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 met so many wonderful people.”
Charlie Health helped me through a difficult period in my life. The speed with which they were able to get me through intake and into treatment was impressive and really helpful during a time of crisis. The resources were great. The facilitators are fantastic, and the educational pieces were helpful. Doing art therapy was really helpful for me and something I will take into my daily life after Charlie Health. Getting to know other women with very similar backgrounds to me was amazing and so healing. I met so many wonderful people. The services are impressive, and I'm really glad I got to be here. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who's in a dark place.

“It's worth it.”
My experience at Charlie Health was incredible. My individual therapist was pivotal in my healing journey as she helped me to understand my emotions and work through not only my traumas, but also deal with my anxiety. Charlie Health’s experience helped to learn that these feelings, such as depression and anxiety, are a part of me, but that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. I can control them and cope with them and live on with them, and most of all, study them and understand them. Groups were also delightful. I got to meet such a wonderful breadth of beautiful individuals whom I could listen to in their own healing journeys. Although it was quite intensive, it was positive overall. Charlie Health was an extremely great experience. It can be a long process, but in the end, it's worth it.

“If a time ever came again when I needed intensive mental aid, I'd gladly return to Charlie Health.”
I didn't know what to expect when I first joined Charlie Health. I felt a lot of anxiety initially. Since going through my treatment, though, I've seen improvements, felt better, processed better, and overall started doing so much better than at the start. I'm grateful for Charlie Health, and if a time ever came again when I needed intensive mental aid, I'd gladly return to Charlie Health and recommend it to friends and family.
