Sierra Tucson offers outpatient programming. Individuals have the ability to slowly transition back to their home environments while still benefiting from education, support and encouragement through different therapeutic interventions.
Where Change Continues
Sierra Tucson’s Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) services are designed to help participants identify and live by their values in recovery and have accountability after residential care. In addition, the programs include the ability to receive psychoeducation that helps participants implement skills and return to their daily lives more grounded and oriented to the present moment.
Levels of Care
Located within our Copper Sky Building, the Sierra Tucson Outpatient Program serves participants who have mood disorders, unresolved trauma and co-occurring disorders. It is available for those who are stepping down from residential treatment, as well as those within the community. Participants complete a minimum of two weeks in the PHP prior to transitioning to the IOP for a minimum of four weeks.
Therapy
Therapies are offered to residents based on a customized plan created by Sierra Tucson’s on-site clinicians and doctors. View a complete list of therapy options by clicking here.
Common Questions
How long is it?
We recommend two weeks at the PHP level of care and then four weeks at the IOP level of care. This is a general recommendation, and sometimes it may be different depending on the person and individual circumstances.
How many people in a group?
We currently have eight to 10 people in a process group, and sometimes the two groups will be together for PHP groups.
How frequently do I see a psychiatric provider and my primary therapist for individual sessions?
Once a week for each while in PHP. In IOP, the psychiatric provider is on an as-needed basis, and the primary therapist is once a week.
I am on medication-assisted treatment and wonder if I can continue that in your program?
If this is something you started in residential or have been doing prior to admission to our program, it is something we can continue while in our PHP/IOP.
