The Redpoint Center recognizes the importance of accessible care, especially in rural areas of Colorado. Our Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is designed to meet the needs of Fort Garland residents, allowing them to receive vital support from the comfort of their homes.

Our Virtual IOP not only caters to those in Fort Garland but also extends to nearby communities, ensuring that more individuals can access our comprehensive care.

The Redpoint Center offers an extensive range of services, including mental health treatment for anxiety and depressive disorders, as well as substance use and co-occurring disorders.

We accept most major insurance providers, making it easier for Fort Garland residents to prioritize their health and well-being.

Distance is the recurring problem, not the exception. A narrative review of 15 studies of telehealth across rural American communities found improved access, with lower travel cost and time and higher patient satisfaction, including specialty care those residents could not otherwise reach. Our Virtual IOP across Colorado is built around that reality, and it runs the same way in Fort Garland as it does anywhere else in the state.

Choosing The Redpoint Center means opting for a treatment provider that truly understands the unique needs of Fort Garland residents. We pride ourselves on our HIPAA-compliant technology, protecting privacy and security while delivering care. Our acceptance of most major insurance plans further alleviates financial concerns, allowing individuals to focus on their recovery.

The obvious worry about a screen is that it buys a lesser version of the program. The evidence does not support that. A systematic review of telemedicine for substance use treatment covering 13 studies, 7 of them randomized controlled trials, found no significant difference in substance use outcomes between in-person and telehealth care, with treatment satisfaction and therapeutic alliance generally comparable. The American Psychological Association describes the same pattern in mental health care, where telehealth is essentially as effective as face-to-face psychotherapy, with higher retention.

Clinicians work in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, and acceptance and commitment therapy, chosen around what you are working on rather than a fixed curriculum. Sessions run on secure, HIPAA-compliant video, and the confidentiality rules that apply in our offices apply online. Our in-person IOP page sets out what intensive outpatient care involves in full.
