Levels of Care Offered

- Outpatient Treatment: Standardized sessions providing counseling and education while allowing clients to maintain work, family, and educational commitments.
- Intensive Outpatient Treatment (IOP): A more rigorous schedule involving several hours of group and individual therapy per week, suitable for those who need more support than standard outpatient care but do not require 24-hour supervision.
- Regular Outpatient Treatment: Designed for those needing less frequent engagement, often used as a long-term maintenance or aftercare option.
