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

“Now, as I leave, I feel as though I can function in life and maybe even thrive.”

When I started CH, it was week 8 and I was lost. I was at a point in my life where I knew I needed help and I couldn't survive without it. Charlie Health introduced me to a group of people who are now my family, and I know we will always be connected. Because of that, I grew through the groups, learning coping mechanisms, breathing exercises, and even EMDR! This has brought me out of myself and helped me see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now, as I leave, I feel as though I can function in life and maybe even thrive. I know I can do this, and I accredit that to Charlie Health!!

—Shannon B.

“Charlie Health has been nothing but helpful.”

If you come into this like it’s a class, you can learn a lot. Charlie Health has been nothing but helpful and has helped me gain skills to better my mental health!

—Charlie Health Alum

“I loved my therapist and group facilitators.”

Mental health can be really dangerous when you are so deep-rooted in fear. Having this consistent support and reminders of my own worth has been so beneficial. I made beautiful art and made some of my closest friends in Charlie Health. I loved my therapist and group facilitators. They all knew how to listen and see things from another perspective. I am very grateful for that open-mindedness and overall safe place to feel my feelings.

—Emerson T.
