What Is Outpatient Treatment?
An Outpatient Program is a form of treatment that allows individuals to receive care without staying overnight in a facility. This type of program is ideal for those who need ongoing support but also want to maintain their daily responsibilities and routines. Outpatient programs typically involve scheduled treatment sessions, including therapy, counseling, and medical appointments with the flexibility to maintain work or school schedules, engage in social activities, and live at home.
Benefits of Outpatient Treatment Programs:
Outpatient treatment programs offer several advantages, including flexibility in scheduling, the ability to continue working or attending school, and the opportunity to apply learned skills in real-world settings immediately. These programs are often more cost-effective than inpatient treatment and provide access to a supportive community and professional guidance.

The Outpatient Treatment Program at 7 Summit Pathways
Patients in our outpatient programs spend a minimum of eight weeks in treatment that offers a comprehensive and individualized approach designed to meet the unique needs of each person. Our program offers a variety of services that promote healing and recovery.
Level I
This lower-intensity outpatient program begins with a thorough medical evaluation as needed to determine the best mix of therapies for each person. After the evaluation, each patient learns the skills for recovery through:
- Three hours of clinical support per week
- One weekly family educational group
- One individual or family therapy session per week
- Urine drug screenings (as needed, billed separately)
Level II
After a comprehensive evaluation, patients move through our more intense outpatient program by engaging in the unique therapies that promote their healing. This program includes:
- Six hours of clinical support per week
- One weekly family educational group
- One individual or family therapy session per week
Therapies We Use
As patients learn to break free from the grip of drugs and alcohol in our outpatient programs, we help them learn the skills to maintain their recovery for life. Evidence-based and holistic therapies build healthy coping mechanisms and promote every dimension of wellness.
Some of the therapies we use at 7 Summit Pathways include:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy – Our therapists help patients understand the thoughts and emotions that contribute to their addictive behaviors. They learn how to identify and cope with triggers, manage stress, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
- Dual diagnosis treatment – The initial comprehensive evaluation from our team helps uncover any undiagnosed mental health conditions. Patients who suffer from addiction and a mental health disorder can benefit from dual diagnosis treatment, which healthily manages symptoms from both conditions at once.
- Community support – A strong support system is essential for recovery. In our outpatient program, patients can participate in daily support groups, including 12-step groups, SMART recovery, and Refuge Recovery.
- Expressive arts therapy – Our therapists use art, music, and other creative outlets to help patients express themselves in a constructive, healthy way.
Understanding Outpatient Programs
An outpatient program is a structured form of treatment designed for individuals dealing with addiction or mental health issues who do not require round-the-clock supervision. These programs allow patients to live at home and continue their daily activities, such as work, school, or family commitments while receiving regular therapy sessions, medical support, and counseling.
Outpatient programs typically include a variety of therapeutic modalities such as individual therapy, group therapy, family counseling, and sometimes medication management. The frequency and intensity of the sessions can vary based on the individual’s needs and progress in the treatment.
Comparison Between Outpatient and Inpatient Programs:
Outpatient and inpatient programs differ mainly in terms of the level of care and living arrangements. Inpatient programs like inpatient treatment, require patients to stay in a facility for a specific period, receiving intensive care and support 24/7. This type of program is suitable for individuals with severe addiction or mental health issues who need a highly structured environment to focus entirely on their recovery.
On the other hand, outpatient programs offer more flexibility, allowing patients to continue with daily routines while attending scheduled treatment sessions. This option is ideal for those who showcase a stable and supportive home environment and do not need constant supervision. Outpatient programs are often more affordable and accessible than inpatient programs.
