Child IOP

Child & Teen Intensive Outpatient Program

Child & Teen Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Comprehensive Psychological Services offers a Child and Teen Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for young people who need more structured behavioral health support than traditional weekly therapy but do not require inpatient care. The program combines a higher level of therapeutic support with the ability for children and adolescents to remain connected to home, family, school, and daily life. Program availability varies by location and time of year.
