I went to the virtual IOP substance abuse classes. The groups started off great and the community among the group members was supportive and helpful. As we want further into the “curriculum” it was clear there were zero evidence based practices embedded as they state in the description. No DBT, CBT, ACT, or anything. There were constant videos like Ted talks, Buddhist meditation, etc and then random worksheets from smart recovery or other substance abuse websites. It was mentioned that the evidence based practices were worked on in 1:1 sessions but I had an outside therapist I saw so I did not participate in them. It is unacceptable to only look at ted talk videos and worksheets for almost 9 hours a week and then book a 50 minute session with a therapist per week to look at real skills... Regardless, that is not at all what an IOP program should look like. The curriculum is terrible and leaves participants sitting with their cameras off for 20-45 minutes at a time. Also, my original case worker spoke to me the first week I started and said she would follow up after my first full week. I never once heard from her until she emailed me 4 weeks into the program saying she forgot to do a case management needs assessment when I first started. I understand drowning in case management as I am a special educator but it’s best to be transparent rather than say you’ll check in and never do! In addition, when I shared I would be shifting to another program and asked what next steps would be, the conversation was less than five minutes. The counselor was respectful and wished me good luck however treatment centers typically (as it is best practice) will do a discharge meeting and provide 1-2 referrals for alternate programs to support in next steps. I was never once engaged with or spoken to after my phone call saying I would be leaving the program.... NOT LGBT friendly as stated!!!!! Much more to say but I am out of characters
