How does smartIOP Work?
Select Someone to be your smartSponsor
A smartSponsor is someone you select, typically a friend or family member, to support you during your time in the smartIOP program. In the longer term, your sponsor may help you navigate challenges that follow once you complete your program.
Set-up smartIOP Technology Tools
To use smartIOP, you will first need to set-up user accounts with our technology providers. You will need a secure Internet connection, something to access it with, and a camera for 1:1 therapy sessions.
If you need any technical help, we will provide assistance.
Access Online Treatment
smartIOP provides twice the amount of one-on-one therapy compared with other IOPs. Participate in 11 sessions with your assessment team, therapist, and case manager and access over 70 video sessions in our library at any time you please with your smartSponsor, friends, and family.
Attend Weekly Support Group Meetings with Your smartSponsor
A critical part of your recovery will be through attendance at weekly support groups with your smartSponsor. This is the only offline part of the smartIOP program, although the requirement can be completed online. You will also need to submit to regular sobriety checks with your smartSponsor.
Track Your Progress Through Completion
Your progress will be tracked through our smartIOP platform and verified by your smartSponsor. Most participants complete the program in 6-12 weeks, but this can vary since it is self-paced. However, if you are using insurance, completing the program too slowly could impact your coverage.
About smartIOP
Every Smart IOP participant, chooses a smartSponsor.
smartIOP is a self-study online substance abuse treatment program offering therapy and treatment on your schedule. The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a level of care that is one step above traditional outpatient therapy.
You will meet one-on-one with your therapist and case manager in set intervals after you complete a set number of video modules. Your assigned therapist will monitor your progress in the program and they will help you to apply what you have learned to your own specific circumstances.
The program is designed for mild to moderate alcohol/substance abuse problems and it is extremely flexible with individual schedules. Though we intend for patients to complete smartIOP in 6-12 weeks, you decide when to finish each session. If your schedule is unpredictable or you have rotating shifts this program is for you!

More About the smartSponsor
Every Smart IOP participant, chooses a smartSponsor.
The Sponsor is usually someone inside your life (a friend, peer or family member) who can help with accountability and the development of healthy habits. They ensure that you are actively participating in the program and helps us monitor your sobriety.
We cannot overstate the value of a smartSponsor in an online IOP. We strongly believe that participating with another person fosters the development of a sober support network.
The Smart Sponsor may use a breathalyzer or oral drug screen to make sure the client is sober. In addition, a therapist may ask you to submit test results. The results of the test can be seen and recorded through the individual video session (don’t worry: we use oral swabs for drug/alcohol test – no urine collection necessary).
We designed smartIOP to fit your life, and we believe that the smartSponsor should be a part of your life and your treatment.
We make sure everyone involved understands the nature of addiction.
Sponsors participate in activities and education with clients to provide a source of strong and active support. In the longer term, your sponsor may help you navigate challenges that follow once you complete your program.
