Recovery that fits your life
Samarpan’s Addiction IOP is designed for individuals with problematic alcohol and/or substance use who have professional or family commitments that prevent them from entering a residential program. The IOP provides all of the clinical advantages of a residential program in a community setting — and is also an ideal step-down option for those completing inpatient care.
Please note: this is an abstinence-based program. All participants must commit to sobriety and are subject to regular drug and alcohol testing throughout.
This program suits motivated adults who want structured, clinically led support for substance use — without stepping away from daily life:
- Struggling with problematic alcohol or substance use
- Unable to commit to a residential program due to work or family
- Stepping down from inpatient care and wanting ongoing structured support
- Motivated to achieve and maintain sobriety in a group setting
- Looking for internationally accredited, evidence-based addiction treatment
- Ready to commit to regular attendance and abstinence for 8 weeks
