Deer Hollow Drug & Alcohol Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient Treatment, either General Outpatient Program (GOP) or an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a program allowing the patient to be engaged in treatment either during the day or at night, and return home and keep work and family commitments. We understand that not every person can take the time away from family and work to enter into a residential program. We have built our Outpatient program to give you the best skills, intensive therapy groups and support you need to attend to your daily life while you recover from addiction.
GOP is recommended for those who do not need a medical detox program, or who have been released from an inpatient setting, and completed Intensive Outpatient (IOP) or whose addictions are in the early stages. In GOP, you attend primarily group therapy. It is felt that at this point in either your recovery, you are able to have less frequent interventions and have most of the skills needed in order to live a substance free life.
IOP is a more intensive program for those who may not either need an inpatient setting, or due to family obligations or employment issues, cannot be in an inpatient setting. IOP is also used to transition patients from an inpatient setting to a less restrictive program where they can be established with the group and then transition back to their community with the full support they need.
In both IOP and GOP, patients attend therapy groups and Psychoeducational groups designed to provide the support, skills, education and insights that patients need to be successful.
The following evidence based modalities are used by our highly trained clinicians:
Psycho-educational groups, a more defined group with planned topics, provide education about your addiction(s). Some classes include:
• Relapse prevention and Relapse Autopsies (Why do I keep doing this!)
• Managing triggers and cravings
• Understanding the role of the brain and brain chemistry in addictions
• How addictions happen
• Twelve Step programs and how they help
• Spirituality vs. Religion, why they are different and how both can play a role
• Stages of how to change, and why you would want to
• How mental health issues, or dual diagnosis’ impact recovery from addictions

The following evidence based modalities are used by our highly trained clinicians:
- Motivational Interviewing: Motivational interviewing (MI) is a process where the counselor or therapist does not confront the patient and tell them why they should change or why they have to change. MI helps the patient find out why they want to change. We will help you explore “what’s in it for me”.
- Cognitive Behavioral (CBT): CBT is a solutions focused therapy where you and your therapist will explore the negative beliefs you have about yourself, the world and your life. We aim to replace those maladaptive coping skills with new, healthy coping skills.
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). DBT is a dialectic process, meaning there is always more than one way to think and feel about a situation. DBT creates a balance between acceptance of what is and change, both of which are necessary to overcome addictions.
