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.

People in crisis are struggling to find the mental health treatment they need. At Charlie Health, we’re creating serious, effective, and accessible solutions.

Our treatment programs, including our virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), combine personalized care with peer connection to foster long-term healing.

In their words

What our clients say

“After my first group session, I left smiling.”

When I got to Charlie Health, I was in a place where I did not want to accept any more help. I was fresh out of the hospital and had seen my fair share of therapists and psychiatrists. I was put in Charlie Health by hospital staff because it was the one thing I was sort of open to. After my first group session, I left smiling. That was the first time I showed a genuine smile in 7 months. It wasn't overnight or in one Zoom meeting that I felt better, but over the weeks in Charlie Health, I connected and shared with people in ways I had been very closed off to just weeks before. I loved my time here, and I looked forward to group every day. Even if I didn't share, I still enjoyed it. I love Charlie Health and thank them for getting me out of place I never thought I could.

“But then, about four and a half weeks in, the bubble popped, and I had my first “aha” moment. Things started to fall into place, and I felt human again for the first time in over two decades.”

I came to Charlie Health because I was at such a low place in my life; I felt I was dying with no way to stop the spiral and descent I was going down, but at the same time, I refused to go into another inpatient facility because of the negative, dehumanizing experience that I had before. In desperation, I reached out to a dear friend, and she recommended Charlie Health to me, so I made the call. I went in with very low expectations, and for the first few weeks, I felt I was wasting my time in these groups. But then, about four and a half weeks in, the bubble popped, and I had my first “aha” moment. Things started to fall into place, and I felt human again for the first time in over two decades. I started standing up for myself and advocating for the direction of my care. I stopped going into therapy with a prepared flowchart of how I needed the conversation to go and started truly healing. I let down my walls and shed many tears. I learned to be a human being again. I am truly thankful for my wonderful therapist, who helped me start healing the trauma I honestly thought I would never be able to heal from. I am also thankful to the plethora of group facilitators who brought unique flavors to each group they led. Most of all, I am thankful for the people I met along the way and wish kindness, love, and healing to all of them on their journeys.

“I went from like rock bottom to the highest point I’d ever been.”

I went from like rock bottom to the highest point I’d ever been at with Charlie Health. My experiences at Charlie Health definitley changed me and changed my perspective. I went into it thinking it would fix me, and I realized halfway through the program that nobody is going to fix me, there’s nothing to be fixed, I am just here to help myself and they are here to provide me with the resources to help myself. That felt eye-opening.
