The MindWork Intensive Outpatient Program

Our patients are people—not disorders, diseases or symptoms.

They’re college students, at-home parents and mid-life professionals. Like you, they have lives that matter and relationships they care about.

Yet their lives have been repeatedly derailed by chronic, complex or treatment-resistant mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, OCD, psychotic disorders like schizophrenia, and dual-diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

They’re ready to get off the merry-go-round of sporadic insurance-constrained treatment that never seems to have a lasting effect.

What You’ll Receive at MindWork Group’s Intensive Outpatient Program

An intensive outpatient program provides a higher level of care than standard therapy, which means more time spent in treatment each week

A Dedicated Team of Experts

Each of our patients is assigned a primary therapist, psychiatrist and family therapist

Individualized Treatment Plans

Our team of experienced clinicians conducts a thorough assessment and creates a customized treatment plan tailored to the patient's specific challenges and goals.

Prescription Medication Management

Competitive Pricing

When considering our commitment to providing ample 1:1 therapy time and our top-quality programming, our pricing ensures that you receive exceptional value for your investment.

Intimate Environment

Our program has an average of six patients a time, which allows us to facilitate an experience that fosters a sense of community and belonging.

Physician Led Groups

8 out of 15 hours of group therapy are facilitated by one or more physicians

Immersive, individualized & expert psychiatric & psychotherapeutic care

We provide a level of care comparable to residential treatment with more time with experienced doctors and therapists than almost any treatment center in the country.

You get the latest evidence-based and individualized psychiatric care plus the know-how, coping skills and tools to truly address behavioral triggers that derailed you in the past. 

MindWork Group’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) gives you the most time, care and personal attention available outside a residential or inpatient mental health program.

For some, it’s a level of care that family doctors and hard-to-get psychiatric appointments and occasional therapy sessions simply can’t deliver.

For others, it’s a step-down from inpatient clinical treatment and a bridge back to independence.

You’ll receive 20+ hours/week of direct care, including weekly 1:1 meetings with our nationally-recognized board-certified psychiatrists. You’ll also receive individual and group therapy every day Monday through Friday from experienced, knowledgeable licensed clinicians.

Every aspect of our program is grounded in your successful return to everyday life, so after completing each day’s therapy, you’ll sleep in your own bed and use your weekends as you wish. 

Tomorrow is a brighter day. Let’s get started on it now. 

Program Structure:

The structure of our IOP is designed to provide an exceptional treatment experience to meet the unique needs of our patients. The program consists of 15 hours of group therapy, 9am-12pm Monday through Friday, as well as 5+ hours of individual therapy each week, scheduled based on patient and provider schedules. Our approach to care is psychodynamic; in other words, we help peoples' make sense of their experiences and teach them how to show up in the world in an intentional way. Some additional elements of our program include:

A Dedicated Team of Experts: Each of our patients is assigned a primary therapist, psychiatrist and family therapist as their core treatment team for the duration of their time in the program. 

Individualized Assessment & Treatment Plans: Our team of experienced clinicians conducts a thorough assessment over the first two weeks of treatment and creates a customized treatment plan tailored to the patient's specific challenges and goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches: Our program incorporates evidence-based therapies and practices, including psychodynamic psychotherapy, components of dialectical-behavior therapy (DBT), mentalization and attachment based therapies, as well as mindfulness and self-compassion practices.

Key Differentiators:

MindWork Group stands out in several ways:

Physician Led Groups: 8 out of 15 hours of group therapy are facilitated by one or more physicians. 

Holistic Approach: We believe in treating the whole person, addressing not only the immediate challenges but also underlying issues contributing to their condition. These often include personality disturbances, trauma, and a lack of self-awareness.

Intimate Environment: Our program has no more than 8 patients at any one time, which allows us to facilitate an experience that fosters a sense of community and belonging, allowing participants to connect with others who understand their experiences.

Continuity of Care: We offer outpatient psychotherapy and psychiatric services for patients that complete the intensive program, ensuring that they are able to maintain their hard won momentum. Additionally, we provide comprehensive aftercare planning to support ongoing recovery, helping patients transition back to their daily lives with the tools and skills they need to thrive. 

Program Cost:

The cost of our Intensive Outpatient Program at MindWork Group is an important consideration. We have structured it to be competitive while ensuring that we maintain the highest standards of care and support. Please keep in mind that the final cost may vary depending on several factors, including the specific needs of the patient and the length of their participation in the program.
