What is Depression?
Depression is a common but serious mood disorder that affects how you feel, think, and handle daily activities. It is more than just feeling sad or going through a rough patch; it is a persistent condition that requires professional treatment.
Symptoms of depression can include persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities once enjoyed, changes in appetite, trouble sleeping or sleeping too much, and difficulty concentrating.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Check-In and Morning Meeting: Clients arrive at the facility and often start with a check-in process. This might include a brief meeting or gathering where the plan for the day is discussed, and any pressing issues or feelings are shared.
Group Therapy: A key component of PHPs, group therapy sessions typically occur in the morning. These sessions focus on various topics such as coping skills, stress management, and interpersonal relationships.
Educational Workshops: Clients may participate in educational sessions about mental health, medication management, and strategies for dealing with specific disorders.
Lunch and Break: There’s usually a break for lunch, providing an opportunity for social interaction and relaxation.
Physical Activity: Some programs include a period of physical exercise or movement, such as yoga, walking, or another form of gentle physical activity.
Individual Therapy: Clients may have scheduled one-on-one sessions with their therapist to delve deeper into personal issues, progress, and treatment plans.
Specialized Therapy Sessions: Depending on the patient’s needs, specialized sessions like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), trauma therapy, or somatic therapy may take place.
Skill-Building Activities: Activities focused on building specific skills, such as emotional regulation, communication skills, or relapse prevention techniques.
Return Home: Patients return to their home environment where they can apply the skills learned during the day. This also allows them to maintain family and other personal relationships.
