Adult Intensive Outpatient Programs

Del Amo Behavioral Health System’s Adult Psychiatric Program is ready to meet each patient where they are mentally and emotionally, and with compassion. Our goal is to help our patients acquire the tools they need to navigate any mental health issues they may be experiencing including depression, bipolar or other mental health disorders.

Why choose outpatient psychiatric treatment?

The adult psychiatric outpatient treatment programs at Del Amo Behavioral Health System are designed for adults who can benefit from treatment services within a highly structured and supervised setting, but do not necessarily need inpatient care. Del Amo offers both a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), in addition to a Trauma Resilience program.

We treat a variety of mental health issues including but not limited to:

  • Depression
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Schizophrenia

Our multidisciplinary team of professionals develops an individualized treatment plan for each patient according to their needs and diagnosis. We offer a variety of mental health services for a number of behavioral health issues, including outpatient bipolar disorder treatment (that can cause drastic mood swings) at our behavioral health center, as well as help for those who struggle with depression at our depression treatment center.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

The Intensive Outpatient Program at Del Amo Behavioral Health System is available 3 days a week from 9:00am – 12:00pm and a great transition for individuals stepping down from the Partial Hospitalization Program into a less structured setting, or for individuals who need more structured treatment than is offered in individual therapy. Tailored to the client’s specific needs, the program meets three days a week for three hours per day and is offered in person or through a virtual option.

Core features of IOP include:

  • Group therapy with an emphasis on:
    • Symptom Management
    • Medication Education
    • Life Skills
    • Self-Esteem
    • Assertion Skills
    • Support Systems
    • Processing Feelings
    • Relapse Prevention
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy
  • Continental breakfast and lunch served daily
  • Medication Management
  • Psychiatric Case Management
  • Community Reintegration
  • Aftercare Planning

At Del Amo Behavioral Health System, located in Carson, CA, we know that the end of treatment doesn’t mean the end of the patient’s journey. Post-treatment care is crucial to the recovery process. That’s why we work closely with the patient, as well as their referral source, family and community to develop an effective aftercare plan post-psychiatric hospital stay.
