Evening Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Evening IOP gives clients structured addiction treatment while still allowing them to work, attend school, and care for family. This level of care is ideal for people who need strong support but do not require residential treatment. It also works well for those stepping down from inpatient care and wanting continued accountability. At Pacific Shores Recovery, our evening program provides consistent therapy and a flexible schedule that fits real life.
