Online therapy in Minnesota
Minnesota has more hospitalizations for serious mental illness than the national average.
More than 90% of Charlie Health clients see improvements in their most severe mental health symptoms.
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
“The group therapy helped me learn new skills to use and relate to others going through similar issues.”
When I started, I had just come out of inpatient treatment and had lost all hope in my life. The group therapy helped me learn new skills to use and relate to others going through similar issues. Individual therapy helped me process how I was feeling and helped me identify why I may be feeling the feelings I have. It also helped me come up with ways to shift my focus so I could maintain a stable mood.

“The skills and exercises I've learned have already begun transforming my daily life, empowering me to embrace this new journey with newfound self-confidence.”
As a first-time mom, I knew changes were bound to happen; however, I did not expect these changes and feelings to impact me the way that they did. Stepping into therapy for the first time felt daunting, but Charlie Health has truly been a blessing. I can't imagine where I'd be without the support and understanding I've received. I'm deeply grateful for the safe space created for us to express our feelings and share our struggles, thoughts, and the realities of mom life. Reminding me that it is COMPLETELY normal to feel how I've been feeling. The guidance and encouragement from the team have been invaluable during these challenging times. I will forever be grateful to the team! The skills and exercises I've learned have already begun transforming my daily life, empowering me to embrace this new journey with newfound self-confidence. Thank you for being a beacon of hope and support. Together, we are building a happier future, one step at a time.

“I started to open up and realized that I wasn’t alone.”
Right before I came to Charlie Health, I was depressed and had just gotten out of the mental hospital. When I joined Charlie Health, I was upset because I was being forced to do this therapy, so I didn’t really participate. After a few days, I realized that I had to spend so much time here anyway, so I might as well just do it and get something out of it. So I started to open up and realized that I wasn’t alone. I eventually learned the things I needed to learn and got lots of positive and helpful feedback from group members and group facilitators. I met lots of people who could relate to me, and people that I could relate to, which really did help me on my journey. I met great group facilitators who helped me get through this process and made it more enjoyable to be here!
