Arizona Evening IOP for Teens
Our after-school IOP at NexStep Teen Academy allow your teen to start or continue treatment without disrupting academics, family routines, or activities.
Safe & Enjoyable Environment
Our Evening IOP programs take place at our Scottsdale outpatient treatment center where teens will have access to group and education rooms, a game room, and kitchen.
Family Involvement
From admissions to group therapies to discharge, families are involved throughout the entire nighttime IOP treatment process.
Individualized Care
NexStep prides itself on offering personalized care programming specific to each teen. We understand that no two situations are the same, and our treatment plans reflect this.
What is an Evening Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?
NexStep Teen Academy’s evening intensive outpatient program is a flexible level of care that provides 3 hours of group and individual therapies each night, allowing teens to receive support after school and while returning home following treatment.
Evening IOP offers a unique approach to treatment for parents who want to ensure their teen can still attend school each weekday.
When is Evening IOP at NexStep?
During Evening IOP at NexStep Teen Academy, adolescents attend a structured evening therapy program from 3:30 PM to 7:30 PM, available Monday through Thursday each week.
If you are interested in our after-school IOP option, we can work with you depending on your teen’s availability. This program is designed to stabilize symptoms, build coping skills, and improve functioning at home and school—without missing daytime classes.
The Role of Evening IOP in a Teen’s Recovery Journey
Evening IOP is a strategic step for families who need intensive support that fits a busy schedule. It can be a step‑down from teen PHP or a step‑up from standard teen outpatient when symptoms increase. During our IOP evening program, your teen will:
-
Receive a structured, supportive therapeutic environment -
Engage in weekly family therapy to improve communication
-
Address mental health concerns
-
Learn CBT/DBT‑based skills for emotional regulation
-
Practice coping strategies at home between sessions
Why Enroll Your Teen in Our Evening IOP in Arizona?
There are many reasons a teen evening IOP for mental health can be the right fit for your family. Here are the core benefits:
1. Comprehensive Treatment
Your teen receives a personalized plan that may include CBT, DBT, skills training, experiential therapies, and coordinated individual, group, and family therapy built around their goals.
2. Continued Skill Development
Evening IOP sessions reinforce coping strategies, emotional regulation, and life and communication skills, allowing teens to practice immediately at home and at school the next day.
3. Peer Support & Family Involvement
Individual therapies allow clients to connect one-on-one with a therapist, while family and group therapies strengthen the home environment and provide accountability.
4. Academic Coordination
Because care happens after school, your teen can maintain attendance and coursework. However, we can still coordinate with families and schools when appropriate to ensure academic progress.
