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'd recommend this to anyone and everyone struggling with anything in daily life or needing support for any issues.”

I have been struggling with my mental health issues for 20+ years with no luck from counseling and therapists. It took finding the right program that I truly needed to help overcome my problems such as my endless years of trauma, depression, BPD, and much more. This program helped me in more ways than one. And I couldn't be any happier and more grateful for their help and support. They helped me to heal and realize things I never did before. I could actually see myself improving and healing for the first time in my life. This program and its people saved me and my life more than once. I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone struggling with anything in daily life or needing support for any issues including mental and physical. Thank you so much Charlie health you're my savior.

“I now have the skills and coping strategies to continue successfully in my life.”

Charlie Health is by far the best thing that I did for myself. The facilitators are very personable even in a group setting. They truly care about what they do and want to see you succeed. I'm so disappointed to be leaving but I know that I now have the skills and coping strategies to continue successfully in my life.

—Amanda C.

“ So many opportunities in my life have opened up since I began my healing journey, and Charlie Health has been an integral part of my success.”

Before beginning Charlie Health's IOP, I read testimonials talking about how CH saved their lives. I was hopeful but skeptical. This extra boost of support and 12 weeks of investing in this intensive program have single-handedly revived my life from just surviving to actually living. The DBT skills were so critical. The poetry activities during the experiential therapy hour allowed me to reflect and begin radically accepting my experiences. I have been able to grow and heal so much in terms of my perfectionism, need to control, experience in a toxic work environment, relationship with my parents, and co-dependency. So many opportunities in my life have opened up since I began my healing journey, and Charlie Health has been an integral part of my success. I am grateful and looking forward to my future, my most authentic life, and being myself.

—Erin B.
