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.

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, including our virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), combine personalized care with peer connection to foster long-term healing.

In their words

What our clients say

“I plan to bring this newfound confidence into the rest of my life using the skills I've learned.”

I knew that I needed longer-term help than a short hospital stay could provide. I then found Charlie Health, whose virtual groups really appealed to me, given my current work and home life. From the first group session I attended, I connected with people, made a few real friends even, and was able to focus on my growth knowing I could open up to people who really understood me. I got out of my shell. I plan to bring this newfound confidence into the rest of my life using the skills I've learned and remembering the growing support network I've made. Thank you, Charlie Health, for everything that you do.

“I feel much lighter than I did before.”

My mental health has been a weight for a while. At first, it felt like no one took me seriously. Sometimes it still does, but since seeking treatment, I feel much lighter than I did before. Charlie Health has helped me find wonderful friends and provided me with kind, wise people who listen to my problems and provide great feedback and advice. I enjoyed my time getting to know fellow group members and I feel a lot happier.

—Charlie Health Alum

“Charlie Health succeeded where other programs failed me.”

Charlie Health provided me with an invaluable sense of safety and community as an LGBT+ person. It is so hard for people to seek mental health treatment to begin with and being a part of marginalized communities can make that even more difficult. Charlie Health succeeded where other programs failed me in making me feel safe and secure in my identity, and with connecting me with other people who shared my identities and struggles and could really empathize and provide helpful feedback.
