IOP Arizona
Growth, Healing & Rediscovery
Recovery is a transformative journey filled with opportunities for growth, healing, and rediscovery. At Silver Sands Recovery, we proudly provide a seamless continuum of care that includes detox, residential treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient levels of support. Each stage of treatment is thoughtfully designed to meet you where you are, guiding you forward on your path to wellness.
Our IOP in Arizona serves as an empowering step for individuals moving on from residential or PHP treatment, as well as those seeking structured support in a flexible setting. With a strong emphasis on dual diagnosis treatment, relapse prevention, and reintegrating into everyday life, IOP at Silver Sands Recovery blends clinical strength with personal adaptability. We’re here to help you thrive and achieve lasting wellness, every step of the way!
The Role of IOP in the Recovery Journey
Treatment You Can Count On
IOP serves as a critical bridge between higher levels of care and full independence. It’s ideal for individuals who need ongoing support for substance use disorders, mental health conditions, or co-occurring diagnoses, but who are ready to begin reintegrating into their daily lives.
Whether you’re continuing care after detox or residential treatment, or starting your healing journey with IOP as the first step, this level of care gives you the tools, structure, and support you need to thrive in recovery.
At Silver Sands Recovery, our IOP provides:
- Structured, evidence-based therapy several days a week
- Flexible scheduling to accommodate work, school, or family life
- Group and individual counseling to build community and process deeper emotional work
- Support for mental health challenges, trauma recovery, and relapse prevention
- Real-life accountability, while allowing freedom and autonomy

What to Expect in an Arizona IOP
Treatment Tailored To Your Needs
Located in the breathtaking mountains of Prescott, Arizona, Silver Sands Recovery offers a serene and healing setting for individuals committed to making meaningful life changes. Our Arizona IOP is designed to be both comprehensive and customized, ensuring each client receives the right mix of clinical care and life-skills development.
At Silver Sands Recovery, we create a treatment experience that empowers you to heal not just from addiction, but from the underlying trauma and mental health struggles that often drive it.

A Community Built Around Connection and Growth
One of the greatest strengths of our IOP is the community environment we foster. Group sessions are a core component of treatment, giving clients the opportunity to connect with others who understand their experiences. Many of our clients range from young adults in their 20s to seniors in their 70s or 80s, which creates a diverse and inclusive atmosphere where everyone can learn from one another.
Connection is the antidote to isolation, and in IOP, clients are never alone in their journey. Our small-group format ensures that every voice is heard, and every individual receives personalized attention and support.
A Safe Space for Complex and Chronic Struggles
We understand that many of our clients come to us after multiple attempts at treatment or years of struggling with both addiction and mental health challenges. Silver Sands Recovery specializes in chronic relapse and difficult cases, with a team trained in working with clients who have:
- Dual diagnoses like anxiety, depression, PTSD, and bipolar disorder
- Developmental and complex trauma
- Long-term substance use histories
- Relapsed after previous treatment
- High-pressure lifestyles, such as executives and professionals
- Veteran backgrounds, including those using TRIWEST insurance
IOP offers an intensive level of care without requiring residential placement, making it an ideal option for those who need structure, accountability, and therapy—but who also want to rebuild their routines in the real world.

Individualized Care at Every Step
Silver Sand Recovery’s Continuity of Care
At Silver Sands Recovery, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter treatment plans. Every client in our IOP is evaluated by a multidisciplinary team of licensed clinicians, case managers, and therapists who design a care plan that reflects the individual’s goals, needs, and challenges.
We offer 30, 60, or 90-day IOP tracks, with the flexibility to extend or step down to a lower level of care as needed. We also provide continuity of care across every level—so if you’ve been through our detox, residential, or PHP programs, you’ll experience a seamless transition into IOP with a team who already knows and supports your recovery path.
Our IOP Treatment For Executives, Professionals, and Veterans
Confidentiality, Schedule Flexibility & Support
Our IOP program is uniquely equipped to support individuals balancing professional responsibilities with personal healing. For executives and professionals, we offer confidentiality, schedule flexibility, and support for high-performance lifestyles.
For veterans, our TRIWEST contract allows us to deliver trauma-informed, culturally competent care that honors your service while addressing mental health and addiction issues in depth.
We also provide assistance with return-to-work planning, life skills development, and ongoing therapy, so clients can successfully navigate their re-entry into daily life while maintaining strong recovery foundations.
