Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a strategic approach to mental health and substance use recovery. Think of it as a high-impact, focused treatment plan that fits into your existing schedule. Unlike inpatient programs, an IOP provides the necessary therapeutic support—individual and group therapy, along with relapse prevention education—without requiring you to put your career or other responsibilities on hold. It’s designed for those who need more than weekly therapy sessions, providing a structured yet flexible framework to address challenges while maintaining your professional momentum.

Typical IOPs use CBT for substance abuse recovery, focusing on coping skills and relapse prevention. Monarch IOP utililizes these modalities as well but what sets it apart is its unique use of ACT, emphasizing experiential learning for deeper emotional awareness and acceptance. This active approach fosters resilience and helps individuals build a meaningful life beyond just staying sober.
Monarch IOP takes a modern approach to treatment by emphasizing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as its core educational modality. Rather than just teaching coping skills, Monarch’s program encourages participants to engage in experiential learning, which involves active participation and hands-on activities that promote deeper emotional awareness and acceptance. This method allows individuals to confront and accept difficult emotions and thoughts instead of avoiding them, helping them build long-term resilience.
The experiential approach of ACT at Monarch proves more beneficial because it encourages participants to actively engage with their recovery process rather than passively learning techniques. The goal is not just to stay sober but to cultivate a life of meaning and purpose, even in the face of challenges.
Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT) combines medication with therapy for substance use disorders, particularly opioid use disorder (OUD). Buprenorphine reduces cravings and prevents withdrawal, while naltrexone blocks opioid effects. These medications alleviate withdrawal symptoms, enabling patients to engage fully in recovery-focused counseling and peer support, thus enhancing treatment efficacy.
MAT and Monarch Recovery Centers:
Monarch Recovery Centers MAT policy strictly adheres to the guidelines set forth by the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) in BHIN-23-054. This policy aligns with HSC Sections 11832.9(c) and 11834.28(c), ensuring comprehensive care for our clients.
At Monarch Recovery, our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) integrates group therapy using various modalities; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for effective treatment and lasting recovery. Within the context of group therapy each modality brings unique benefits.
A. Group therapy offers significant benefits that often match or surpass the effectiveness of individual therapy. The collaborative and supportive environment of group therapy helps diminish the stigma, shame, and isolation frequently associated with addiction, fostering a sense of solidarity and mutual understanding among participants. Through socialization, sharing experiences and strategies, individuals reinforce their journey to recovery, benefiting from the collective wisdom and support of peers facing similar challenges.
CBT helps individuals recognize and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. In group therapy, participants learn to break the cycle of substance abuse by replacing harmful behaviors with positive ones, improving overall well-being.
DBT helps individuals manage emotions and reduce harmful behaviors. Group sessions provide a space to learn and practice emotional regulation and interpersonal skills, fostering a supportive environment for recovery.
At Monarch Recovery Centers, we emphasize the importance of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy – In ACT, mindfulness is used to help individuals increase psychological flexibility – the ability to stay in contact with the present moment and act according to one’s values even in the presence of difficult thoughts and feelings. It is a key component of the therapeutic process, helping individuals to better manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other psychological challenges, challenges found throughout the recovery process.
