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

Understanding Intensive Outpatient and Partial Hospitalization Programs

IOP: Intensive Treatment Around Your Schedule

Our Intensive Outpatient Program provides 9-20 hours of structured clinical care per week, built around the demands of daily life in Royse City. Individual therapy with a consistent licensed therapist, group therapy with peers working through similar challenges, evidence-based skills training using CBT and DBT, and psychiatric evaluation and medication management — all integrated into one coordinated program. Morning and afternoon scheduling options mean most Royse City residents can continue working, attending school, and managing family responsibilities during IOP. IOP is the right level of care when symptoms significantly impact your life but do not require hospitalization.

PHP: Daily Support Without Hospitalization

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) provides 6-8 hours of intensive daily clinical support, five to six days per week. PHP is the highest level of outpatient care available — appropriate when symptoms require daily intensive treatment but inpatient hospitalization is not necessary. For Royse City residents, PHP is typically the right step when symptoms are acute, when stepping down from an inpatient stay, or when IOP has not been sufficient. You receive individual therapy, multiple group sessions, and psychiatric care each day, then return home in the evenings. Most participants step down to IOP level care after 2-4 weeks as symptoms stabilize.

Haley Stewart

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.

Edna Hussat

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.

H. Searcy

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I afford this?

If you have commercial insurance or Texas Medicaid, most or all of the cost is typically covered. Mind Above Matter accepts most major commercial plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, and UnitedHealthcare, as well as Texas Medicaid STAR, STAR+PLUS, and CHIP. We verify your benefits on your first call at no charge and tell you exactly what your out-of-pocket costs look like before you make any commitment. Most patients pay little to nothing out of pocket.

Do I need a referral?

No referral is required to contact Mind Above Matter or begin the intake process. You call us directly, explain what you are experiencing, and our intake team guides you through next steps. If your insurance plan requires prior authorization before starting IOP or PHP, our team handles that paperwork on your behalf. Most people have a confirmed start date within the same week they first call.

Is treatment available in Royse City?

Mind Above Matter serves Royse City residents through our Lewisville location, typically 20-30 minutes away via I-35E or SH-121. IOP and PHP programs are available now with same-week starts in most cases. Call (817) 662-6179 to speak with an intake specialist who will verify your benefits, answer questions, and confirm your start date.

Is this going to be on my record?

Your mental health treatment at Mind Above Matter is protected by HIPAA and federal confidentiality laws. Treatment records are not shared with employers, courts, schools, or family members without your explicit written consent. The only exceptions are narrow safety-related circumstances required by law. Your privacy is protected throughout the entire process, from your first call through discharge.

Do you accept Texas Medicaid?

Yes. Mind Above Matter accepts Texas Medicaid including STAR, STAR+PLUS, and CHIP. Medicaid covers IOP and PHP services when medically necessary, which is typically the case for the conditions we treat. Our intake team handles the authorization and paperwork process for you. If you are unsure whether your specific Medicaid plan covers our services, call us and we will verify your coverage same day at no charge.

How long is treatment?

IOP programs typically run 8 to 16 weeks depending on your diagnosis, symptom severity, and progress. PHP is usually 2 to 4 weeks before stepping down to IOP. Your clinical team sets your timeline based on your actual progress, not an arbitrary cutoff date. A gradual step-down from PHP to IOP to standard outpatient care is built into your treatment plan from the start.
