Texas Children's Intensive Outpatient Program

The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides intensive, evidence-based, and outcomes-driven behavioral health care to adolescents ages 12 through 17-years-old struggling with emotional and behavioral issues that lead to challenges in daily life. Difficulties may include but are not limited to suicidal thoughts, self-injurious behavior, anxiety, mood difficulties, impulsive behavior, and family conflict. The program is best suited for adolescents that are stepping down from an inpatient behavioral health facility or stepping up from traditional weekly outpatient psychotherapy.
