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
“This experience was definitely life-changing.”
I entered Charlie Health after I was inpatient at a psychiatric hospital for 8 days. I had thoughts of hurting myself and wanting my life to simply end. At first in Charlie Health, I was closed off and didn’t want to be there. Then I started to open up and I was very much satisfied with how kindly I was treated. I felt at home. I started talking a lot more with the people that were in my group and felt instantly connected with everyone. The group facilitators made it very safe and calm and would always help me and everyone else who needed anything. This experience was definitely life-changing. I have learned so much and so many different ways to cope with everything I fight on a daily basis. I am honestly so blessed that I was able to be the client of all of you, thank you so much!

“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.

“My primary therapist was amazing.”
"Charlie Health was a great experience. The groups provided a safe space for me to talk about my issues and they always set me up with people that were struggling with the same things as me, allowing us to develop a natural rapport. The group facilitators did a great job understanding our feelings and guiding us through the topics, clearing up any confusions we had, as well as being open to new ideas from our own experiences as well. At no time did I feel judged or pressured. My primary therapist was amazing; she was kind and smart, and she every week should would challenge me to see my mental health from a different perspective. She helped with a lot of methods to tackle my anxiety, and I will always remember the lessons and conversations we had. "
