Guardian Virtual, an innovative online intensive outpatient program (IOP), was strategically and expertly designed to increase accessibility to addiction treatment across the United States. Currently available to residents of Florida, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, and Colorado, Guardian Virtual aims to extend its reach to all 50 states within several years.

- Maine

Adolescent SUD IOP

The inclusion of virtual care into our available treatment services was driven by the need to overcome traditional barriers to treatment access. Virtual programs offer unparalleled flexibility, allowing individuals to receive comprehensive care regardless of geographical location or mobility constraints. This is particularly vital for remote or underserved areas, where access to quality care is often limited.
Our unique virtual format caters to the busy schedules of modern life. We enable individuals to integrate treatment seamlessly into their daily routines without the need for extensive travel or time away from work or family. The privacy afforded by virtual sessions also reduces the stigma sometimes associated with seeking treatment, encouraging more people to reach out for the help they need.
By leveraging advanced technology and innovative therapeutic approaches, Guardian Virtual not only broadens access but also ensures a high standard of personalized care, making effective treatment a reality for many who might otherwise go without.

About Our Virtual IOP
Guardian Recovery’s virtual IOP addresses common barriers faced by many seeking professional substance use disorder and mental health treatment, such as financial constraints and the challenge of reliable transportation. This expansion is vital in combating the increasing number of accidental drug-related fatalities nationwide and improving the quality of life for those dealing with addiction and co-occurring issues.
Guardian Virtual operates through Sober Peer, an AI-powered mobile health app, which aids in making treatment more accessible and maintains connection and accountability for those newly sober. Our approach offers unique advantages, especially for those who cannot easily travel to receive clinical care. The virtual treatment model also helps prevent individuals from disengaging with treatment prematurely, thereby improving long-term outcomes and reducing the risk of relapse.
Our virtual program is particularly beneficial as a step-down level of care for those who have completed detox and residential treatment. It allows individuals to continue receiving quality care for substance use and mental health disorders while rebuilding their lives. Moreover, the affordability and potential coverage by national health insurance policies make this virtual program a cost-effective alternative to traditional residential care.
Designed to mirror in-person care, Guardian Virtual offers a fully immersive treatment experience. Our program’s technology platform is integrated to provide a seamless continuum of care, creating an environment that feels more like entering a treatment center than just logging into an online meeting.

What Does Virtual Treatment Look Like?
The comprehensive nature of the virtual programming matches that of traditional, in-person treatment. It includes medication management, psychiatric visits, drug testing, and innovative features like a breathalyzer connecting to the client’s cellphone and geofencing to mark high-risk locations.
Our virtual treatment program utilizes AI technology alongside real, licensed clinical staff. IOP group sessions are held four times a week in 3-hour sessions, and the program includes weekly individual sessions for personalizing treatment plans and setting goals. Additionally, Guardian Virtual encompasses a weekly family support group and a step-down outpatient program for ongoing individual and group sessions.
Guardian Recovery’s commitment through Guardian Virtual is to ensure that practical help is accessible to anyone struggling with substance use, regardless of their circumstances, genuinely meeting clients where they are.
