The adult intensive outpatient program (IOP) has group therapy if you need more than weekly therapy. This is also a good program to help with the transition back to your life. This program also meets five days a week Monday through Friday, but it’s from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. If you need to attend treatment from home, you can opt for the adult virtual intensive outpatient program which meets Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Medically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
Intensive Outpatient
Parkwood Behavioral Health System’s Intensive Outpatient Programs consist of group therapy for patients who abuse or are dependent on alcohol or drugs, or patients who have psychiatric issues or patients who have both substance abuse issues and psychiatric issues. Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)is designed to meet the needs of adults, 18 years and older, who are experiencing problems with addictive disease and/or psychiatric symptoms, but are not in acute situations. The program provides intensive treatment while adults maintain their jobs and family obligations.
Inpatient
Acute Inpatient Care offers a safe, structured environment with treatment administered by a multi-disciplinary team of mental health professionals. Therapeutic components may include individual, group and family therapy, and activity therapy (offered for children, adolescents and adults). Residential Treatment Program (Adolescents only) is provided when an adolescent needs a longer, more stable environment than provided by inpatient care. This option provides a safe living environment for adolescents ages 12-17 so they can receive professional behavioral healthcare in a caring group setting. Programs are held 5 days per week, from 5:30 pm – 8:30 pm. There are two tracks available – one for patients with psychiatric issues and one for patients with substance abuse/dependence issues.
Intervention Services
Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.
12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
Aftercare Support
Discharge planning begins the first day of admission; they keep their eye on the goal during the whole process. While each patient begins to address his or her goals and family members participate in the process of change, the therapist coordinates the transition from treatment to home. Weekend passes allow residents and their families the opportunity to prepare for discharge. Issues that arise on passes are discussed in family, group, and individual therapy.
Partial Hospitalization Program
Recommended as a flexible and intensive addiction treatment option, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) is often used as an alternative to inpatient rehab. With daily sessions typically lasting up to six hours for five days a week, PHP treatment provides evidence-based therapies and medical care while allowing you to return home every evening. The length of PHP treatment varies based on your needs, but it averages 90 days.

Treatment
Alcoholism
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug Addiction
For those seeking help with addiction, a drug rehab in Mississippi offers the necessary care to achieve long-term recovery. Options include inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and long-term drug rehab in Mississippi.
Dual Diagnosis
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Mental Health and Substance Abuse
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid Addiction
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Clinical Services

You'll also attend group training sessions where you can start applying the skills you're learning in treatment.
Creative Arts Therapy
Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.
Family Therapy
At Parkwood Behavioral Health System, family involvement is a vital part of their treatment process. Because may patients return home, it is important that family members become actively involved in the therapeutic process. Their counselors and staff educate family members on the patient’s treatment goals and needs. Just as importantly, their counselors assist family members in working through their own feelings about the process.
Group Therapy
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Motivational Interviewing
Counselors who apply motivational interviewing take on the roles of listening and reflecting. Their goal is to facilitate conversation about change and commitment to change. They offer support and seek to empower the client to make changes in their life.

Nutrition Therapy
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
Life Skills
Often, substance use and mental health disorders weaken basic life skills. This makes daily functioning a challenge and can lead to a cycle of addiction. To help you break free from this cycle, drug rehab programs include integrated life skills training which helps you redevelop or strengthen the life skills you need for success.
