Outpatient Program
Overview
Welcome to our Outpatient Treatment Program
Casa Palmera is excited to offer an Outpatient Program for our local community. This program is designed to help participants receive accelerated treatment while still participating in their daily responsibilities such as work or school. Participants attend activities Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings. Activities will include group therapy, and a family component.
Casa Palmera provides comprehensive outpatient services for those patients who are not at medical risk and are able to participate successfully in regularly scheduled outpatient visits. The vision of Casa Palmera's Intensive Outpatient Program, or IOP, is to provide treatment that empowers you to function more independently and responsibly, while arming you with the skills and abilities needed to lead a successful and healthy life.

• A curriculum design will drive the educational component covering various educational
group topics. On the process end, it is very helpful to have participants completing assignments
that they then share in group to receive peer support and feedback
• Each participant will do the assignment during the course of their treatment to narrow the focus of
what they learn. Additionally, the therapist can assign "custom assignments" as needed to be processed with the group
