Intense Out Patient

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): A Unique Path to Recovery
Operated by Bunkhouse Behavioral Health in Partnership with Potter Ranch

Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a unique, non-clinical, private-pay approach to recovery for co-ed clients aged 18-40. Designed to meet the needs of individuals seeking to rebuild their lives, this program runs Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM, at our beautiful Potter Ranch facility.

What sets our IOP apart is its peer-to-peer approach, fostering authentic connection and accountability among participants. Our robust recovery program incorporates the Bunkhouse 12-Step Recovery Method, a modern take on proven principles, while immersing clients in equine interaction and the rhythm of ranch life.

Key program features include:

Equine Therapy: Hands-on experiences with horses that promote emotional growth, self-awareness, and trust.
Ranch Management: Clients engage in meaningful activities such as caring for our horses, maintaining the ranch, and cultivating teamwork.
Peer Building: A community-focused model where shared experiences create strong bonds and mutual support.
Workshops and Reflection: Daily recovery-centered activities tailored to build coping skills, resilience, and personal growth
Life Skill-Building: Practical skills such as cooking, self-care, and personal organization to foster independence and confidence.

Clients not only benefit from structure and purpose but also the calming and restorative power of ranch life. Whether it’s a quiet moment spent with a horse or the shared satisfaction of a day’s work, our IOP provides an environment where recovery can truly take root.

At Bunkhouse Behavioral Health, we believe recovery is about more than just abstinence—it's about rediscovering purpose, connection, and hope. If you or a loved one is ready for a unique, life-changing experience, we’re here to help.
