Adult Intensive Outpatient Programs - IOP - PrairieCare

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) provides a partial-day program level of care to individuals struggling with symptoms of mental illness that are interfering with their daily living and are not manageable in weekly therapy or medication management. The program is four to five days per week where the patient returns home after each treatment day and runs 6 - 8 weeks long. Access to care begins with an assessment to identify the treatment approach that could be most beneficial in treatment.

IOP offers multiple modalities of therapeutic programming such as: Adapted Dialectical Behavior Therapy (A-DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Art Therapy integrating the needs of those living with mental illness. Specialized IOP tracks include Perinatal IOP for pregnant and postpartum individuals to under Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs).

Treatment is provided through several ways such as psychiatric medication management, psychoeducation, group and individual therapy, skills building, symptom management, and art therapy.

Transportation options are also available to and from IOP programming through the client's insurance provider. Clients should reach out to their Medical Assistance provider 1-3 days ahead to set up transportation.

NOTE: Adapted Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (A-DBT) services are only available at Edina and Woodbury sites.
