Designed to mirror in-person care, Guardian Virtual offers a fully immersive treatment experience using AI technology alongside real, licensed clinical staff.

The program 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.
Guardian Virtual’s IOP addresses the multifaceted nature of addiction, focusing on emotional, mental, social, physical, and spiritual health. Clients participate in 4 group sessions per week, as well as a weekly individual session to personalize treatment plans and set goals. Group and individual therapy sessions cover topics such as relapse prevention, life skills training, and holistic practices like mindfulness and yoga. Regular drug testing supports recovery goals, as well as a weekly family support group and a step-down outpatient program for ongoing individual and group sessions. 24/7 support is available for emergencies or urgent care needs.
Guardian Virtual offers educational workshops focused on educating clients about addiction, mental health, and strategies for maintaining recovery. Clients receive aftercare planning to help maintain sobriety and prevent relapse in the long term.
