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?

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

“Groups taught me incredible concepts and coping skills.”

Charlie Health was an amazing program to bridge my time in mental health inpatient care to my day-to-day life. I had the most thoughtful individual therapist which truly gave me hope in the mental health system. The process and alternative therapy groups taught me incredible concepts and coping skills. The care team is extremely responsive, which never made me feel alone. I am so grateful for this program and would recommend to any young adult who is looking to transform their mental health journey.

—Patricia N.

“Charlie Health gave me the space I needed to develop coping skills that I can use and apply in everyday situations.”

Four months ago, I was in the darkest place that I've ever been in. I was struggling with my job, and the constant stress was causing me to experience the worst decline in my mental health that I've ever had. It was bad enough that I needed to go to the hospital for a few days. Since being discharged, I left my job as a hospital nurse, I started intensive outpatient therapy, and I finally made time to take care of myself. Charlie Health gave me the space I needed to develop coping skills that I can use and apply in everyday situations. I was able to process aloud with my individual therapist and with others who are going through similar experiences. Now, I have a job that I finally feel will provide me with the balance that I was missing in my previous job.

—Emma H.

“My mental health has changed for the better.”

I went from having panic attacks several times a week without any coping skills to having panic attacks once a week or less with strategies to use. Before Charlie Health, no one was able to help me find any solutions to my extreme panic attacks. My mental health has changed for the better because of the services at Charlie Health.
