Overview
Ongoing support as you build independence
Outpatient care is for people who are motivated to stay sober, improve their mental health, or both, and need treatment that bends to a busy schedule.
You meet with our clinical team for counseling, education and support, and your schedule can change as your needs change. It is often the final step after PHP or IOP, and a strong starting point for people who need focused, ongoing therapy.
OP may be a good fit if you:
- Are stepping down from IOP and want continued support
- Have a full schedule with school, work or family
- Want individualized therapy with a consistent clinician
- Are motivated and ready to practice skills on your own

How often do OP sessions happen?
Most clients attend one to three 90-minute sessions a week. Your schedule is built around your availability and can change over time.
Who are the therapists?
All of our therapists are master's level or higher and licensed in Colorado as Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC) or Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW).
Can I start with Outpatient, or do I need PHP or IOP first?
Most clients start in IOP, or in Day Treatment (PHP) once it opens in December 2026, and continue into Outpatient as they build independence. Our assessment helps us recommend the right starting point for you.
Is OP only for substance use?
No. Outpatient care supports substance use, mental health, or both.
