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 in such a dark place, but now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.”
Charlie Health has saved my life. I was in such a dark place, but now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My group has supported me with everything I was dealing with and pushed me to take the right steps to improve my mental health instead of staying in the same space I had been in. Anyone who would benefit from group therapy should consider Charlie Health.

“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.

“I now have the resources and skills I need to leave my house.”
I have dealt with severe anxiety my whole life. It didn't start affecting me until this past year when I developed agoraphobia, which led to me being fully home-bound. I was depressed that I was missing out on everyday teen things, and anxious every time I thought about leaving my home. It wasn't until I started going to groups at Charlie Health that I started to gain the confidence to start exposure therapy and begin my recovery journey. In only 3 months of being at Charlie Health, I was able to go on a 7-hour car ride with my family. After Charlie Health, I now have the resources and skills I need to leave my house and feel comfortable to be a functioning member of society.
