The first step is a simple phone call to see if our IOP program in Arlington is a good fit and to get scheduled. The call can be as short as 2 minutes, or you can talk as long as you need to get your questions answered. The first appointment is a medical and mental health assessment. It might sound boring, but the baseline gives you and your addiction treatment team insight into how to help you feel better quickly. It also ensures insurance covers your IOP program.
