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
“I have been at ease for the first time in my life.”
Charlie Health has genuinely helped me get out of my near-decade rut. I was given wonderful doctors, therapists, and groupmates. In the group, everyone was helpful and encouraging, as well as a fun outlet to socialize with. My primary therapist was friendly and understanding, and my psychiatrist prescribed me meds that have helped me tremendously. I was able to get a diagnosis for a handful of things that explained so much, and I have been at ease for the first time in my life.

“All the staff members were AMAZING.”
This was a LONG journey. It was well worth it. When I initially checked into rehab I did not feel I had an issue. After being released from rehab and joining Charlie Health I was a bit standoffish and eventually opened up. I learned a lot from my classmates. The only advice that I can give is to open up and if you are comfortable, make connections and keep in contact. Everyone needs a support system and you never know who you can relate to. All the staff members were AMAZING, and I look forward to helping the Alumni group from time to time. Everyone stay strong and continue to fight this fight!!!

“It's worth it.”
My experience at Charlie Health was incredible. My individual therapist was pivotal in my healing journey as she helped me to understand my emotions and work through not only my traumas, but also deal with my anxiety. Charlie Health’s experience helped to learn that these feelings, such as depression and anxiety, are a part of me, but that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. I can control them and cope with them and live on with them, and most of all, study them and understand them. Groups were also delightful. I got to meet such a wonderful breadth of beautiful individuals whom I could listen to in their own healing journeys. Although it was quite intensive, it was positive overall. Charlie Health was an extremely great experience. It can be a long process, but in the end, it's worth it.
