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'm very grateful for the Charlie Health community.”
Charlie Health helped bring me back from a manic crisis. I've never considered group therapy, but at CH, it was welcoming and effective. Individual counseling helped me recover my mind and myself. Through family therapy, we began conversations we needed to have years ago. Psychiatry was also excellent. I got to try a new medication that I'm much happier with. I'm very grateful for the Charlie Health community!

“Charlie Health genuinely saved my life when I thought I was going to snap, and gave my daughter her mommy back.”
When I came to Charlie Health, my mental health was so incredibly low. I had been searching for therapy for three years that would be compatible with my insurance and I was coming up with absolutely nothing which was so disheartening because I knew I desperately needed help. I was telling my family that I was considering checking into a mental health care facility because I knew if I didn't get help soon it would be very bad for me; I could feel my control slipping and I was struggling more and more. And then I found Charlie Health. They had me in therapy within a week and they knew all the group therapies that I needed. I had the most amazing and supportive therapist, and my psychiatrists and coordinators were so amazing and helpful. Charlie Health genuinely saved my life when I thought I was going to snap, and gave my daughter her mommy back.
—Rebecca J.
“Charlie Health helped me realize that the good does exist.”
It's really frustrating that finding help is a lot of trial and error, but what Charlie Health helped me realize that the good does exist. There is always good in advocating for yourself and putting in the time for how you want to live your life, but sometimes you need outside resources to help you realize your worth when life feels like it's too much to handle. I wish I could stay in Charlie Health forever. The group members and overall atmosphere was something I've never experienced but am so grateful to have come across.
—Rachel P.
