Outpatient rehab (OP) at Inspire Recovery is a transitional phase of care that caters to clients who have already completed more intensive levels of addiction treatment. While many people think of outpatient as therapy for those living at home, our clients in OP usually remain in sober housing and are either working, attending school, or gradually resuming daily responsibilities.

Inspire Recovery seeks to offer the support and structure our clients need to overcome addiction and grow into the fullest version of themselves. Our Outpatient Rehab Program is one meaningful step on that journey—providing focused care, connection, and accountability while allowing clients to stay engaged with their daily lives.

What is Outpatient Drug Rehab?

Outpatient drug rehab is a flexible form of addiction treatment that does not require staying overnight at a facility although some folks live in sober houses. Many people drop to OP or outpatient rehab or treatment after finishing IOP. With this level of care, you attend scheduled sessions with a counselor or therapist at a clinic or treatment center. This setup makes it easier to get support while still managing your daily responsibilities, like work, school, or family. Outpatient rehab could be just individual therapy, group therapy or both.

Many outpatient rehab programs offer flexible timing for sessions, so as to fit your schedule. Depending on your needs, you might attend therapy one  time a week, with each session lasting about one hour. If you also attend a group that will also last usually last about one hour. The goal is to help you work through addiction while staying connected to your life and support system outside of treatment.

Here is What to Expect When You Begin Outpatient Rehab

Inspire Recovery’s outpatient rehab (OP) is typically the final step in a full continuum of care. Most clients in this phase have already completed a partial hospitalization program (PHP) or an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and continue living in sober housing while gradually returning to work or school.

If you are new to Inspire Recovery, you will begin with a clinical assessment that reviews your mental health, substance use history, and current lifestyle. This helps the team design a plan that supports your long-term recovery with minimal disruption to your daily routine. Clients who have been with us during the more intensive levels of care will move seamlessly into outpatient rehab as a part of their ongoing care.

Outpatient care at Inspire usually includes one weekly therapy session or a therapy session plus one group session, each lasting about an hour. The focus here is continued support and relapse prevention as you transition into independent living.

What Therapies Does Outpatient Rehab Offer?

Outpatient treatment programs usually offer a combination of therapies and services designed to promote your recovery. Here’s what you can typically expect:

Individual Counseling

In private sessions with a licensed therapist, you will dig into the root causes of your addiction, learn coping skills, and tackle personal challenges. Evidence-backed therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Dialectical behavior therapy help change unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors.

Group Therapy

Group sessions connect you with others facing similar struggles and traumas. Sharing your story, getting support, and hearing others’ experiences can be powerful and help you feel part of a community.

Holistic Therapies 

Inspire Recovery outpatient rehab programs include mindfulness meditation, yoga, and art therapy. These therapies help reduce stress, improve emotional health, and make your recovery experience more balanced and fulfilling.

What is the Structure of an Outpatient Program? Is Drug Detox Included?

Outpatient programs follow a set schedule of treatment sessions each week, but they don’t offer 24/7 care like inpatient rehab does. Instead, you’ll attend therapy and group sessions on specific days and for a set number of hours, usually a one or twice a week. This setup is often recommended for people with mild to moderate symptoms of addiction or for those who’ve already completed a more intensive program and need ongoing support.

Drug or alcohol detox is not a part of outpatient treatment. Detox is typically handled in an inpatient or medically managed setting before starting outpatient rehab due to the risk of severe withdrawal symptoms.
