Online therapy in Columbia
1 in 10 adults in Missouri have a serious mental illness.
More than 90% of Charlie Health clients reported 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
“I could not have asked for a better individual therapist.”
There are so many good people here who are so willing and happy to help. I felt so heard. I met some amazing people in group. I could not have asked for a better individual therapist. Charlie Health has great resources, as well -- they were able to connect me with professionals who could continue care with me after my discharge. I am so glad I did this! I got to do a lot of healing here.

Charlie Health gave me the love and support I needed when I couldn't give it to myself.
—Dee Stahl
“I am still alive because of Charlie Health.”
I didn't realize how bad I was struggling with my mental health until I joined the Charlie Health program and realized how similar yet distinct my story was to others. Mental Health feels like something that drags you down a lot of the time but with the people from Charlie Health and the support from group therapy, I learned how to better communicate and realized how much I was holding inside and that is how I knew I had found the right place. I can honestly say that although I am not completely done with my mental health journey, I am still alive because of Charlie Health and feel like life is a lot more worth living.
