About Standard Outpatient

Standard outpatient treatment offers flexible recovery support while allowing you to maintain daily responsibilities. At Penn Spine and Rehab, we help you find outpatient programs that provide effective care on a schedule that works for your life.

What Standard Outpatient Includes

Typical outpatient treatment involves:

  • Weekly individual therapy sessions (1-2 per week)
  • Group therapy or support group participation
  • Medication management when appropriate
  • Drug testing to support accountability
  • Case management and referrals to community resources

When Outpatient Is Appropriate

Standard outpatient works best for individuals with mild to moderate substance use disorders, strong family or social support, stable housing, and the ability to manage daily responsibilities while in treatment. It's also common as continuing care after completing IOP or residential treatment.

Making Outpatient Successful

Success in outpatient treatment requires personal commitment and a supportive environment. Many individuals combine outpatient therapy with 12-step meetings or SMART Recovery for additional support. If outpatient isn't providing enough structure, stepping up to intensive outpatient may be recommended.
