TALBOTT at Dunwoody Begins Evening IOP for Addiction and Dual Diagnosis Treatment

TALBOTT at Dunwoody, a satellite office of Talbott Recovery Campus, recently began offering an evening Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) with a comprehensive range of services through a 30-day (5 days per week/3 hours per day) treatment program. The evening IOP provides 12-Step based treatment to those 18 and older, addressing both substance abuse and dual diagnosis. Our treatment philosophy and practices are based on more than 35 years of highly successful and effective treatment experience of founder, Douglas Talbott, M.D. and the programs developed in our traditional 90-day program at the Talbott Recovery Campus in Atlanta.

Each patient receives an individualized treatment plan designed to address issues specific to that patient. Examples of daily skills training topics are managing cravings and triggers, drug refusal skills, anger management, effective communication, and relapse prevention. Group therapy facilitates patients’ ability to process painful emotions related to life events and using behaviors with the support of peers and trained clinical staff.

TALBOTT’s evening IOP is for people struggling with substance abuse disorders who need to continue working while in treatment, or otherwise have extenuating circumstances prohibiting them from attending a day treatment program.

TALBOTT at Dunwoody works with all major insurance companies across the U.S.

Programming hours are Monday through Thursday from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to Noon.

TALBOTT at Dunwoody also offers Day Treatment Programming. The Day Treatment Program is designed for people 18 years of age and older who are struggling with substance abuse disorders. Patients attend treatment for a 30 day period (5 days per week, 6 hours per day) Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and are required to attend 12 Step support groups daily. Patients may reside at home or in a nearby recovery residence while he/she is in treatment.

Each patient receives an individualized treatment plan designed to address issues specific to that patient. Examples of treatment modalities incorporated include:

  • Medical and psychological evaluation
  • Spiritual groups
  • Process groups

  • 1st, 2nd, and 3rd step education and integration practice
