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 program saved my life.”

I came to CH with so much trauma and undiagnosed mental health issues. I couldn't see how things could possibly get better for me, but Charlie Health gave me reason to keep going, to keep trying. This program saved my life.

—Elora D.

“I can safely say Charlie Health has drastically improved my life.”

Midway through my sister's time at Charlie Health, I also decided to join for my substance use. Looking at the progress I've made, the skills I've learned in group therapy, and the fun I've had with my family in family therapy, I can safely say Charlie Health has drastically improved my life. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who may be dealing with neurodivergence, family issues, self-image issues, depression, anxiety, and many more problems that therapy may be able to solve and subdue.

—Sean Hernandez

“There is no way that you will leave this program without making positive changes.”

Charlie Health opened my mind to the whole group therapy thing. I was very hesitant when I joined initially, but the facilitator's and fellow group members quickly made me feel comfortable and more willing to share and be more open minded. I would highly recommend this program to anyone - yes, it is time consuming; but if you put in the time and effort, there is no way that you will leave this program without making positive changes and experiencing true support and understanding.

—Etienne S.
