How IOP fits around real life in Charleston
IOP is built for clients who still have work, school, or family responsibilities to hold onto — many attend group sessions three times a week rather than daily, which is enough structure to keep progress going without stepping fully out of everyday life. Clients most often move into IOP as a step down after completing PHP, carrying the same recovery manager and therapist relationships forward so nothing has to restart from zero.
IOP is appropriate when a person has enough stability and support outside of treatment to engage several times a week rather than every day. What tips my recommendation isn't just diagnosis or substance, it's whether someone has enough of a foundation in their daily life — housing, safety, a support system — to actually hold what happens in a less intensive program.

“This place is absolutely amazing, from the doctor to the therapists to the staff! They really care and they understand because most of them have been in our shoes. The women I was surrounded by were so uplifting — I was truly blessed to have gotten the help that I did from Lantana. They show you what it feels like to have sober fun! The people I met at Lantana will always have a special place in my heart.”
“This is my first experience with a recovery center. The entire staff was very true to me my entire stay. Jen delivered very powerful messages when she directed class. Scott totally gets me and is very easy to talk to. Ashley is a powerful ball of energy and wonderful at what she does. William truly related to me and to what my needs were. I was blown away by the professionalism and structure that Lantana offered. Lantana has given me the tools and confidence that I need for a successful recovery!”
“My only regret about this place is that I didn't come here sooner! I recently completed the PHP program here. I immediately felt a positive and welcoming energy walking through the doors. My recovery manager was on the ball and I immediately felt I could trust him. My therapist was amazing and I got a lot out of our one-on-ones and group sessions. The classes were very informative and helped me shape an entirely different perspective on life. I left there a different person. Thank y'all so much for helping me get my life back, my family back, and a strong foundation to build on.”
“I arrived at Lantana a broken, miserable, lost soul. I left Lantana six weeks later with the knowledge and acceptance that I was an alcoholic. Lantana both saved my life and gave me life. I stayed at the mother's house for three months and attended IOP sessions three times weekly, which helped me grow in the understanding of my disease and how to cope. Almost 7 months after discharge, I stay in touch with these beautiful souls. I am 69 and have such faith, joy, and curiosity in the life I have left to live.”
“Lantana provides amazing opportunities for people to succeed. The staff and therapists are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I had a great experience.”
“Before I went to Lantana I was living an absolute mess of a life. This establishment has given me the tools to a better way of living! Everyone's experience is different — they teach you to take accountability for yourself. You get out what you put in, and they REALLY care and support you. Loving and caring staff that has your back. Reach out and get help if you need it!”
“Lantana saved my life. I've been to multiple rehabs and Lantana stands out. Such a great staff. They helped me build a foundation and I'm now over 2 years sober. They teach you how to live life and have fun again, without substances.”
