Is Emdr Therapy Available in Intensive Outpatient Programs?

Yes, EMDR therapy is fully integrated into both our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP). We believe in treating the whole person, and we understand that trauma often lies at the heart of substance use disorders. By incorporating EMDR into these programs, we help you address root causes and reduce cravings while maintaining a schedule that works for your life.

Here is how we integrate EMDR across our levels of care:

  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Our IOP typically meets 3–4 evenings per week, providing flexible windows for EMDR sessions so you can balance treatment with work or school responsibilities.
  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): In our PHP, which runs weekdays for several hours daily, individual EMDR sessions are woven directly into your clinical schedule.
  • Standard Outpatient (OP): For those at this level of care, EMDR is available through individually scheduled sessions, usually occurring 1–2 times per week.

Our trauma-informed outpatient care model ensures that this evidence-based therapy is paired with other modalities like Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to provide a comprehensive recovery experience. We accept major insurance plans from providers like Aetna and Cigna to help make this care accessible.

Results may vary, but you are not alone and this is not the end of your story. Please consult a healthcare professional for specific treatment recommendations.
