MARS-ATP offers two levels of care: Intensive Outpatient (IOP) and Traditional Outpatient (OPT). Individuals seeking services are placed into the program that fits their individualized strengths, needs, abilities and preferences. The first step in the treatment process is to schedule an initial comprehensive assessment, which will determine the level of treatment and course of treatment necessary.

Intensive Outpatient (IOP): Group therapy is offered three times a week with an optional multi-family group on Saturday. On average, an individual can expect to attend 12-15 three hour group sessions while attending the IOP. However, the number of sessions may vary depending on the individual’s treatment needs. Individual sessions are offered as needed to all IOP participants. Psychoeducation is provided as part of group sessions in response to clients’ needs. This allows the therapist to adjust therapy groups to the individual’s needs rather than adjusting individuals to the program’s needs. Clients are supported and guided through the recovery process during group therapy. Clients develop individualized treatment plans with their therapists that utilize their individualized strengths, needs, and preferences to develop treatment goals. Each client successfully completing the outpatient or IOP program will develop a comprehensive aftercare plan prior to discharge.

Traditional Outpatient (OPT): Outpatient treatment is designed to support change through a combination of individual and/or group therapy. Those in the outpatient program will attend one to two groups and/or individual sessions weekly. Outpatient services are designed to help those with a solid foundation in recovery continue to achieve their recovery goals. Most individuals who complete IOP continue their recovery process through the Traditional Outpatient Program.
