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 never thought virtual therapy would work for me. I was even reluctant to start this program, but it has changed my life.”
I never thought virtual therapy would work for me. I was even reluctant to start this program, but it has changed my life. I don't live somewhere with lots of the community I am looking for, but Charlie has given me an opportunity to find and connect with people who understand me all over the country.

“Asking someone for help isn’t giving up...its refusing to give up.”
Charlie Health has helped me through most of my mental problems. You just have to give them a chance. They can help teach you how to cope with anything. For example, I learned that if you're having a panic attack, you can use the tapping method. I learned that asking someone for help isn’t giving up...its refusing to give up. It may seem like you're a bother, but in reality it only makes your health better instead of bottling it up inside. Don’t stop believing in yourself you. You can get through this :)

“I felt so comfortable and loved.”
I got out of a 90-day residential on January 31st. I started Charlie Health on February 1st, and I loved it. The group facilitators are amazing, my peers give great advice, and they love listening. I felt so comfortable and loved.
