What is Charlie Health?

Charlie Health provides a level of behavioral healthcare that is typically more structured and intensive than traditional weekly therapy.

The goal of Charlie Health 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 our 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 our program is family involvement. Our model’s family therapy component teaches communication and coping skills to create a more supportive home environment both during and after treatment.

Who is Charlie Health for?

People with ongoing mental health issues or in a mental health crisis

Charlie Health 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.

Life-saving mental health treatment when you need it most

People in crisis are struggling to find the mental health treatment they need. At Charlie Health, we’re creating serious, effective, and accessible solutions.

Our treatment programs combine personalized care with peer connection to foster long-term healing.

In their words

What our clients say

“I was completely afraid of coming into group and did not expect it to help me the way it did.”

When I started at Charlie Health, I wasn't even aware of how low I felt. I was dealing with PTSD, overwhelming anxiety, and depression. I was completely afraid of coming into group and did not expect it to help me the way it did, but I was wrong. I have made incredible friendships throughout this process and received support I wasn't aware I needed. After completing Charlie Health, my depression and anxiety symptoms are now considered moderate, which feels like a miracle.

“Charlie Health genuinely saved my life when I thought I was going to snap, and gave my daughter her mommy back.”

When I came to Charlie Health, my mental health was so incredibly low. I had been searching for therapy for three years that would be compatible with my insurance and I was coming up with absolutely nothing which was so disheartening because I knew I desperately needed help. I was telling my family that I was considering checking into a mental health care facility because I knew if I didn't get help soon it would be very bad for me; I could feel my control slipping and I was struggling more and more. And then I found Charlie Health. They had me in therapy within a week and they knew all the group therapies that I needed. I had the most amazing and supportive therapist, and my psychiatrists and coordinators were so amazing and helpful. Charlie Health genuinely saved my life when I thought I was going to snap, and gave my daughter her mommy back.

“They got me into orientation and group sessions within 2 days of my initial contact with them.”

I came into Charlie Health on the rebound of another major breakdown in my mental health because of a variety of difficulties in my life. After 6 months of roadblock after roadblock trying to get into an outpatient program, I finally found Charlie Health, and they got me into orientation and group sessions within 2 days of my initial contact with them, which was bewildering after 6 months of struggle! I was initially assigned to a trauma-focused group, which was a wonderful experience, but for my own goals in the program, I chose to switch to the skills-focused group. I loved both of the groups I was in, and we all formed a bond and a small community pretty immediately. The support and companionship I received from my group over the weeks was invaluable. That, paired with the wonderful individual therapist I've had and a psychiatrist who was very supportive of and focused on my goals, made this program a WONDERFUL experience for me. Everyone in my life has told me how much brighter and more present I seem now, and I also feel that positivity about myself!
