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
“Charlie Health really helped me find myself.”
Charlie Health changed my life. I've struggled with grief and mental health for a while. Charlie Health really helped me find myself and stop burying my feelings. I didn't know what to do after losing my baby; I didn't know how to continue to be a mom to my girls or a partner. However, I learned to navigate my feelings and emotions, have fewer panic attacks, and be happy even in bad moments. Thank you, Charlie Health. This is only the beginning, and I can't wait to continue to grow.

“I now have the resources and skills I need to leave my house.”
I have dealt with severe anxiety my whole life. It didn't start affecting me until this past year when I developed agoraphobia, which led to me being fully home-bound. I was depressed that I was missing out on everyday teen things, and anxious every time I thought about leaving my home. It wasn't until I started going to groups at Charlie Health that I started to gain the confidence to start exposure therapy and begin my recovery journey. In only 3 months of being at Charlie Health, I was able to go on a 7-hour car ride with my family. After Charlie Health, I now have the resources and skills I need to leave my house and feel comfortable to be a functioning member of society.

“ So many opportunities in my life have opened up since I began my healing journey, and Charlie Health has been an integral part of my success.”
Before beginning Charlie Health's IOP, I read testimonials talking about how CH saved their lives. I was hopeful but skeptical. This extra boost of support and 12 weeks of investing in this intensive program have single-handedly revived my life from just surviving to actually living. The DBT skills were so critical. The poetry activities during the experiential therapy hour allowed me to reflect and begin radically accepting my experiences. I have been able to grow and heal so much in terms of my perfectionism, need to control, experience in a toxic work environment, relationship with my parents, and co-dependency. So many opportunities in my life have opened up since I began my healing journey, and Charlie Health has been an integral part of my success. I am grateful and looking forward to my future, my most authentic life, and being myself.
