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.

In their words

What our clients say

“I've had people tell me I'll never be okay, but after this journey with Charlie Health, I've been feeling better than ever.”

I've been in and out of hospitals and different therapist for over 10 years, but nothing worked or even made a dent due to their approach. Charlie Health was short but very helpful as it is adjusted to fit your personal experience. I've had people tell me I'll never be okay, but after this journey with Charlie Health, I've been feeling better than ever.

—Charlie Health Alum

“It has honestly been a lifesaver...I love it here.”

I was unsure if I wanted to go back to therapy, but I knew I needed it as my social anxiety was going haywire almost every single day and my depression was getting worse. I couldn't find a therapist within my city that had availability or took my insurance, but then my psychiatrist suggested Charlie Health. I figured out they could help me and work around my schedule at work and school. It has honestly been a lifesaver and I am so happy that I continued with the process of showing up and working through my struggles within group and individual therapy sessions. I love it here, and if I ever need to come back, I will.

—Jazmyn S.T.

“I saw improvements every week.”

Charlie Health was an incredible experience for me. Going into the program, I was in an unbelievably dark place and was worried about my ability to not only move forward in life but exist altogether. As the program progressed, I saw improvements every week. My group became my family and support system and I'm so grateful I was able to meet and get to know them over the 12 weeks I spent in the program. They proved that we are indeed not alone in the struggles we face in life and with mental health and that knowledge will always extend to every aspect of my life now. The facilitators were amazing, my psychiatrist and individual therapist were able to guide me in such an understanding and gentle manner. Charlie Health truly saved my life in a big way, and I finally feel confident and able to take the step out of my mama bird's nest and realize the untapped potential that has existed in me all along. Thank you all, so much. I don't know where I'd be without you.
