Our partial hospitalization program is ideal for individuals who need intensive outpatient addiction treatment without requiring overnight residential care. PHP provides structured daily programming that helps people build stability while remaining connected to their families and communities.
Our intensive outpatient program is one of the most common forms of outpatient rehab in Rhode Island. IOP allows individuals to receive comprehensive therapy, relapse prevention education, and recovery support while continuing to work, attend school, or care for family responsibilities.
Our outpatient treatment program provides ongoing clinical support for individuals who have completed PHP or IOP, as well as those who need a lower level of care from the start. Through individual counseling, group therapy, relapse prevention, and continued recovery planning, outpatient addiction treatment helps clients maintain long-term progress while living at home.
Outpatient rehabilitation allows individuals to receive professional addiction treatment while continuing to live at home and remain connected to work, school, and family responsibilities. For many people, outpatient care provides the flexibility they need without sacrificing access to evidence-based therapies, peer support, and individualized treatment planning.
At Bold Steps Rhode Island, every treatment plan is tailored to the individual. Whether someone is recovering from alcohol addiction, opioid use, stimulant use, or another substance use disorder, our team provides coordinated care that addresses both addiction and mental health whenever appropriate.
