Dual-Diagnosis Outpatient (PHP & IOP)

Clear’s Dual Diagnosis Outpatient Program provides comprehensive and individualized support for those struggling with addiction and mental health. Our expert therapeutic and clinical team takes a holistic approach to help you heal from mental health and co-occurring disorders, including trauma, depression, anxiety and substance abuse, by integrating chemical dependency and mental health education, evidence-based individual and group therapy, and experiential wellness groups.

Dual Diagnosis Programs at Clear

We know each client is unique, and it’s essential to provide the level of care and treatment that’s best for them. That’s why Clear’s Dual Diagnosis Outpatient Program offers four options:

  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
  • Continued Care Group
  • Alumni Program

Our outpatient programs may be your next step if you need more than an hour of individual therapy a week, but do not quite qualify for a residential level of care—or, for if you have recently completed a higher level of care, such as inpatient or residential treatment, and are looking to transition back into your daily life while still receiving support and guidance. At Clear, we also offer age-specific treatment for teens— Learn More.
