More about this program
An Outpatient Program for addiction is a vital service offered by many reputable drug treatment centers, including OC Revive. Unlike an intensive outpatient program or residential programs where individuals reside within a facility, outpatient programs allow you or your loved one to receive treatment while continuing to live at home and manage your daily responsibilities. This flexibility is especially beneficial for those who require ongoing support but do not need the intensive structure of residential care.
Our outpatient program is architected to unique needs and circumstances. Through individualized treatment plans, our team collaborates with you or your loved one to develop strategies for overcoming addiction while addressing co-occurring mental health issues.
How OP works
Session-based care with clear goals
OP is less about filling a full day and more about consistent, purposeful clinical contact. Your plan sets frequency and focus.
- Plan
Assessment & goals
Clarify acuity, dual-diagnosis needs, and whether OP is step-down or primary entry.
- Engage
Scheduled clinical sessions
Individual therapy, groups, and skill work on a cadence that matches your plan.
- Practice
Between-session life
Apply skills at home and work with accountability check-ins at the next session.
- Adjust
Step up if needed
If symptoms rise, we can increase intensity to IOP or PHP without starting over.
Schedules are individualized — admissions can walk you through a sample week for your clinical needs.
Why this level
Why outpatient at OC Revive
PHP sits between weekly outpatient and full hospitalization—more clinical hours when you need them, without living at a facility overnight.
- 01
Continuity after intensive care
Step-down that keeps relationships with clinicians and the recovery community intact.
- 02
Sustainable for long-term recovery
Enough structure to stay accountable without the burnout of perpetual high intensity.
- 03
Dual diagnosis included
Mental health and substance use stay on one plan as intensity decreases.
- 04
Same Lake Forest team
You are not handed off to a stranger network when you leave IOP or PHP.
OP may be right if…
- 01
You are stepping down from IOP or PHP
You have stability gains but still need clinical contact and accountability.
- 02
Your acuity is milder
You need structured outpatient care without multi-day intensive blocks.
- 03
You can protect session times
You will show up consistently—OP only works with real engagement.
OP is not the right fit when…
You need multi-day intensive structure
IOP, Evening IOP, or PHP may be safer starting points.
Crisis or high medical risk
Stabilize at a higher level of care first.
You cannot attend sessions reliably
We will problem-solve schedule and level—not set you up to fail.
Therapies & modalities
Therapies available in outpatient care
Clinical and experiential work woven through the program day—skills you practice in session and take home each evening.
- 01
DBT & CBT
Evidence-based frameworks for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and cognitive restructuring—practical skills you can use the same day, not only in session.
- Identify triggers and unhelpful thought patterns
- Build distress-tolerance tools for cravings and conflict
- Practice skills in group and individual settings
- 02
Art & music therapy
Creative modalities when talk therapy is not enough. Expressing through art and music can lower anxiety, surface trauma safely, and open processing that words block.
- Nonverbal expression for hard-to-name feelings
- Reduce anxiety through structured creative work
- Integrated with clinical goals—not free-time only
- 03
Yoga & meditation
Body-based regulation so recovery lives in the nervous system. Grounding, breath, and mindful movement help you stay present when stress spikes outside program hours.
- Breathwork and grounding for acute stress
- Gentle movement to reconnect body and mind
- Skills that travel home with you
- 04
Group & peer support
Process groups and peer connection so you practice recovery with people who understand. Isolation fuels use; community builds accountability and hope.
- Clinical process groups led by licensed staff
- Peer connection without judgment
- Practice social skills in a safe setting
- 05
Individual clinical work
One-to-one time with clinicians who track mood, substance use, and behavior on a plan built for you—not a one-size curriculum delivered on autopilot.
- Personalized treatment planning and check-ins
- Space for dual-diagnosis and trauma themes
- Clear goals between sessions
- 06
Life skills & accountability
Time management, communication, stress tools, and relapse prevention so hours outside program still support recovery—especially for dual-diagnosis needs.
- Relapse-prevention planning you can follow
- Structure that fits work, school, and family
- Skills for relationships and daily life
