A Flexible Option for Healing and Growth

Ocean View’s IOP helps those who need a less intensive level of care than an inpatient treatment program. Our care team includes medical doctors, nurses, mental health professionals, recreation therapists, and social workers. We provide evidence-based treatment in various modalities, including art, pet, and group therapy.

Our IOP treats mood disorders, including bipolar disorder, as well as other mental health disorders. We understand you have different treatment needs than others. That’s why our mental health programs are structured to last several weeks or months. While you’re with us at our private Los Angeles County treatment center, you will receive quality care without rushing. Our focus is on providing quality care.

How Our Program Differs

We know you’re different from anyone else, so we offer acute mental health care that meets your unique needs. With Ocean View, you’ll experience stabilization-focused care that provides structure and support without stigma. Your input is essential as our medical and mental health staff build partnerships with your medical and behavioral health services to ensure a smooth transition from our care to your daily life. We do this by providing comprehensive mental health services accessible to everyone. 

  • On-site Team of Psychiatrists: Our on-site psychiatrists provide medication stabilization, monitoring, and management. Your well-being is vital throughout your stay in our inpatient mental health crisis facility and our outpatient services. 
  • Case Management & Aftercare Support: Case management begins when you’re admitted to either our inpatient or outpatient program. Our case managers and social workers ensure you have a safe place to go, whether that’s housing or a facility, once you leave us.
  • Transportation Coordination Provided: We offer transportation services coordinated with a trusted provider that takes you to and from inpatient intake, discharge destinations, as well as transportation to/from our on-site outpatient programs. *Transportation is provided to patients within a 50-mile radius
  • Stabilization for Managing Psychiatric Symptoms: Ocean View provides 24/7 inpatient psychiatric care. We also have outpatient treatment programs.
  • Patient Resource Network: Transitioning from inpatient or outpatient treatment can be overwhelming. That’s why we have an opt-in patient follow-up option. You don’t have to manage your symptoms alone.

Transitioning From Inpatient/PHP to IOP

Ocean View offers all levels of mental health crisis stabilization care. Not everyone starts their healing journey at the IOP level. If you started at a higher level of care, you will work with your case manager to develop a plan to transition from a higher level of care, such as a partial hospitalization program (PHP), to a lower level of care, such as an IOP. We will guide you through your journey by tailoring your treatment plan to reflect your current progress. 

Continuing Care Without Interruption

Your care at Ocean View will follow you as you transition from one level of care to another. Your care team will be with you as you transition, so you can confidently move from one stage to another in your recovery journey. Throughout your time with us, you will have the same warmth and respect you had at a different level of care.

Ocean View’s IOP: A Holistic and Personalized Approach

When you contact us for treatment or are referred to us by your healthcare or mental health provider, we provide personalized care. You will discover how your treatment is tailored to meet your needs. Our medical and therapeutic professionals take time to get to know you. We can discuss your goals, health care, and mental health needs. Once we understand your personality, goals, and diagnosis, we work with you to create a supportive and welcoming environment. 

Integrated Care Planning

Integrative care planning isn’t limited to one methodology or technique. Instead, a skilled psychologist or psychiatrist draws on a range of methods to tailor your treatment. Drawing on various evidence-based and holistic therapies is an effective way to adapt treatment. The professionals at Ocean View will work with you to design a care plan that reflects your unique needs.

Integrative therapy can benefit those diagnosed with:
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Stress
  • Co-occurring disorders
The benefits of integrative therapy include:
  • Individualization of treatment 
  • Flexibility 
  • Adaptability 
  • Holistic

Our Intensive Outpatient Program Features & Aftercare

Ocean View’s IOP is designed to help you successfully attend psychoeducation sessions while remaining active in your life. The flexibility of living at home and working helps you adjust to your environment while receiving compassionate, comprehensive mental health care. You will attend several sessions throughout the week, learning life and coping skills. 

We take a compassionate approach to providing evidence-based care. Our program offers three daily opportunities to attend psychoeducation groups, engage in holistic therapies, receive nutritious food, and learn to regulate your mental health. We want you to succeed and feel a part of Ocean View’s community as you experience positive growth and change.

Program specifics include:
  • Four group sessions a day that meet five days a week
  • Sessions that include a psychoeducational group led by a social worker and a therapeutic recreation support session led by a recreation therapist
  • Case management
  • Snacks and lunch
  • Developing focused coping skills

Community Reintegration

Connecting with others in the community once you complete IOP is vital. You’ll be able to work with your case manager to identify support groups and networks in your area. They serve as a protection when you’re faced with difficulties. Support networks also have a positive effect on the mind and body. They enhance well-being by enabling socialization and connection with others who understand you.

Continued Medication Management Support With Our PHP and IOP

After your acute psychosis symptoms and medication are stabilized, you will transition to a lower level of care, and you will receive medication management services. Both our PHP and IOP provide continued medication management under the care of our psychiatric team.

Mental Health Relapse Prevention

An integral part of your IOP is building healthy skills to prevent relapse. Relapse prevention is a method for identifying and avoiding high-risk behaviors and situations. For example, you will develop a plan to address dangerous behaviors associated with anxiety, depression, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Your relapse prevention plan will reflect your specific mental health diagnosis. The skills you will rely on are the holistic or behavior-based coping and stress management techniques.

Aftercare & Opt-In Patient Follow-Up

Your aftercare plan isn’t developed as you prepare to return to your life outside of us. When you first create your treatment plan, you start planning your transition back into the real world. Our personalized approach includes:
  • Case manager support
  • Outpatient transitions
  • Housing or facility placements
  • Community support referrals
Our Opt-In Patient Follow-Up (Patient Resource Network) continues to provide support and encouragement after you transition back into your life.
