Outpatient Program (OP) at Connections Behavioral Health
Our Outpatient Program (OP) at Connections Behavioral Health provides ongoing clinical support for individuals who are well on their way to independent recovery. This level of care is ideal for those who have completed more intensive treatment, such as PHP or IOP, and are transitioning into full autonomy while still benefiting from therapeutic engagement.

Who is Outpatient Treatment For?
Outpatient treatment is typically suited for individuals who:
- Are working full-time, attending school, or balancing personal responsibilities while maintaining their recovery.
- Have reunited with family and are adjusting to life at home while reinforcing healthy boundaries and relationships.
- Are still learning balance in recovery and may need clinical support, relapse prevention strategies, or structured check-ins.
- Continue to engage in individual counseling, peer support groups, or mental health treatment alongside OP.
- May be at risk for relapse but do not require a higher level of care like PHP or IOP.
