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 am leaving the program feeling hopeful about life, with more coping skills, and with strategies for reframing thought patterns.”
When I started in Charlie Health, I was suicidal and staying with a family member as part of my safety plan. I cannot say enough how grateful I am for Charlie Health. I am leaving the program feeling hopeful about life, with more coping skills, and with strategies for reframing thought patterns. Thank you!!

“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 finally met people I could connect with .”
I never wanted treatment because I didn't want to get better. But after signing up for Charlie Health and engaging in group, I finally met people I could connect with. Opening up and sharing was hard, but once I gained a connection with them, I was staying for them. Charlie Health is an amazing support system that help me get through some of the hardest parts of my life.
