Our IOP Levels of Care — Adult and Teen
We run separate adult and teen IOP tracks at our Glendora facility, with each program designed around the clinical and developmental needs of the population it serves. IOP at Glendora is positioned within a full continuum — clients who need more structure can step up to our adult Partial Hospitalization Program, and graduating clients step down into our Aftercare Program to protect long-term recovery.
Adult IOP — Day, Evening, and Weekend Schedules
Our adult IOP runs morning, afternoon, and evening sessions across the week, plus Saturday programming. Clients typically attend 9–15 hours of clinical programming per week across individual therapy, group therapy, family sessions, and psychoeducation. The schedule is designed for working adults, parents, students, and anyone who needs serious treatment without leaving home or career behind.
Teen IOP — After-School and Weekend Programming
Adolescents have their own dedicated track. Our teen Intensive Outpatient Program runs in evening and weekend slots, with content developmentally adapted for teens and family involvement built in from day one. We also offer a teen Partial Hospitalization Program for higher-acuity cases, and a step-down teen outpatient program for graduates of higher levels of care.
What We Treat at Our Glendora IOP
Our IOP treats substance use disorders and the mental health conditions that commonly travel with them. A client primarily managing alcohol use looks different from one managing fentanyl recovery, and treatment for someone with co-occurring depression or trauma looks different again — so we build personalized plans around the specific substances and conditions involved.
We provide IOP treatment for the full range of substances we cover on-site, including heroin, prescription opioids, cocaine, crack cocaine, crystal meth, Xanax, Valium, benzodiazepines, marijuana, MDMA, PCP, and Suboxone dependence. You can explore our full list of addiction treatment services for substance-specific details.
Integrated Mental Health Support
A large share of adults entering IOP for substance use are also managing depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, or ADHD — sometimes diagnosed, often not. Treating substance use without addressing the underlying mental health condition is one of the most common drivers of relapse, which is why every client in our IOP has access to integrated psychiatric care and dual-diagnosis-trained clinicians through our mental health treatment program. Clients managing specific co-occurring conditions like bipolar disorder or depression work with clinicians experienced in treating both sides of the diagnosis at once.
Therapies Used in Our IOP Program
Our clinical team draws on evidence-based therapies and matches the combination to each client’s presentation and goals. A typical IOP plan blends individual therapy, group therapy, and family sessions with specialized modalities:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — identifies and restructures the thought patterns driving substance use
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — builds emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness
- Individual Therapy — one-on-one work with a licensed clinician throughout the program
- Group Therapy — peer-supported recovery work, including process groups and psychoeducation
- Family Therapy — rebuilding trust, communication, and healthy boundaries with the people closest to recovery
- Art Therapy — creative-process work for expression, grounding, and trauma integration
- Yoga Therapy — somatic and breath-based work to regulate the nervous system in recovery
- Relapse Prevention Skills — practical coping, trigger identification, and long-term recovery planning
What to Expect — Your First 7 Days
Calling a treatment center for the first time can feel like the hardest step. Here’s exactly what happens when you reach out to Glendora Recovery Center.
- Initial call. Speak with an admissions coordinator who will listen to your situation, answer questions, and walk you through what IOP looks like. Calls are confidential and typically run 15–30 minutes.
- Insurance verification. Complimentary benefits check so you know what’s covered before committing to anything. Usually completed the same day.
- Clinical assessment. Intake appointment with a clinician covering substance use history, mental health, medical concerns, family dynamics, and treatment goals.
- Personalized treatment plan. Your clinician designs a plan based on the assessment — level of care, schedule, therapy mix, psychiatric support if needed.
- Start IOP. Most clients begin programming within a few days of intake, sometimes the same day for urgent cases.
- First-week check-in. At the end of week one, your clinician reviews what’s working and adjusts the plan with you.
- Ongoing care plan. As you stabilize, we plan your step-down, connect you with aftercare and alumni support, and coordinate long-term psychiatric care where needed.

Why Choose Glendora Recovery Center for IOP
A Full Adult and Teen Continuum Under One Roof
We run adult and teen tracks for PHP, IOP, and outpatient care at the same Glendora facility, with the same clinical team coordinating across levels. Families with multiple members in treatment, or clients stepping up or down between levels, don’t have to start over with a new provider. Learn more about our team and approach.
Day, Evening, and Weekend Programming
IOP only works if you can actually attend. We run morning, afternoon, evening, and Saturday sessions specifically so working adults, parents, and students can complete treatment without losing their job, custody, or school year.
Court-Approved and Justice-System-Coordinated
Our court liaison and case-management team handle the documentation, attendance reporting, and agency communication that court-mandated clients need.
A Family-Style Environment
Glendora Recovery Center is intentionally small and family-style. Clients are known by name and treated as individuals — not as a case number on a shift handoff sheet.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?
An Intensive Outpatient Program is a structured level of addiction and mental health treatment that delivers 9–20 hours of clinical programming per week without requiring clients to live at the treatment facility. IOP typically includes individual therapy, group therapy, family sessions, psychoeducation, and psychiatric support when needed. It sits between Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and standard outpatient care on the continuum.
How long is IOP at Glendora Recovery Center?
We offer 30, 60, and 90-day IOP tracks. The right length depends on the clinical assessment, the substances or conditions involved, and how a client is progressing through the program. Length of stay is reviewed regularly with the clinician — staying longer when needed, or stepping down to Aftercare when ready.
Does insurance cover IOP at Glendora Recovery Center?
We accept most major HMO and PPO insurance plans, and we complete a complimentary verification of benefits before admission. We do not currently accept Medi-Cal. The fastest way to know what’s covered is to verify your insurance through our intake team.
What’s the difference between IOP and PHP?
Partial Hospitalization (PHP) is a higher level of care, typically running 25–30 hours per week — closer to a full-time treatment commitment. IOP is less intensive at 9–20 hours per week and is designed for clients who can manage daily life (work, school, family) while in treatment. Some clients start in PHP and step down to IOP; others begin directly in IOP.
Can I keep working or going to school during IOP?
Yes — that’s a core reason IOP exists. We offer day, evening, and weekend sessions specifically so adults can keep their job and students can stay in school. Many of our IOP clients work full-time throughout the program.
Do you offer IOP for teens?
Yes. Our teen IOP is a separate track designed around adolescent development, family involvement, school coordination, and (when applicable) court involvement. The teen IOP meets in the evening and weekend slots.
Do you treat dual diagnosis and co-occurring conditions in IOP?
Yes. Most of our IOP clients are managing both substance use and a co-occurring mental health condition — depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, or ADHD are the most common. Our clinical team is trained in integrated dual-diagnosis care through our mental health treatment program, and our therapy mix is designed around treating both at once.
Do you accept court-ordered IOP referrals?
Yes. We are a long-standing court-approved provider for IOP, drug diversion, probation-related treatment, DCFS cases, and J.O.I.N. referrals. Our court liaison coordinates attendance documentation and agency communication.
