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
“My primary therapist was amazing.”
"Charlie Health was a great experience. The groups provided a safe space for me to talk about my issues and they always set me up with people that were struggling with the same things as me, allowing us to develop a natural rapport. The group facilitators did a great job understanding our feelings and guiding us through the topics, clearing up any confusions we had, as well as being open to new ideas from our own experiences as well. At no time did I feel judged or pressured. My primary therapist was amazing; she was kind and smart, and she every week should would challenge me to see my mental health from a different perspective. She helped with a lot of methods to tackle my anxiety, and I will always remember the lessons and conversations we had. "

“My confidence and sense of self-worth have grown a TON.”
I have seen a lot of growth within myself, and the people around me have seen it too. Even people I'm not super close with, such as coworkers, have noticed that I am handling stressful situations a lot better than I have in the past. I have gained weight (positive), I have learned so many tools to self soothe. My suicidal ideation is next to nothing. When the thoughts do pop up, I am able to remind myself that that's not truly what I want. My confidence and sense of self-worth have grown a TON. I am so happy with the care I got from Charlie Health.

“I met so many wonderful people.”
Charlie Health helped me through a difficult period in my life. The speed with which they were able to get me through intake and into treatment was impressive and really helpful during a time of crisis. The resources were great. The facilitators are fantastic, and the educational pieces were helpful. Doing art therapy was really helpful for me and something I will take into my daily life after Charlie Health. Getting to know other women with very similar backgrounds to me was amazing and so healing. I met so many wonderful people. The services are impressive, and I'm really glad I got to be here. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who's in a dark place.
