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.

What our clients say

“I’m not the same person I was before this program.”

Charlie Health has been life-changing. I’m not the same person I was before this program. The curriculum was amazing, the group pairing was perfect, and my therapist was awesome. I truly enjoyed being able to work with Charlie Health.

“I'm in such a better place now than when I first began.”

Charlie Health helped me in ways I never thought possible. The group facilitators were connected and empathetic and I could tell that they were there to support me every step of the way. I'm in such a better place now than when I first began and I am so grateful to everything they have done to help me get to this place.

—Charlie Health Alum

“The overall sense of community, even in a virtual setting, was very helpful to my recovery.”

Before I started, I saw a review online where someone mentioned "[Charlie Health] might have saved my life." I can 100% agree with this statement now that I have been through treatment myself. Charlie Health came into my life when I was at my lowest, and in the span of IOP, I have improved immensely. I felt supported for the entirety of my time in the program. The Care Team was excellent at communication; I got into a group almost immediately, and overall, everyone from Charlie Health was so attentive to my needs. I learned so much from my time in this program, and I appreciate from the bottom of my heart the love and support that I have received from the Charlie Health team. I enjoyed the diversity in the program and how we were introduced to many group therapists who all had amazing things to bring to the table. The overall sense of community, even in a virtual setting, was very helpful to my recovery. The program's flexibility allowed me to complete IOP while in school and even when I was traveling out of the state. I highly recommend Charlie Health to anyone in need of an IOP that is dedicated to your healing journey. I will be joining the alumni groups, which is another amazing thing Charlie Health offers! Thank you so much to everyone who has helped me in this challenging but rewarding process. I will continue to carry all of the things I have learned here when coping with adversity.
