Online therapy in Columbia

More than 90% of Charlie Health clients reported improvements in their most severe mental health 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 very unstable and this program, specifically the group sessions, have helped me the most which was a shock to me.”
I have never tried group therapy before and was super hesitant and scared. After about 2 sessions with the group all of that changed. I am so happy to have met such wonderful people and hope to stay in contact after the program. I was very unstable and this program, specifically the group sessions, have helped me the most which was a shock to me as I was extremely scared of group.

We previously saw a therapist in an office setting, but the provider there mostly told my daughter that what she was doing was wrong. At Charlie Health, the therapists and the groups didn’t judge her. They listened to her, asked her how she felt, and guided her to better coping mechanisms.

“We know our patients are in good hands.”
We appreciate the ability to offer quality care that we trust in a form that is accessible and will increase our patients’ chances of follow through. Charlie Health works closely with our clinical team to meet the needs of the population we serve. We know our patients are in good hands when they leave us.
