Outpatient Services

At an Outpatient level we offer a vast array of services, including Psychological Assessments, Substance Use Assessments, and Psychiatric Evaluations. We have Case Consultation and Crisis Intervention Services as well. We offer prevention services to the community in the form of education via trainings, presentations, our blog and our podcast. We also strive to provide educational resources to customers, families of our customers, schools, businesses and anyone in need at request.

At Lake Point Recovery and Wellness, we work with state and federal agencies to meet court-ordered treatment requirements as well. We are able to offer the following programs that meet state guidelines for mandated treatment:

Anger Management

Lake Point Recovery and Wellness offers a 12-session Anger Management program developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration. This program has been very successful in both our Residential and Outpatient programs, as well as in programs all over the country. Whether you have identified that you need to work on managing your anger or have been court ordered to treatment, this evidence-based program would be a perfect choice. We offer a flexible class schedule and have evening groups available.

DOT (Department of Transportation) mandated treatment

We work with SAP assessors to provide Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated treatment. We offer groups that satisfy the requirement for the DOT. We also can offer individual sessions, if needed, to satisfy this treatment requirement. We offer a flexible class schedule and have evening groups available.

While Lake Point Recovery and Wellness is a one-stop-shop, you may have needs that we do not address within our practice. Thankfully we offer a large network of referral partners to aid our customers for almost any need.

Real Experiences. Real Hope.

“This place has changed my life for the better in all aspects. I loved how welcoming and how sincere they were about my daughter. They helped with finding me a new place, new job, and head start for my daughter. I have learned to become a better person and woman because of this program. I love the counselors, administration, and the day care workers. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I will forever cherish this experience.”

Cassidy Edwards

I’ve been sober since I left here. I’ve struggled with addiction for a couple years but this place played a huge part in my recovery. Best program I’ve ever been to. Love the people that work there. They really do care about you. Would 10/10 recommend.

Megan Black

This place was great. I was with them for 5 months and they really went above and beyond with helping me. They helped with a place to live and they helped me to develop the tools I needed for continued success. Thanks to Lakepoint I am employed, in suitable housing, and working toward getting my kids back. I am a SOBER functioning member of society and for that I am eternally greatful. The real world is a tough place to be on your own, so if you need help getting sober and learning how to make it, this place is definitely the place to go.

Kaitlin Barrow

I am thankful for this resource. From the people you talk to over the phone to the admin and counselors every one seems to be on the same mission. The actual grounds are clean and well kept and the culture is one of safety with responsibility.

Rick Mitchell

Well, In my case I was really sick, broken would have been a understatement. But in my journey at LP I learned that somethings in life you can’t fix alone or even with self medication. The staff was genuinely concerned, the food was hot daily. The lessons where more about how to fix yourself from the inside first and to ask for help if ever you feel like it is too much. I’d like to especially thank Mrs. Jessica for being a great support a great advisor and now a great motivation for me. Thanks Lake Point for saving the life I had left and the new life I now live. Truly a blessing.

A Closer Look at the IOP Approach

Our Intensive Outpatient Program is grounded in the Matrix Model curriculum, an evidence-based framework that supports mental wellness and addiction recovery. This model provides coordinated services that address real-life challenges, including stress, family dynamics, relationships, wellness, psychiatric concerns, and substance use disorders.

At Lake Point Recovery & Wellness, IOP includes 9 hours of group therapy each week, individual counseling, random drug screenings, and access to available medical care. This level of structure offers essential support while still allowing individuals to work, care for family, and actively engage in their communities.

Beyond Therapy: Real-Life Support That Matters

Recovery isn’t just about staying sober: it’s about building a life you’re proud to live. That’s why our IOP focuses not only on therapy but also on practical, everyday support. We help clients search for jobs, resolve legal issues, attend community-based recovery groups, and explore positive, substance-free hobbies.

Most clients participate in IOP for about 90 days before transitioning into standard outpatient care. This step-down approach allows for continued support while gradually increasing independence and confidence.

Bridging the Gap Between Treatment and Life

Residential treatment provides critical structure, but many people need something more adaptable once they stabilize. Our Intensive Outpatient Program bridges the gap between inpatient care and everyday life, offering the accountability and connection needed to stay strong in recovery. It’s a place where clients can apply what they’ve learned while still receiving ongoing encouragement and professional guidance.

A Lifelong Journey, Supported Every Step of the Way

At Lake Point Recovery & Wellness in Arkansas, we understand that recovery doesn’t end after detox or residential care: it evolves. Our Intensive Outpatient Program is here to support you through that evolution with compassion, structure, and flexibility. If you’re ready to keep moving forward without putting your life on hold, connect with us today and take the next step in your recovery journey.
