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 now know that I am worthy.”
13 weeks ago, I was ready to take my life. I was ready to end it all. From the built up anger, pain, grief, everything I ever carried, I was ready to let it all go. It took a near-fatal overdose to finally realize I needed help. I was optimistic about this program, but I didn’t care to open up or to hear other people's opinions at first. After week one, though, I had my first break through because I finally admitted that I wear a mask to cover my pain up. But I don't have to. Having group therapy has made things easier. Having that support from people that deal with the same things as me and knowing I’m not alone in the world has been amazing. If you put in the work, I strongly believe you can achieve so many new things. You'll be able to be the real you. Because of Charlie Health, I now know that I am worthy.

“I was able to stay on campus while doing Charlie Health.”
I was at a really low point during my junior year of college, but I was able to stay on campus while doing Charlie Health. I could take care of myself in the morning, have a mid-day session, and then spend the whole evening doing extracurriculars. It felt too good to be true. Charlie Health taught me skills that I use every single day; things that I don’t even think about anymore. Now I can advocate in relationships and regulate my feelings.
