Outpatient Program
Treating addiction is a complex process that requires different treatment methods and therapies to address the physical and psychological aspects of this mental health disorder. While some people will require 24/7 support through a residential program, others can begin recovery through an outpatient program while continuing to live at home. This program is only for those who can abstain from drugs or alcohol with minimal supervision and can commit to daily therapy sessions.
At Evoke Wellness in Coconut Creek, we welcome men and women from all walks of life who are ready to stop abusing prescription opioids, alcohol, heroin, meth, or other addictive substances. Our treatment programs use proven therapeutic and medicinal therapies that focus on reducing withdrawal symptoms and teaching patients new coping skills for ignoring their triggers and cravings.

What Is an Outpatient Program?
An outpatient program is a type of treatment program that supports people with substance use disorders, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorders, and other serious mental health illnesses. Outpatient treatment programs consist of two separate programs; a partial hospitalization program (PHP) and an intensive outpatient program (IOP). Both programs serve a specific purpose in the recovery process and will improve a person’s chances of avoiding a relapse.
A partial hospitalization program is a transitional period from an inpatient program to outpatient treatment. This program lasts 2-3 weeks and supports you while you adjust to living at home after several weeks or months of living in a treatment center. An intensive outpatient program follows PHP and is a starting point for those with less severe symptoms. IOP continues therapy sessions and medical support for several hours a week for up to 12-16 weeks.
Addiction is a life-long illness where symptoms can reappear at any time. At Evoke Wellness, we offer outpatient treatment programs for people who want to continue therapy until they feel confident in maintaining their sobriety, no matter how difficult life gets.
How Can an Outpatient Program in Coconut Creek Aid in Your Recovery?
There are many physical and psychological benefits of enrolling in an outpatient program for men and women struggling with controlling their substance abuse. It teaches them healthy coping skills for processing difficult or troubling memories or emotions and how to prevent future relapses. Here are just a few ways that an outpatient program in Coconut Creek can benefit your addiction recovery:
Behavioral and Holistic Therapies
PHP and IOP use a mix of behavioral and holistic therapies that have a strong track record for treating addiction and other mental health disorders. Talk therapy is one of the best ways for patients to work through the reasons behind the abuse and find new ways to stop their addictive behaviors. The best behavioral therapies for treating substance use disorders include:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
- Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
- Motivational interviewing (MI)
- Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
Treatment programs also use a wide mix of holistic therapies to build healthy life skills that include nutrition education, animal-assisted therapy, journaling, music therapy, and other forms of self-expression.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
To ease withdrawal symptoms, treatment programs use FDA-approved medications that are very beneficial in reducing physical withdrawal symptoms and cravings for more drugs or alcohol. Medical staff will administer medications and monitor each patient for any adverse reactions to the medication. As their symptoms begin to fade, they will slowly reduce the amount of medications until they are no longer necessary.
Rebuilding Relationships
An important step in the recovery process is to restore broken relationships with parents, siblings, spouses, and children. Therapists will work with all family members to resolve any lingering issues caused by the abuse and help everyone move forward. They will learn all about the dangers of addiction and how to create a stable and supportive home environment.
