Intensive Outpatient Program in Phoenix, AZ

What Makes Our Program at The Rosemary Tree different?

Healing the Whole Family System

We don’t believe in "dropping off" a child to be "fixed." True healing happens when the whole family grows together.

That’s why our IOP includes a mandatory (and meaningful) family component:

  • Tuesday Parent Sessions: Every Tuesday from 5:00 pm to 6:30 pm, parents join us.

  • Support & Connection: You’ll participate in either a parent support group or a "lively and playful" full-family session with other families.

  • Creative Engagement: Expect to get your hands dirty and engage in the same creative work your kids are doing. It’s about building a common language of healing.

If any of these resonate, this program may provide the immersive environment your child needs to shift from simply surviving to thriving.

NOTE: Our IOP is in-network with BCBS, Aetna and Cigna.

Adolescent-focused group therapy can help!

At The Rosemary Tree, our intensive outpatient program for adolescents is uniquely designed to specifically address the challenges today's young people are facing. Our program ends the feelings of isolation by placing teens in group settings, allowing them to build a sense of meaning and purpose in their interactions together.

We also focus extensively on incorporating the entire family unit, making the transition more seamless and providing every member of the family with the tools to make meaningful change. As a leading intensive outpatient program for youth in Arizona, we ensure that both teens and their families receive the support needed for long-term healing.

What makes our Adolescent IOP program unique?

Adolescent IOP program

We provide trauma-focused IOP for teens, adolescent anxiety treatment, teen depression treatment and support young people dealing with issues rooted in trauma or attachment wounds. Our specialized programs are designed for the challenges of adolescence, offering personalized care that blends clinical therapy with hands-on experiences, academic support, and life skills training.

Adolescent IOP program

This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Each young person receives a tailored treatment plan to help them navigate this critical stage and thrive. Always firmly rooted in clinically exceptional, evidence-based care, we intentionally integrate creativity, play, exploration and activities tailored to each participant's growth.

Adolescent IOP program

New skills endure longer when we experience them. Our holistic program embraces kinesthetic learning, art, movement, creativity, and nature in order to bring about the greatest change. Our mental health therapy for teens in Phoenix is one of the most unique programs in the state of Arizona.

Adolescent IOP program

We believe family is central to lasting healing, so our approach focuses on the family as the solution, not the problem. By healing parent-child bonds and fostering authentic connections, teens in our programs build self-compassion, resilience, and healthier relationships with parents and peers.
