At the heart of BOLD Health's Intensive Outpatient Programs is a commitment to scientific principles. Our evidence-based curriculum is grounded in robust research, ensuring that our approach is not just a claim but a fundamental aspect of our philosophy. We believe that only through ongoing research and data-driven analysis can we customize our program to meet the unique needs of each client. At BOLD Health, we diligently monitor the progress of our clients throughout their treatment journey and continue to do so even years after treatment has concluded. This rigorous approach helps us to ensure that the positive outcomes achieved by our clients are enduring and impactful.
CURRICULUM
Our curriculum was developed in partnership with Jon Frederickson, a world leader in the field of ISTDP and author of numerous books on the subject (to learn more about ISTDP and Jon Frederickson, click here). The ten-week program is structured to bring clients to an awareness of the core issues miring them in addiction. We confront the real issues holding you back, head on. What comes out is perspective, awareness, growth, and ultimately, change.
RESEARCH TEAM
The research team is led by Allan Abbass (website) and Ole Andre Solbakken (website, TED Talk) two international leaders in ISTDP and authors of numerous studies. They know what works and have the data to support it. Our program expands on their previous research and incorporates their findings into the development of our Intensive Outpatient Program for addiction.
REVOLUTIONIZING ADDICTION TREATMENT
Our goal is that this research will transform the way addiction is currently treated. We are building a body of evidence for what actually works in the treatment of addiction; a field where good outcomes, hard science, and accountability have been missing. Why haven't we seen an approach like this before? Good Question. It seems simple, but sometimes leading a new way, even taking a simple step, takes a revolution and that's why we're here.
