Evidence-Based Outpatient Programs
NuLife offers structured outpatient programs designed to provide robust clinical care while allowing you to live at home. Our programs are built on evidence-based therapies, not the 12-Steps, ensuring a modern, personalized approach to your recovery.
Best For: Individuals who require a high level of daily support and structure, often as a step-down from residential care.
Time Commitment: High, approximately 20 hours per week (4 sessions of 5 hours each).
Typical Duration: 12 weeks.
PHP is our most intensive level of outpatient care, providing the structure and therapeutic rigor of an inpatient program during the day. This program is designed to stabilize clients, develop crucial coping skills through therapies like CBT and DBT, and build a strong foundation for long-term recovery before transitioning to a less intensive level of care.
Best For: Individuals who have a stable living environment and need to balance treatment with work, school, or family commitments.
Time Commitment: Medium, approximately 15 hours per week (3 sessions of 5 hours each).
Typical Duration: 16 weeks.
IOP provides substantial therapeutic support while allowing you to practice recovery skills in your real-world environment. This program focuses on reinforcing coping strategies, managing triggers, and integrating recovery principles into your daily routine. It’s an ideal step for those who have completed PHP or who need more support than traditional weekly therapy.
