Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) in Frisco, TX

IOP is therapy you attend on set days, with no overnight stay. You get group and one-on-one counseling three times a week while living at home. At our Frisco clinic, all sessions are online in the evening, from 5:30 to 8:45.

Our Frisco IOP runs entirely online in the evening, Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 5:30 PM to 8:45 PM. We designed it that way for working professionals and families in Collin County. Evening virtual sessions let you keep your job and your routine while still getting nine hours of counseling a week. If you need daytime or in-person sessions, we can point you to another Symetria clinic.

You attend three virtual sessions a week: Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 5:30 PM to 8:45 PM. Each session blends group therapy, individual counseling, psychoeducation, and skills practice. Outside of group counseling, you can schedule unlimited one-on-one sessions with your counselor.

Most patients complete our IOP in nine to twelve weeks, but there is no set end date. You can stay longer if you need to. When you are ready, you step down to weekly outpatient care, a decision you and your counselor make together.

Inpatient and partial hospitalization programs involve more hours and, for inpatient, living at a facility. An IOP gives you at least nine hours of care a week while you stay home. It is the middle ground that lets you keep your routine while still getting intensive support.

You can take Methadone or Suboxone® and attend the virtual IOP through the same Frisco clinic. Your counselor and our medical team coordinate your medication and counseling so that both work together.

You need a private space and a phone, tablet, or computer with a camera and internet. Our team helps you log in before your first session. If connectivity is a barrier, call (866) 955-2481 and we will work through options with you.

Most commercial insurance and Medicare plans cover IOPs, including virtual sessions. Coverage depends on your plan’s outpatient mental health benefits. Call (866) 955-2481 with your insurance card, and our billing team verifies benefits in minutes before you commit.

Call (866) 955-2481 to schedule your intake assessment. Our admissions team answers seven days a week, and assessments can usually be set the same day or the next day. After your intake, you join the next virtual evening session on a Monday, Tuesday, or Thursday.

Every session is online, you can join from anywhere in Texas with outpatient mental health benefits on your plan. That includes patients across Collin County (Plano, McKinney, Allen, Prosper, Little Elm) and the broader north DFW area, as well as anyone traveling for work. The sessions are the same group and counselor no matter where you log in that evening.

For many people, yes it is. You get the same nine hours of counseling a week, the same licensed counselor, and the same small group every session. Joining from home also makes it easier to keep going around a full workday in north DFW.

Come to our clinic at The Star only for your intake assessment and any medication visits. The IOP groups themselves are fully online. Once you are set up, you join every session from home.

Yes. The 5:30 PM to 8:45 PM schedule works around daytime classes and part-time jobs, so students at Collin College and nearby campuses can keep up with school while getting nine hours of counseling a week.
