A Safe Space For Healing

Consistent, Skills-Based Support for Teens Balancing Treatment and Daily Life

Portum Wellness & Recovery’s Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers focused, weekly therapeutic support for teens who require more structure than traditional outpatient therapy but do not need inpatient care.

Our IOP is designed to help adolescents develop healthier coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and build life skills — while remaining connected to home, school, and daily life.

What it is

What Is the Adolescent IOP?

Portum’s Adolescent IOP is designed for teens — typically ages 13–17 — who need more consistent therapeutic support than weekly outpatient therapy, but do not require the full-day structure of Partial Care or inpatient treatment.

IOP is especially effective for teens navigating anxiety, depression, trauma responses, mood changes, behavioral concerns, or co-occurring conditions.
