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.

Life-saving mental health treatment when you need it most

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

“The skills and exercises I've learned have already begun transforming my daily life, empowering me to embrace this new journey with newfound self-confidence.”

As a first-time mom, I knew changes were bound to happen; however, I did not expect these changes and feelings to impact me the way that they did. Stepping into therapy for the first time felt daunting, but Charlie Health has truly been a blessing. I can't imagine where I'd be without the support and understanding I've received. I'm deeply grateful for the safe space created for us to express our feelings and share our struggles, thoughts, and the realities of mom life. Reminding me that it is COMPLETELY normal to feel how I've been feeling. The guidance and encouragement from the team have been invaluable during these challenging times. I will forever be grateful to the team! The skills and exercises I've learned have already begun transforming my daily life, empowering me to embrace this new journey with newfound self-confidence. Thank you for being a beacon of hope and support. Together, we are building a happier future, one step at a time.

“Charlie Health succeeded where other programs failed me.”

Charlie Health provided me with an invaluable sense of safety and community as an LGBT+ person. It is so hard for people to seek mental health treatment to begin with and being a part of marginalized communities can make that even more difficult. Charlie Health succeeded where other programs failed me in making me feel safe and secure in my identity, and with connecting me with other people who shared my identities and struggles and could really empathize and provide helpful feedback.

“You guys really made going to therapy easy for me.”

Charlie Health has been wonderful! You guys really made going to therapy easy for me. I needed that and so do many others! It was refreshing to find such ease and lack of barriers to receive care! And It is so nice to know that post-treatment, I can attend the alumni groups. This is wonderful work! You all are angles! Thank you to everyone at Charlie Health and those I got the opportunity to be in group with and befriend! Much peace and love to you all and to all whom are beginning this journey! I wish you all my best!:)
