Outpatient Programs (PHP & IOP)

Outpatient treatment at DRC Helpline gives you the flexibility to receive high-quality addiction care while maintaining your daily responsibilities. Our treatment center in Tallulah, Louisiana offers two levels of outpatient programming designed to meet patients at different stages of their recovery journey.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

  • Individual and group therapy sessions daily
  • Psychiatric medication management

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

  • Duration: 8–12 weeks
  • Schedule: 3–4 evenings per week, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
  • Group counseling and process groups
  • Individual therapy weekly

Standard Outpatient & Aftercare

Following PHP or IOP completion, patients transition to standard outpatient care with weekly individual sessions and monthly group check-ins. Our aftercare program provides alumni support groups, recovery coaching, and ongoing community connections to sustain long-term sobriety.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Dual diagnosis treatment at DRC Helpline addresses the critical link between substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Research shows that up to 50% of individuals struggling with addiction also have an underlying mental health disorder. At our treatment center in Tallulah, Louisiana, our psychiatric and addiction specialists work together to treat both conditions simultaneously, which is essential for lasting recovery.

Our integrated approach means that patients receive coordinated care from a multidisciplinary team including a psychiatrist, licensed therapists, and addiction counselors. We avoid treating addiction in isolation, because unaddressed mental health issues are among the leading causes of relapse.

Mental Health Conditions We Treat

  • Depression – Major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, and treatment-resistant depression
  • Anxiety – Generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic disorder, and phobias
  • PTSD – Post-traumatic stress disorder related to trauma, abuse, military service, or adverse life events
  • Bipolar Disorder – Bipolar I and II, mood stabilization, and episode management

Our Dual Diagnosis Approach

  • Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation at intake
  • Medication management by a board-certified psychiatrist
  • Trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation
  • EMDR therapy for trauma processing
  • Individual and group sessions focused on co-occurring disorders
  • Integrated treatment planning that addresses both conditions concurrently
  • Family education on supporting a loved one with dual diagnosis
