What is IOP?

Intensive outpatient programming (IOP) is a level of behavioral healthcare that is typically more structured and intensive than traditional weekly therapy.

The goal of IOP is to provide individuals with the support and treatment they need to manage their mental health issues and achieve lasting recovery, while still allowing them to maintain their daily routines and responsibilities.

Curated groups

By bringing people with similar mental health challenges together, we’re able to create group environments where clients 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 client’s unique treatment plan includes a primary therapist for weekly individual sessions.

Family therapy

The #1 predictor of success in IOP is family involvement. Our virtual intensive outpatient program’s family therapy component teaches communication and coping skills to create a more supportive home environment both during and after treatment.

Who is IOP for?

People with ongoing mental health issues or in a mental health crisis

IOP is designed for individuals who need more treatment and support than can be provided through once-weekly therapy, but who do not require the level of care provided through residential or inpatient treatment.

In their words

What our clients say

“The skills and exercises I've learned have already begun transforming my daily life, empowering me to embrace this new journey with newfound self-confidence.”

As a first-time mom, I knew changes were bound to happen; however, I did not expect these changes and feelings to impact me the way that they did. Stepping into therapy for the first time felt daunting, but Charlie Health has truly been a blessing. I can't imagine where I'd be without the support and understanding I've received. I'm deeply grateful for the safe space created for us to express our feelings and share our struggles, thoughts, and the realities of mom life. Reminding me that it is COMPLETELY normal to feel how I've been feeling. The guidance and encouragement from the team have been invaluable during these challenging times. I will forever be grateful to the team! The skills and exercises I've learned have already begun transforming my daily life, empowering me to embrace this new journey with newfound self-confidence. Thank you for being a beacon of hope and support. Together, we are building a happier future, one step at a time.

“I am so happy I gave it a chance.”

I had reached a point in my life where something had to give. I was either going to succumb to my trauma and depression or need to go to an inpatient facility. I found Charlie Health through the military and was scared at first and wasn’t sure it would help, but I am so happy I gave it a chance. My husband and immediate family have noticed a significant difference in my countenance and behaviors. I am lighter and happier. I can be faced with stress and not be overwhelmed by it. I now have a clean and healthy slate to begin handling my trauma. I will recommend the CBT groups to everyone. My family will forever be changed by the generational traumas I have worked on breaking. My children will get to have a whole mother who is not weighed down by her grief, depression, or anxiety. My husband now has a partner who can communicate, and we will continue to cultivate a healthy and loving friendship and marriage.

“ The program enables individuality and autonomy and always ensures that the patient's needs are met, be it financial or mental.”

Charlie Health is an amazing program with services that do NOT disappoint. They have wonderful group facilitators who understand the needs of the group in order to get the session flowing instead of just sitting in awkward silence. The program enables individuality and autonomy and always ensures that the patient's needs are met, be it financial or mental. I loved the consistency of the program and how easily accessible your mental health information is from one branch of the service to another. Charlie Health allowed me to feel supported and heard when I hadn't before in my daily life. This program made me realize that I am so much stronger than everyone made me out to be and that I can do so much more if I just put myself first. I was allowed to see my importance in the world and help others with the advice I wish I had when I was in their situation. I will be forever grateful that I got to take part in the Charlie Health program.
