Personalized trauma treatment at Charlie Health

How does Charlie Health’s virtual IOP treat trauma?

Charlie Health’s virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for trauma provides compassionate care for teens and adults who need specialized support for trauma, PTSD, and related mental health conditions.

With more frequent therapy sessions than traditional weekly options, all from the comfort of home, our trauma-informed program helps you heal while maintaining your daily routine. We offer a safe space where you can share your story, understand your needs, and connect with others facing similar challenges.

Curated groups

By bringing together people with similar traumatic experiences (such as survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and/or other complex trauma) we’re able to create group environments where people can learn how to build connections and foster long-term healing.

Individual therapy

One-on-one connections are critical to the IOP model, which is why each person’s unique treatment plan includes a trauma-informed primary therapist for weekly individual sessions.

Family therapy

A leading predictor of success in adult IOP is family involvement. Our virtual IOP’s family therapy component teaches communication and coping skills to manage family relationship issues and create a more supportive home environment both during and after treatment.

We also offer dozens of free family support groups for family members and loved ones of clients enrolled in our program. Learn more here.

What are the benefits of a virtual IOP for people dealing with trauma, PTSD, and other trauma-related conditions?

1) They can treat multiple conditions.

Virtual IOP can effectively address a variety of mental health concerns, including trauma-related conditions and co-occurring conditions (defined as situations where people experience two or more mental health conditions at the same time).

At Charlie Health, we specialize in treating trauma, plus:

2) They use a variety of treatment modalities.

Virtual IOP for trauma uses a variety of treatment modalities in group, individual, and family sessions, ensuring that people receive the best evidence-based care available. At Charlie Health, we offer:

3) The power of group connection.

Traditional weekly therapy is typically conducted one-on-one. The basis of virtual IOP for trauma, however, is group sessions, allowing people to heal together, build connections with others who understand their trauma, and practice skills in real time. Centering treatment in group support means clients can learn not only from the therapist but also from the experiences and insights shared by their fellow group members, fostering a sense of belonging and validation.

4) Flexible and accessible.

Virtual IOP for trauma allows people to continue with daily life, like work or school. With flexible scheduling, including options at night and on the weekend, people don’t have to put life on pause to get the mental health treatment they need.

How do I know if Charlie Health’s virtual IOP is right for me or my loved one struggling with trauma?

Our trauma-informed virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is an appropriate level of care for people who need more than once-weekly therapy to cope with trauma. Many of our clients have either recently discharged from a higher level of care (e.g., residential, inpatient, emergency room) or are seeking more support than traditional weekly talk therapy (outpatient) as they cope with traumatic events.

While typical outpatient treatment involves one therapy session per week, our virtual IOP for trauma offers multiple hours of treatment per week. At Charlie Health, each client receives a customized treatment plan that includes three group sessions per week, one trauma-informed individual therapy session per week, and one family therapy session per week. We also offer psychiatric services as needed.

Different therapy modalities are used throughout sessions, creating a truly comprehensive trauma treatment program.

most major insurance providers including commercial plans and Medicaid (in states where IOP is covered). Please contact our Admissions Team to learn more about your plan’s specific coverage, or check out our Insurance page.
