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
“It ended up being very comforting to hear other people's stories.”
Before Charlie Health I was not in a very good relationship. It took a huge toll. I ended up having to go to the hospital, and that’s when Charlie Health was recommended to me. I’d never done group sessions, so I was really nervous, but it ended up being very comforting to hear other people’s stories. After treatment, I met up with my ex, and he said he wanted to get back together, but I told him I didn’t trust him in the way I needed for a relationship. I never expected to be able to stick up for myself, and it definitely showed how much I changed through Charlie Health.

“The group really gave me validation and helped encourage me.”
I came to Charlie Health via a referral from previous care. What I noticed in my past treatment is that there are people coming in for all sorts of different reasons. At Charlie Health, I was placed in a group that I was much more easily able to relate to. The group really gave me validation and helped encourage me to take the steps I needed for my mental health. Also in my previous treatment, I didn’t have individual therapy, so coming to Charlie Health, the combination of encouragement from group members and the trauma-processing in individual therapy helped me get to a much better point in my recovery journey.

“They got me into orientation and group sessions within 2 days of my initial contact with them.”
I came into Charlie Health on the rebound of another major breakdown in my mental health because of a variety of difficulties in my life. After 6 months of roadblock after roadblock trying to get into an outpatient program, I finally found Charlie Health, and they got me into orientation and group sessions within 2 days of my initial contact with them, which was bewildering after 6 months of struggle! I was initially assigned to a trauma-focused group, which was a wonderful experience, but for my own goals in the program, I chose to switch to the skills-focused group. I loved both of the groups I was in, and we all formed a bond and a small community pretty immediately. The support and companionship I received from my group over the weeks was invaluable. That, paired with the wonderful individual therapist I've had and a psychiatrist who was very supportive of and focused on my goals, made this program a WONDERFUL experience for me. Everyone in my life has told me how much brighter and more present I seem now, and I also feel that positivity about myself!
