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

Understanding Intensive Outpatient and Partial Hospitalization Programs

IOP: Flexible Intensive Treatment from the Mid-Cities

Our IOP program offers 9-20 hours per week of evidence-based treatment with both day and evening tracks. For Watauga residents, this means professional mental health care that fits around your commute, your job, and your family.

CBT, DBT, trauma therapy, motivational interviewing, and psychiatric services. All coordinated. All in one place.

PHP: Comprehensive Daily Treatment

PHP runs 5-6 days per week, 6-8 hours daily. It's the highest level of outpatient care available, appropriate for acute mental health crises, post-hospitalization transitions, and severe dual diagnosis situations.

One clinical team manages everything: your psychiatrist, your therapist, your groups, your medication, your discharge plan.

iMatter: Prevention Through School Partnerships

Mental health problems don't wait until adulthood. iMatter places licensed counselors in local schools to provide early intervention and support for students showing signs of anxiety, depression, trauma, or behavioral concerns.

We partner with Birdville ISD to bring professional care directly into the school environment.

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.
