Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Our IOP helps clients better understand their substance use, identify triggers, strengthen relapse-prevention skills, and develop healthier patterns that support long-term recovery.

Outpatient Program (OP)

Our Outpatient Program (OP) offers continued support for anyone stepping down from a more intensive level of care or who would benefit from ongoing treatment with greater flexibility. This level of care combines therapeutic guidance with practical recovery planning.

OP focuses on helping you rebuild stability, improve relationships, manage stressors, and continue to make progress in recovery while maintaining work, school, family, and daily responsibilities.

Recovery Coaching

Recovery coaching gives you practical, one-on-one support from a trained coach who fully understands the recovery process. This style of coaching can be used on its own or alongside other clinical treatments, depending on your needs.

This makes it a helpful option if you are new to recovery, stepping down from an intensive program, or looking for extra support outside of formal sessions. Your coach will meet with you one-on-one to set goals, create a plan, build accountability, and tackle new challenges.

Our Approach to Addiction Treatment

At Mountainside NYC, treatment is built around the understanding that recovery involves more than addressing substance use alone.

This program is designed to help families better understand addiction, rebuild trust, improve communication, establish healthier boundaries, and support their loved one’s recovery while also caring for their own healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does outpatient addiction treatment include?

Outpatient treatment lets you live at home while getting help for drug or alcohol use. At Mountainside NYC, treatment includes group therapy, one-on-one counseling, recovery coaching, specialized programs, and support groups. You come in for sessions during the week and continue your everyday life while building strong sober skills.

What is the difference between OP and IOP?

Both OP (Outpatient Program) and IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program) help you learn about addiction and build relapse-prevention skills.

  • IOP: More treatment hours each week and more structure.
  • OP: Fewer hours with more schedule flexibility.

Your clinical team will help you choose the level of care that fits your needs.

How long does an IOP program usually last?

Most IOP programs last 8–12 weeks, depending on your schedule, progress, and personal goals. Some people stay longer if they need extra support. Your care team adjusts your timeline based on what helps you the most.

Does insurance cover outpatient rehab in NYC?

Most private insurance plans cover outpatient addiction treatment. Many plans also cover therapy, recovery coaching, and medication-assisted treatment. The best way to know your exact benefits is to verify your insurance with our team. We can check what’s covered in just a few minutes.

Do you offer virtual or telehealth addiction treatment?

Yes. You can attend therapy and coaching sessions from home through our secure telehealth platform. This is a great option if you want private, flexible support without traveling to the center

Is outpatient treatment right for me or my loved one?

Outpatient care is a good fit if you:

  • Need support but don’t require 24/7 supervision
  • Want to keep working or going to school
  • Benefit from therapy, coaching, and group support
  • Prefer staying connected to daily life while building sober habits

If you need a higher level of care, we can help you transition to detox or residential treatment.

What specialized programs do you offer?

We offer dedicated tracks for:

  • Young adults
  • Teens
  • Working professionals
  • LGBTQ+ community

These programs address specific challenges, pressures, and life experiences that impact recovery.

What is recovery coaching?

Recovery coaching pairs you with a trained coach who helps you stay accountable every day. Your coach supports you with planning, goal setting, healthy routines, and early-warning relapse prevention. It’s a hands-on way to keep steady as you build a sober life.

Do you offer support for families?

Yes. Our Family Wellness program helps loved ones learn about addiction, repair communication, and build healthier boundaries. Families can also attend free support groups and workshops at the NYC Recovery Hub.
