your life on hold—it means getting the right help, right now.

What Is an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?

An IOP provides focused, evidence-based treatment in a flexible format—typically several days per week for a few hours per session. This level of care is designed for people facing moderate to severe mental health or substance use challenges who:

  • Don’t require 24-hour supervision
  • Can benefit from structured treatment
  • Have a safe and stable home environment

At Positive Reset Manalapan, our IOP gives you the support you need to heal—while keeping your life in motion.

What to Expect in Our Manalapan IOP

Before treatment begins, each client completes a comprehensive psychosocial assessment. This helps our team understand your background, symptoms, and current life situation so we can recommend the most appropriate level of care.

If IOP is the right fit, we’ll walk you through every step of the admissions process and design a personalized plan that may include:

  • Individual therapy
  • Group therapy
  • Family counseling
  • Medication management (when appropriate, overseen by a licensed psychiatrist)

Treatment is typically offered 3–5 days per week, with flexible scheduling to support your lifestyle and responsibilities.

IOP Services at Positive Reset Manalapan

Group Therapy: Group therapy is central to the IOP experience. Led by licensed professionals, these sessions focus on:

  • Coping skills
  • Emotional regulation
  • Communication
  • Relapse prevention

Sharing with others in similar situations promotes healing, connection, and personal growth in a supportive environment.

Individual Therapy: In one-on-one sessions, clients explore deeper emotional challenges, past trauma, or personal goals with a licensed therapist. This provides a safe, private space to process and apply strategies learned in group therapy.

Family Therapy: Recovery is often a family process. Our family therapy sessions help:

  • Improve communication
  • Resolve conflict
  • Educate loved ones about mental health

Involving family can strengthen support systems and encourage lasting change.

Medication Management: When appropriate, our psychiatric team offers medication evaluations and ongoing support. All medication plans are integrated into the broader IOP treatment for a well-rounded approach to recovery.

Continuing Care & Discharge Planning: From day one, we help plan for life after IOP. Clients leave treatment with a custom aftercare plan that may include:

  • Ongoing outpatient therapy
  • Community support groups
  • Lifestyle tools for long-term success

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What’s the difference between IOP and regular outpatient therapy?2025-09-03T22:54:11+00:00

Regular outpatient therapy typically involves 1 session per week. IOP offers multiple sessions per week, combining group and individual therapy, and often includes family therapy and psychiatric support for a more structured experience.

How long does IOP usually last?2025-09-03T22:54:30+00:00

Programs typically last between 6 to 12 weeks, depending on individual needs and progress. Some clients may continue with maintenance care afterward.

Will I still be able to work or attend school during IOP?2025-09-03T22:54:48+00:00
