Intensive Outpatient Program

Our intensive outpatient program runs five days per week, four hours per day. The program is designed to allow participants to receive high-frequency, effective clinical services while continuing to participate part-time in work or school.

Intensive outpatient programming includes yoga and mindfulness, group therapy, and horticultural therapy. We believe that the farm is a space that calls to the imagination. Our spacious outdoor campus is paired with clinically excellent, physician-led services that combine movement, sunlight, and nature, with more conventional group psychotherapy techniques to support real and lasting healing. Group therapy activities draw heavily from Mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to deepen our shared sense of presence and ability to overcome thoughts that don’t align with our values.

Individuals in the intensive outpatient program who seek more meaningful involvement in the farm are welcome to volunteer on the farm and deepen their participation in the Jubilee community.

The Jubilee Model

The Jubilee Model focuses on five domains that are critical to mental health and personal growth. Our approach to healing incorporates group therapy, individual therapy and experiential components that support all of these domains.

Relationship with Self - getting to know yourself, your feelings and preferences, and how to care for yourself physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Relationship to others - Building your community of mutual support through friendship, family bonds and professional or volunteer relationships.

Relationship to Earth - Creating a sense of caring and stewardship for the Earth as a way of grounding ourselves and finding our center.

Spirituality - Finding meaning through mindfulness, creativity and embodiment. Note that Jubilee is not a religious program - our approach to spirituality is secular.

Life Skills - Figuring out how to find meaningful work, housing, and relationship with money.

The Daily Schedule

What does a day in the life of Jubilee look life?

We start with farm time in the morning - participants can work quietly or while chatting with a friend.

We move to group therapy covering a variety of topics from spirituality to coping skills to medications to writing a resume.

We eat lunch.

We engage in special learning activities that reinforce all of our therapeutic lessons - bringing our personal growth to our art, music, cooking, yoga and more.

At 1pm the therapeutic day is complete. Participants have the option to continue the day with volunteering in the afternoon.
