Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) Services
Available virtually across Maryland and through our programs at Crossroads Connect & Westminster Recovery.
Real challenges deserve real support.
When you’re struggling with substance use or co-occurring mental health issues, life can feel overwhelming. You may be holding it together on the outside—managing work, family, or school—yet inside you feel exhausted, stuck, or afraid you’ll never break free from the cycle.
These struggles don’t mean something is wrong with you.
They mean you’re human—and you don’t have to go through it alone.
Maybe you are thinking to yourself:
“I want my old life back.”
“Using isn’t fun anymore — it’s just maintenance.”
“I’m scared to ask for help, and more scared not to.”
Who we help:
Our IOP program supports a wide range of individuals—youth to late-age adults, from “Yale to jail.”
Whether you’re a student, a parent, working in a professional role, or navigating unemployment, you may share a common desire:
“To find stability and peace of mind”
“To regain control over your life”
“To live without relying on substances to cope”
What you may be feeling:
People entering IOP often describe feeling:
Overwhelmed and exhausted
Anxious, ashamed, or hopeless
Stuck in a cycle they can’t escape
Isolated, fearful of judgment, or disconnected from loved ones
Caught between craving relief and wanting long-term change
At night, many lie awake worrying about work, finances, health, and whether things will ever get better.
What you want most:
Deep down, people entering IOP often long for:
Freedom from the cycle of use and relapse
Emotional peace, balance, and stability
Connection, purpose, and direction
The ability to live authentically and without shame
How therapy helps:
With support, lasting change is possible.
Our IOP services can help you:
Develop healthy coping tools to manage stress and cravings
Rebuild relationships and trust
Regain confidence and control in your daily life
Create balance between responsibilities and personal growth
Build a sustainable recovery plan that truly works
Why getting help matters:
When substance use and mental health struggles go unaddressed, the costs are high:
Strained relationships
Diminished self-esteem and motivation
Worsening health and increased isolation
Feeling stuck in cycles that are hard to break alone
For many, the turning point comes when they realize they’ve been carrying heavy emotions for too long—or when someone they care about urges them to reach out for support.
