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
“I felt hopeless, directionless, and tired..”
I came to Charlie Health because I felt hopeless, directionless, and tired. Through my 10 weeks of group therapy, I've formed friendship and learned new skills to help me get through the harsh everyday world.

“The people there are genuinely worried about and care for your health and you as a person.”
Charlie Health has been an amazing part of my life. It's hard at first, but the people there are genuinely worried about and care for your health and you as a person. I struggled with wanting to participate, but I think it's really important that you do. Things will get better eventually, maybe not as quickly as you're hoping, or maybe you don't want to get better. But I promise, it's worth it. It takes hard work. But if you put in that work, this program will help you. You are worth it, and I promise it will be better someday.
—Clay C.
“I am now finally on the correct road to recovery.”
I am a very traumatized individual. I’ve been through terrible things and developed a ton of mental issues because of it. Charlie Health helped me to better my mental health; it taught me a lot of new skills to use whenever I am in a distressing situation or when I have another severe depressive episode. And it has even helped me navigate and maintain close relationships with others! Groups are very helpful and supportive, and overall, I had a great experience; I am now finally on the correct road to recovery!
