Is Outpatient Treament (IOP) For You?
The River’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is designed to accommodate clients who have a sincere desire to address their chemical or behavioral issues but are resistant to traditional Inpatient Residential Treatment due to financial or time restrictions. Our Signature 4-6 weeks IOP program offers all the clinical benefits of our residential program, whilst allowing you time to attend personal, work, family or educational obligations.
Visitors to Chiang Mai can avail the service or our concierge team to assist in securing housing options, ranging from hotels or serviced apartments, to detached houses or villas, for the duration of your program. Transport plans, fitness trainers, wellness & holistic services are also available as program add-ons.

HOW IT WORKS
Our counseling team provides Assessment, Treatment planning, Individual & Group Counseling, Education and Aftercare planning identical to our Inpatient Treatment.
Clients visit our facility to attend our fixed-schedule treatment 5 days/week for 5 hours/day, and return to your personal life in the evenings and weekends. A primary counselor, and medical doctor when appropriate, supervises and supports your entire treatment process.
The River Rehab’s clinical philosophy is based on the Minnesota Model, which is an abstinence-based treatment theory, but further improved to include evidenced-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Social Learning and Holistic Experiences of mind, body & spirit. Whilst our Intensive Outpatient (IOP) clients only receive the clinical parts of the treatment, which are individual, group and educational sessions, it is possible, and suggested, that you opt for additional Holistic Experience services such as massage, fitness and mediation while attending the program.
The primary benefit of attending a recovery program in a group or community environment is the shared experience and empathy provided by other clients undergoing similar challenges. Though a month of The River’s IOP clinical services is equivalent to 6 months of traditional outpatient counseling, the shared group experience of the program allows you to recognize that you are not alone and that others are attempting and succeeding at the same goals as yours.
