The Matrix Model for Teens and Young Adults is a proven Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for people ages 13 to 25. It uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing (MI) to teach patients to analyze events and change thoughts, behaviors, and lifestyle related to alcohol and other drug use.

The evidence-based program includes four core clinical areas: individual family therapy, early recovery, relapse prevention, and family education. Participation in a Twelve Step program is encouraged throughout the curriculum. It also emphasizes the importance of social support, urine analysis, and breath testing.

Although the program can be completed in 16 weeks, it can also be extended up to 12 months to support continuing care and aftercare.
