About Gateway Counseling Services – Spokane
The intensive outpatient program (IOP) provides a deferred-prosecution treatment option, along with assessments, recovering maintenance services, and individual therapy. Intensive outpatient meets at a higher frequency than traditional outpatient services. Typically, clients meet three times per week for three hours at a time. If it is determined that a person needs a more intensive level of care, he or she may be referred to a treatment center that can offer alcohol and drug rehab services or mental health counseling services with more structure. Examples include partial hospitalization services, inpatient treatment, and residential treatment.
Once a person completes the intensive outpatient program, it is common to step down into an aftercare phase of treatment. Clients can choose from ongoing therapy, self-help groups, and community-based programming.
Gateway Counseling Services accepts most insurance plans, including United Healthcare, Beacon, Magellan, ComPsych, Aetna, Amerigroup, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and more. Out of network benefits may vary, so it’s important to verify coverage with your provider prior to starting treatment.
