Online therapy in Portland
Oregon has the highest prevalence of mental illness in the country.
In Oregon, 90% of Charlie Health clients with severe depression saw improvements in their symptoms.
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 was hesitant to start therapy through Charlie Health initially due to the virtual aspect; however, that hesitancy quickly disappeared.”
I came to Charlie Health because I was struggling with every aspect of my life. I was hesitant to start therapy through Charlie Health initially due to the virtual aspect; however, that hesitancy quickly disappeared when I started my first group session. My group sessions, individual therapy sessions, and psychiatry sessions have been so supportive and have provided me with many resources, tools, and perspectives that I will carry with me on my ongoing mental health healing journey. I feel like I can take care of myself, be more genuine, emotionally regulate myself, and better interact with and communicate my needs to others. As a bonus, the award/unicorn points I received through attendance and participation in this program enabled me to get an art therapy exercises book and a beautiful journal. It is bittersweet to be finished with Charlie Health, and I am really looking forward to alumni groups for continued support.

“Coping skills are literally a lifesaver.”
While no, Charlie Health didn't fix my life haha, I feel I am leaving with a refresher on how my life isn't as doomed as it sometimes feels. More than just being told there are other people out there like me, I got to experience the people themselves, hear their stories, share mine, and be heard. It helped me feel like, once again, maybe I can do this even if it feels like it's getting harder every day. I know there are others fighting the same fight and that I can do it even if it feels impossible. Coping skills are literally a lifesaver, and I hope more people can learn and utilize them, especially in the world we currently reside in. It's not over.

“If it wasn’t for Charlie Health, I know I wouldn’t be here today.”
I was very skeptical about starting Charlie Health. I was unsure about a group setting, the number of hours I had to commit to, and it being virtual. It took me some time to open up, but it was life-changing once I got comfortable. I had to put in a lot of work to get to where I am now, but if it wasn’t for Charlie Health, I know I wouldn’t be here today. I was lucky enough to work with Brookie; she is the best facilitator, and I wish I could still work with her after discharge. She helped make my experience amazing. Fourteen weeks ago, I didn’t think I would be here to write this testimonial, but thanks to Charlie Health, I am. I would recommend this program to anyone, no matter what you are going through or have been through. There is a place for everyone here.
