Texas Group-Focused Outpatient Treatment

What are IOP and PHP, and How Can They Help You?

IOP for Depression: Intensive Support That Moves the Needle

9-20 hours per week of CBT-based group therapy, behavioral activation, individual therapy, psychiatric medication management, and family therapy. Evening programs for those maintaining work or school. IOP intensity produces clinically superior outcomes to weekly therapy for moderate-to-severe depression.

PHP for Severe Depression: Daily Clinical Support

25-30 hours per week for DFW residents facing severe depression — inability to work, passive suicidal ideation, significant self-neglect, or recent hospitalization. PHP stabilizes acute depression while avoiding inpatient disruption and cost. Private pay: $250/day.

Psychiatric Care for Treatment-Resistant Depression

When depression has not responded to standard antidepressants, our board-certified psychiatrists provide comprehensive evaluation — augmentation strategies, reassessment for mood disorders driving treatment resistance, and coordination with your primary care physician.

I don't think I will ever be able to adequately articulate what Mind Above Matter (Burleson - Virtual) did for me in a time where I needed something so desperately. At the time, I didn't know what I needed, or how anything could help, but thank the Lord I was directed to MAB. The program literally saved my life and set me back up for success. I 100% feel like I've been able to take back my life with the help from the therapists, psychiatrist, and program that I was apart of in my time at MAB. If you are thinking about starting this program, or referring someone you love to this program, don't hesitate - do it. I promise, you will not regret it.

We had the absolute best experience working with Ally. She was my child’s therapist and made such a positive impact on her life, not just in her progress, but in her confidence and overall happiness. From the very beginning, Ally made our entire family feel included in the process. She took the time to explain everything clearly, welcomed our questions, and always made us feel heard.
Her kindness, patience, and genuine care for her clients truly set her apart. It’s clear she’s passionate about what she does and deeply invested in helping each child succeed. We are so grateful for her support and would recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled therapist.

Graduating from the PHP and IOP program at Mind Over Matter has been a life-changing experience for me. From the very beginning, I felt truly supported and cared for. The therapists here are absolutely incredible — compassionate, skilled, and genuinely invested in helping you grow and heal.

Each session felt meaningful and safe, and the team created an environment where I could open up, work through challenges, and actually see progress. What stood out the most was how much the therapists went above and beyond — they didn’t just “do their job,” they made me feel seen, heard, and understood in a way that’s rare to find.

If you’re looking for a program that provides structure, encouragement, and outstanding therapists who truly care, I can’t recommend Mind Over Matter enough. This place gave me the tools and confidence I needed to move forward, and I’ll always be grateful for my time here.
