Online therapy in Iowa
In Iowa, 128,000 adults have a serious mental illness.
More than 90% of Charlie Health clients reported improvements in their most severe mental health symptoms.
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
“My family will forever be changed by the generational trauma I have worked on breaking.”
I had reached a point in my life where something had to give. 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 will definitely be continuing treatment with a one on one because there is still healing to be done, but now I 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 trauma I have worked on breaking. My children will get to have a whole mother who is not weighed down by her grief and depression or anxiety. My husband now has a partner that can communicate and we will continue to cultivate a healthy and loving friendship and marriage.

“Charlie health gave me great resources to get myself out of a really dark place.”
Charlie health gave me great resources to get myself out of a really dark place. They guided me through what areas to practice and gave techniques on how to do so. It was also a great experience getting to listen to others in group and get to learn from their experiences. I was very happy with how well they helped me find the right treatment plan and group for me to best succeed.

“ I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone struggling with anything in daily life or needing support for any issues.”
I have been struggling with my mental health issues for 20+ years with no luck from counseling and therapists. It took finding the right program that I truly needed to help overcome my problems such as my endless years of trauma, depression, BPD, and much more. This program helped me in more ways than one. And I couldn't be any happier and more grateful for their help and support. They helped me to heal and realize things I never did before. I could actually see myself improving and healing for the first time in my life. This program and its people saved me and my life more than once. I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone struggling with anything in daily life or needing support for any issues including mental and physical. Thank you so much Charlie health you're my savior.
