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
“The group therapy helped me learn new skills to use and relate to others going through similar issues.”
When I started, I had just come out of inpatient treatment and had lost all hope in my life. The group therapy helped me learn new skills to use and relate to others going through similar issues. Individual therapy helped me process how I was feeling and helped me identify why I may be feeling the feelings I have. It also helped me come up with ways to shift my focus so I could maintain a stable mood.

When I joined Charlie Health, I was at a very low point. Charlie Health probably saved my life. The group experience was very impactful. It’s the common support and common ground that we all have. Even if we don’t all have the same traumas, we may have gone through something similar and have advice for each other. I think it’s a beautiful thing. After joining Charlie Health, I finally quit my job and started pursuing something I genuinely have a passion in.

“If someone is considering Charlie Health, it is more than worth it.”
This was an amazing experience -- the people are kind, the group facilitators are amazing to talk to, and the individual therapists are good. It made me more confident in who I am and I started the process of learning how to communicate to new folk. These nine weeks were amazing, especially after going about a year with minimal human interaction. If someone is considering Charlie Health, it is more than worth it.
—Jaden Quayle
