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
“Through talking with group members and following the curriculum I was able to gain the confidence I needed to make some very needed drastic changes in my life.”
When I came to Charlie Health I was in a pretty rough head space. When I got comfortable with sharing I realized that I had a lot in common with fellow group members and it really made me feel validated. Through talking with group members and following the curriculum I was able to gain the confidence I needed to make some very needed drastic changes in my life for the better. This is a great place!! I would recommend Charlie Health to anyone needing help!!

“I connected with so many people after years of isolation.”
I was at the absolute end of my rope with no hope left. This program was the last chance I was gonna give my life. Being here has completely changed my view of myself. I've learned to love myself. Even when I was having a bad day, I always knew there was another meeting coming soon, so I stopped feeling hopeless the way I used to. I feel so much more able to deal with my problems, and being in groups made me realize that I'm not a fundamentally messed up person. I connected with so many people after years of isolation. I wish it could last forever, but the change you've made in me is permanent.

“I started to open up and realized that I wasn’t alone.”
Right before I came to Charlie Health, I was depressed and had just gotten out of the mental hospital. When I joined Charlie Health, I was upset because I was being forced to do this therapy, so I didn’t really participate. After a few days, I realized that I had to spend so much time here anyway, so I might as well just do it and get something out of it. So I started to open up and realized that I wasn’t alone. I eventually learned the things I needed to learn and got lots of positive and helpful feedback from group members and group facilitators. I met lots of people who could relate to me, and people that I could relate to, which really did help me on my journey. I met great group facilitators who helped me get through this process and made it more enjoyable to be here!
