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.

In their words

What our clients say

“ I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone struggling with anything in daily life or needing support for any issues.”

I have been struggling with my mental health issues for 20+ years with no luck from counseling and therapists. It took finding the right program that I truly needed to help overcome my problems such as my endless years of trauma, depression, BPD, and much more. This program helped me in more ways than one. And I couldn't be any happier and more grateful for their help and support. They helped me to heal and realize things I never did before. I could actually see myself improving and healing for the first time in my life. This program and its people saved me and my life more than once. I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone struggling with anything in daily life or needing support for any issues including mental and physical. Thank you so much Charlie health you're my savior.

“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.

“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.
