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.

People in crisis are struggling to find the mental health treatment they need. At Charlie Health, we’re creating serious, effective, and accessible solutions.

Our treatment programs, including our virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), combine personalized care with peer connection to foster long-term healing.

In their words

What our clients say

“I'm now able to resist my urges to self-harm.”

For a long while, I'd been struggling with mental health issues, with suicidal thoughts and self-harm issues as a result of mental abuse. There was a big incident where I tried to severely harm myself. I was put into Charlie Health, and it was a good experience for me. I'm now able to resist my urges to self-harm, and my family relationship have gotten better. The healing process is hard, but it gets easier by the month.

—Alice B.

“I no longer feel that deep sense of emptiness and hopelessness.”

I didn't want to die, but I didn't know how to keep living anymore and I couldn't see a way out. How can I possibly describe what it means to no longer be stuck there? I no longer feel that deep sense of emptiness and hopelessness that that I have carried for 20 years? I wish I could sum up this experience in a small blurb, but some things can only be felt. Trust the process. Clichés exist for a reason.

—Charlie Health Alum

“Groups taught me incredible concepts and coping skills.”

Charlie Health was an amazing program to bridge my time in mental health inpatient care to my day-to-day life. I had the most thoughtful individual therapist which truly gave me hope in the mental health system. The process and alternative therapy groups taught me incredible concepts and coping skills. The care team is extremely responsive, which never made me feel alone. I am so grateful for this program and would recommend to any young adult who is looking to transform their mental health journey.
