Who it's for
Structured care + daily life
Setting
Coldwater Canyon campus
Overview
IOP at Faith Recovery Center happens on Coldwater Canyon — same estate as residential and PHP, not a separate clinic across town. Sessions are weekday clinical blocks sized so Westside clients can drive in from West Hollywood, Santa Monica, or Bel Air. Admissions sets your exact cadence at intake; we do not treat “3 days / 3 hours” as a slogan that replaces a real schedule.
Multi-day weekly structure
A common IOP pattern is about three sessions per week, roughly three hours each — enough contact to stay accountable without a full treatment day.
Compatible with life demands
Many clients continue work, school, or caregiving with schedule coordination — a key difference from PHP and residential.
Evidence-based modalities
Individual and group therapy, CBT/DBT skills, relapse prevention, and dual-diagnosis support as indicated.
Accountability built in
Attendance expectations, clinical monitoring, and step-up options if stability slips.
Who this program is for
IOP on this campus fits two paths. Drive-in: professionals and parents in WeHo, Santa Monica, and Bel Air who have a stable home and need more than weekly therapy without a full PHP day. Step-down: clients leaving PHP or residential who still need multi-day accountability with the same team. If withdrawal risk, an unsafe home, or dual-diagnosis intensity still needs a full clinical day, PHP or residential is the honest next conversation — not a lighter IOP because it is easier to schedule.
IOP programming
IOP here is still a program with attendance expectations — not “light counseling.” Weekday blocks are scheduled around the Coldwater Canyon campus so commute and work hours can coexist when clinical risk allows it.

The process
IOP is where recovery skills meet real schedules — with enough structure to catch problems early.
Assessment & schedule design
We match session frequency to clinical need and life logistics, and confirm IOP (not PHP or residential) is appropriate.
Group + individual therapy
Core weeks combine process groups, skills practice, and one-to-one sessions focused on triggers and dual diagnosis when present.
Between-session practice
Homework, family agreements, and real-environment coping become part of treatment — reviewed in the next session.
Step-down to standard outpatient
As risk decreases, intensity steps down with a written aftercare plan and community supports in place.
Right-sizing care
Choosing IOP solely because it is convenient can under-treat high-risk early recovery. Choosing residential for everyone is also wrong. Level of care should match clinical risk.
3×/wk
Common IOP cadence
Enough contact for accountability when evenings and weekends are relatively stable.
8–12
Typical IOP weeks
Many clients complete a defined IOP episode then step to weekly outpatient maintenance.
Step-up
Path if stability slips
IOP is not a trap — if risk rises, PHP or residential can be the clinically honest next move.

After IOP
Standard outpatient
1–2 sessions per week for maintenance and ongoing dual-diagnosis care if needed.
Long-term recovery
Alumni connection, community supports, and periodic clinical check-ins.
Continuing care is essential. If cravings, use, or mental health symptoms escalate during IOP, stepping up to PHP or residential is a strength — not a setback. Call our admissions team 24/7 at (844) 598-5573.
The experience
“IOP let me keep my job and still get real treatment. The groups kept me honest on the days I wanted to coast.”
Session days
Multi-hour blocks for group and individual work on a set weekly rhythm
Work days
Practice recovery at work or school — bring challenges back to therapy
Peer support
Same faces each week — accountability without residential immersion
Step-down
Graduate to standard outpatient with a plan, not a cliff
Cost & insurance
Do not assume PHP or IOP is covered because a plan mentions outpatient care. We verify PPO medical necessity and your specific benefit before you start — free and confidential.

Federally protected
The ACA requires most PPO plans to cover substance use disorder treatment at parity with other medical benefits.

Call nowWhat does IOP stand for in rehab?
IOP means Intensive Outpatient Program — multi-day weekly addiction treatment while you live at home or in sober living, without overnight stay at the facility.
Who drives in for IOP versus who steps down from residential or PHP?
West Hollywood, Santa Monica, and Bel Air clients often drive to 2200 Coldwater Canyon Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 for weekday IOP when home is stable enough to practice recovery between sessions. Others step down from PHP or residential on the same campus so they do not restart with a new provider. If nights are unsafe or withdrawal risk remains, IOP is not the first honest recommendation.
How long does IOP last?
Many IOP episodes run about eight to twelve weeks before stepping to standard outpatient. Length follows medical necessity — not a preset package.
How much does rehab cost in Los Angeles?
Cash ranges vary by level of care. IOP is typically less per day than PHP or residential, but a multi-week episode still adds up. See our cost guide for 2026 industry bands, then verify your PPO benefit — those figures are not a Faith Recovery rate card.
How do people pay for IOP in Beverly Hills?
Most families start with insurance verification. Some blend PPO benefits and private pay. We verify before you assume IOP hours are authorized — outpatient language on a card does not automatically mean this intensity is covered.
Can I work during IOP?
Often yes, which is why Westside professionals choose this campus for drive-in care. Some schedule adjustments are still common. If work continuity requires skipping needed clinical hours, that is a level-of-care problem — not a reason to under-treat.
What if I relapse during IOP?
Tell your clinical team immediately. Options may include intensified IOP, step-up to PHP or residential, medication changes, or family support adjustments — the goal is safety and re-stabilization.
