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.

“I have learned to love myself and give myself grace.”
When I first started Charlie Health, I suffered from severe depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse, and social anxiety. Charlie Health taught me great things to keep me on track in my recovery journey. I now have the tools and skills to make positive changes in my life! I have learned to love myself and give myself grace!! Also, the group sessions helped tremendously in dealing with my social anxiety. I now feel more comfortable communicating with others without substances! Thank you all for everything you do.

“Very empowering and validating.”
I started Charlie Health in a very, very dark state. I was so low that I didn't know what to do. Slowly, as I learned to open up in group and implement some of the strategies covered, I gained more tools to be able to combat my obstacles. I am far from cured or even better than where I've always been, but for the first time, I feel like i have the methodology to get there. It's been very empowering and validating, I've learned so much about myself here.
