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 wouldn’t be where I am today without Charlie Health.”

Charlie Health helped me so much. Participating in groups with people my age, who have gone through the same stuff that I have, really made me feel connected and not alone. When everyone around you is fighting to make progress, you want to follow along too. I wouldn’t be where I am today without Charlie Health. I’m going to miss this program, but I won’t come back to it. I’m not going to let everything I’ve done and worked towards here go to waste. I’m going to keep fighting until the battle is over, and I can raise my head in the mirror and tell myself that I’ve made it. Charlie Health, you change and save so many lives. Thank you so much for everything you did, and will continue to do.

“ I got my sparkle back; I love this version of myself.”

Before Charlie Health, I was going down a rabbit hole where my mental health was at an all-time low. I had this huge trauma cloud that began to take over my life in an extremely unhealthy manner. Charlie Health has been absolutely life-changing for me. I am now sleeping again and have fewer panic attacks and PTSD triggers. I can regulate my emotions and work through my childhood trauma. Charlie Health gave me the availability to learn how to find who I am, how to be happy, learn the skills, and be at peace even with everything I have been through. I got my sparkle back; I love this version of myself. Charlie Health saved me.

“ The program enables individuality and autonomy and always ensures that the patient's needs are met, be it financial or mental.”

Charlie Health is an amazing program with services that do NOT disappoint. They have wonderful group facilitators who understand the needs of the group in order to get the session flowing instead of just sitting in awkward silence. The program enables individuality and autonomy and always ensures that the patient's needs are met, be it financial or mental. I loved the consistency of the program and how easily accessible your mental health information is from one branch of the service to another. Charlie Health allowed me to feel supported and heard when I hadn't before in my daily life. This program made me realize that I am so much stronger than everyone made me out to be and that I can do so much more if I just put myself first. I was allowed to see my importance in the world and help others with the advice I wish I had when I was in their situation. I will be forever grateful that I got to take part in the Charlie Health program.
