Adult Co-occurring Disorder I.O.P.

We created this group to make sure people living with mental illness get the care that truly fits their needs, without unnecessary complications. It also provides a more affordable option by offering a step-down level of care, so patients can transition to a less-intensive program while still receiving the support they need. It’s about creating better access, personalized treatment, and financial relief for everyone involved.

Program Overview

This program is designed for adults managing multiple mental health challenges. The program meets on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.  Morning, afternoon and evening times available, providing a balanced mix of education and therapeutic support, and includes:

 

Psychoeducation: 1.5 hours of informative, engaging lectures designed to empower participants with practical tools and insights.

Process Group Therapy: 1.5 hours of guided group discussions focused on personal growth, support, and connection.
