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 andsupport 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 came out with more than I would have imagined.”
I came to Charlie Health to help manage my anxiety and depression. My goal wasn't to be completely cured in 9 weeks but at least to learn skills to help me function in life. My goal wasn't to learn to love myself and the things around me; instead, I wanted to tolerate myself and those around me. I entered Charlie Health with my mindset on the bare minimum, but I came out with more than I would have imagined. I have been able to attend school, shower, brush my teeth, and eat consistently for the past 2-3 months. Yes, I still have moments of breakdowns and moments of self-hatred, but I don't go back two steps but instead stay in the same place and ready myself before I continue to take a step forward. I haven't regressed but progressed, which is the most important thing. I have benefitted greatly by being a part of Charlie Health and am hopeful for the future.

“I now have the resources and skills I need to leave my house.”
I have dealt with severe anxiety my whole life. It didn't start affecting me until this past year when I developed agoraphobia, which led to me being fully home-bound. I was depressed that I was missing out on everyday teen things, and anxious every time I thought about leaving my home. It wasn't until I started going to groups at Charlie Health that I started to gain the confidence to start exposure therapy and begin my recovery journey. In only 3 months of being at Charlie Health, I was able to go on a 7-hour car ride with my family. After Charlie Health, I now have the resources and skills I need to leave my house and feel comfortable to be a functioning member of society.

“Through talking with group members and following the curriculum I was able to gain the confidence I needed to make some very needed drastic changes in my life.”
When I came to Charlie Health I was in a pretty rough head space. When I got comfortable with sharing I realized that I had a lot in common with fellow group members and it really made me feel validated. Through talking with group members and following the curriculum I was able to gain the confidence I needed to make some very needed drastic changes in my life for the better. This is a great place!! I would recommend Charlie Health to anyone needing help!!
