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.

What our clients say
“I'm now laughing and smiling and loving my life.”
When I came to Charlie Health, I was angry about all kinds of stuff. I didn't laugh because of the anger. Working with Charlie Health, I'm now laughing and smiling and loving my life. I highly recommend them.

“I finally feel like I can be the person I want to be.”
Charlie Health has provided me with the tools I needed to get through my daily life and overcome the obstacles I felt with lifelong PTSD. Each group facilitator offers a unique perspective on topics, and the people I met along the way inspire me. My individual therapist, Elizabeth, and I immediately clicked, and we resolved many of my traumas. I finally feel like I can be the person I want to be. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Charlie Health!

“I felt comforted knowing I had supportive people who care enough to push you forward while also being understanding of others.”
Charlie Health is a great place to go if you are looking for support. During my experience, I felt comforted knowing I had supportive people who care enough to push you forward while also being understanding of others. I worked with Angelica, my therapist, and she was great at supporting me through some mental health issues and being there in times of need. I highly recommend meeting with her if you are looking for support yourself. 9/10 would definitely recommend to anyone.
