to create your personalized wellbeing plan!
BoardPrep caters to professionals across various fields, offering targeted treatments for issues like stress, burnout, and addiction. While our expertise lies in aiding healthcare professionals, our services are well-suited for all professionals, addressing the distinct challenges faced by high-stress careers.
Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, and other professionals, are not immune to mental health problems, substance use disorders or professional burnout. In fact, the stress associated with the high stress professions can lead to greater vulnerability to health problems of all kinds. Furthermore, burnout, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders in healthcare professionals present specific challenges in treatment.
Experience matters when it comes to understanding and providing proper treatment to licensed health professionals. The clinicians of BoardPrep Recovery Center® have assessed and treated over 2,000 licensed health professionals from Florida and across the nation in the past 20 years through mental health and addiction treatment programs for professionals. Furthermore, BoardPrep is an approved healthcare-specific provider by the Florida Department of Health. BoardPrep is also approved by many other States for the treatment of healthcare professionals.
Private Rooms and Personalized Care
A private bedroom in an upscale recovery residence sets a relaxing tone. Fellowship and staff support show residents that they are cared for. A safe and clean environment reinforces a sense of security. Residents cherish the empathy and sensitivity shown by our team. Perhaps already at one of the lowest points of their lives, they may fear being further stressed or even humiliated. Instead, they experience the warmth, compassion, and professionalism that is commonplace at BoardPrep.
Recovery from professional burnout, substance use or another mental health disorder is personal. BoardPrep methodically develops individualized treatment recommendations for each person, based on the findings of the clinical assessment.

The Collaborative Treatment Process
The first 3 phases of BoardPrep’s 5-phase system form the foundation for continued recovery in a less structured setting. Based on ongoing ASAM dimensional assessment, many clients are recommended to return home and continue their recovery in an outpatient or intensive outpatient setting.
When clients transition from B-phase to C-phase, a comprehensive clinical review is undertaken by the interdisciplinary treatment team. Clients are endorsed for transition to outpatient or intensive outpatient at 6 weeks (upon completion of C-phase) based on the following criteria:
- Behavioral stability and compliance with a treatment plan
- Medication compliance, including Vivitrol when recommended
- Positive response to treatment
- Completion of individualized assignment packet
- Endorsement of professional monitoring program (med pros)
- “Pre-admission” to OP or IOP completed prior to transition
Intensive Outpatient
IOP commonly stands for “intensive outpatient program.” At BoardPrep Recovery, IOP also stands for Individualized Outpatient Program due to the tailored approach. Participants in BoardPrep IOP express their gratitude for the accessibility of the program and the professionalism of the staff.
BoardPrep IOP usually consists of 3 to 4 hours of treatment services per day. IOP sessions usually occur 3 to 4 days a week for a duration of about 12 weeks. BoardPrep Recovery Center® is a State licensed and Nationally accredited IOP provider.
We offer IOP tailor-made to each client. You or your loved one receives the specific services necessary to overcome obstacles to a successful recovery. You won’t find a “one-size-fits-all” approach at BoardPrep. Furthermore, we honor the individual and develop a plan that will help each client begin a new, addiction-free life. Therefore, recovery begins with a thorough clinical evaluation. It may also include optional psychological and neuro-cognitive testing.
IOP treatment includes
- 3-4 partial days of treatment each week with licensed addiction specialists in whatever setting is appropriate for you or your loved one – individualized groups or one-on-one.
- Monitoring and recovery support with the assistance of mobile breathalyzer devices, biomarker sampling, and other tools to promote accountability.
- A family approach to treatment, when applicable, with personalized in-home family therapy sessions conducted by licensed experts.
Making the right choice
Studies show that identifying with or relating to others in treatment is one key to early recovery. When a person goes to a rehab in a place where they feel they do not belong, because they cannot relate to others in the group, it can actually do more harm than good.
