The Excel Center's intensive outpatient program offers treatment for emotional, behavioral and/or chemical dependency problems.

This program is less intensive than partial hospitalization but is more intensive than traditional outpatient therapy. It is designed to provide stabilization and resolution of immediate problem areas.

The Excel Center also offers a specialized chemical dependency intensive outpatient program, which meets Monday through Friday, or Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings.

The family is involved in the treatment process, as we consider family participation to be a vital link in treatment and follow-up care. Referring professionals are invited to participate in treatment. With the patient's permission, these professionals are continually updated on the patient's progress and the individual is referred back to the professional for continued follow-up care.

The intensive outpatient program operates:

• Monday through Friday, 9 a.m to 12 p.m., for mental health
• Monday through Friday, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., for chemical dependency
• Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 6 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., for the mental health and chemical dependency evening programs
