HeartsWay New Mexico's Intensive Outpatient Program

Trauma, Mental Health & Substance Use Recovery

When weekly therapy isn’t enough — and 24-hour inpatient care isn’t needed — our Intensive Outpatient Program offers structured, compassionate support for meaningful healing and steady progress.


At HeartsWay New Mexico, we provide trauma-informed IOP care that blends clinical best practices with whole-person approaches that honor mind, body, and spirit. Our healing team guides each client with skill, steadiness, and heart.

What Is an Intensive Outpatient Program?

An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a structured level of care for individuals who need more support than traditional outpatient therapy, but who can safely live at home and do not require 24-hour supervision.


Our program provides consistent therapeutic engagement, practical skill-building, and integrated support, all while remaining connected to daily life and community.

Who Our IOP Is Designed For

Our program may be a good fit for individuals who:

  • Are managing trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar conditions, substance use disorders, or co-occurring conditions
  • Have completed inpatient or residential treatment and want continued structure and support
  • Are experiencing increasing symptoms that are not improving with weekly therapy alone
  • Have a safe living environment and reliable transportation
  • Are ready to participate in group-based therapeutic work

We welcome referrals from clinicians and providers and are happy to coordinate care.

The HeartsWay New Mexico Approach

Our 15-week, trauma-informed program

is designed to support safety, resilience, emotional regulation, and recovery. We provide clinically grounded care in a setting that is structured, relational, and compassionate.

As a participant, you gain insight

into how trauma, stress, and substance use shape thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. And you learn practical tools to shift these patterns with greater awareness and choice.

Clients are supported by a multidisciplinary team

that includes licensed counselors and therapists alongside experienced integrative practitioners, ensuring coordinated and individualized care.

How We Work

Each week includes a blend of:

  • Clinician-facilitated group therapy
  • Skills training and psychoeducation
  • Experiential and somatic practices
  • Mindfulness and grounding work
  • Individual therapy sessions
  • Family education and support sessions
  • Psychiatry and medication management when needed
  • Art Therapy

Meeting Trauma with Compassion

We keep our groups intentional and supportive so participants feel both safe and actively engaged.

Get Started

This program invites clients to meet trauma and hurt with compassion, support, and skilled guidance. In a safe community setting, we use a holistic approach that honors mind, body, and spirit while we walk alongside each person in their healing.”
