Balance Treatment Intensive Outpatient Program
The goal of Balance Treatment Center Intensive Outpatient program is to provide our clients a path to long-term stability and well-being using a balanced approach that the clients will be able to follow in their daily lives. Balance IOP provides treatment, support and education to those struggling with depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, oppositional defiance, psychosis, and substance abuse issues including dual diagnosis. Those who enter our program will be welcomed into a supportive and structured group environment, consisting of people struggling with similar challenges, where they will be made to feel comfortable expressing their struggles and concerns. Our team of seasoned clinicians offers a variety of clinical backgrounds to expose our clients to a range of therapeutic approaches so that our collective clinical knowledge can best suit each client’s unique needs.
Balanced Treatment Approach
Balance clients start with an intake assessment and diagnostic testing which will reveal possible emotional issues, social issues, educational issues or physical issues. Using the initial assessment, we will formulate an individualized treatment plan. At admission, the discharge planning needs of our clients are identified. We work closely with our clients to develop a comprehensive discharge plan to provide continuity of care and to assist our clients and their families in maintaining gains made throughout treatment. Balance IOP treatment will include psychotherapy, education and symptom management focusing on four components we believe to be developmental milestones: emotional, social, educational and physical. Only when all four of these components are addressed and in balance, can true recovery and stability be reached. Balance IOP utilizes evidence-based treatment modalities that have been shown to help reduce the symptomology of clients with mental health diagnoses.
Everyone has the capacity to change.
Our goal is to facilitate that change. We don’t want to stop with simply helping someone cope with their mental illness or addiction. We want to help them modify or completely erase the underlying faulty beliefs that are contributing to their struggles. If we stop solely with coping, it leaves open the possibility for the person to experience one wrong step or a change in stressors that upsets the equilibrium, the balance. The result may be the reemergence of the same day-to-day struggles. Each time it is likely to feel worse, as the individual is disappointed and discouraged that his or her previous efforts were ineffective.
