In this special episode of Delivered, we are so happy to welcome Lauren back to the show! Lauren brings a wealth of knowledge in the mental health field, with a strong background in the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). In today's episode, we dive deep into the transformative journey of healing within the structure of an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Whether you're navigating mental health challenges, postpartum depression, or trauma, an IOP can be a powerful bridge between inpatient care and full independence. We’ll explore what an IOP really looks like, the kinds of support it offers, and why it's such a critical part of so many people's healing journeys. Lauren & I share honest insights, challenges, and victories along the way. If you or someone you love is seeking healing, this episode offers hope, clarity, and real-world perspective on what recovery can look like.
