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 have found myself again, my personality is back and shining brighter than ever.”
I have never been one to do therapy because I had never tried it. I came to Charlie Health because I felt like I was drowning. I was being held under and could not come up for air. What brought me to Charlie Health was the trauma I experienced during my daughter’s birth. I came into Charlie Health not thinking I could get out of the hole I was in. But through the weeks and the skills, I was taught how to manage and cope with my diagnosis and learn how to set goals and crush them!! I have gone above and beyond my expectations and am now ready to start my next chapter of this journey of mental health. As a previous non-believer or action taker on my mental health, I can truly say that Charlie Health and its program taught me skills I knew I had but reminded me how to use them. It has shown me that it will always be a journey; there will be good times and bad times, it’s how you choose to navigate through the times and the journey. Every day is a new day, and every day, I can choose to do better for myself and my family! This journey does not end here! It will continue to be the way I live. I now can accept that some days just might be harder than others, and that’s okay!! I am teaching myself and my children how to better understand life and why we are here! I will continue to search within myself to find my purpose in this lifetime now. This is only just the beginning. I have so much more to do and see!! I am meant for way more than just this. I am changing many generations of patterns, and doing it the best I know how to, while being guided a little along the way. I have had multiple “awakenings” through the years, I just didn’t know what they were then… but now I am back on the right path and ready to soar! I have found myself again, my personality is back and shining brighter than ever. I have a newfound love for my family and my adventures that are going to come because of the growth and healing I have done! This is your reminder that you can do anything as long as you put in the work, and continue to put in the work!!

“If it wasn’t for Charlie Health, I know I wouldn’t be here today.”
I was very skeptical about starting Charlie Health. I was unsure about a group setting, the number of hours I had to commit to, and it being virtual. It took me some time to open up, but it was life-changing once I got comfortable. I had to put in a lot of work to get to where I am now, but if it wasn’t for Charlie Health, I know I wouldn’t be here today. I was lucky enough to work with Brookie; she is the best facilitator, and I wish I could still work with her after discharge. She helped make my experience amazing. Fourteen weeks ago, I didn’t think I would be here to write this testimonial, but thanks to Charlie Health, I am. I would recommend this program to anyone, no matter what you are going through or have been through. There is a place for everyone here.

“Charlie Health is the primary reason I have been able to make positive changes in my life.”
I came into Charlie Health very sick and concerned with my future. After only a week, I was already using new skills I had learned, and connecting with my group members in healthy ways. I have never felt more supported than when I was in my group setting. Having an individual therapist on top of group also helped with my extra needs that I was unable to cover in group. Unlike some therapy, I am able to perform different skills to regulate my mental health. I am confident that Charlie Health is the primary reason I have been able to make positive changes in my life and continue living every day to its fullest.
