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 andsupport than can be provided through once-weekly therapy, but who do not require the level of care provided through residential or inpatient treatment.

“Charlie Health's diverse team and groups made it easy to have a safe space for me to open up.”
Charlie Health has impacted me in so many positive ways. Not only have I gained many new coping skills, but I have a newfound confidence thanks to Charlie Health's group therapy. I thought I'd never be comfortable sharing and connecting with others, but over time, I was able to connect and learn so much from others. Charlie Health's diverse team and groups made it easy to have a safe space for me to open up.

“You are not alone in questioning yourself.”
I grew up fearing disappointment or failing to meet expectations. I then lived out my high school years feeling like I might disturb others in my classes and more. I feared being ostracized and forgotten, whether intentional or not. I didn’t want to disappoint anyone and I felt I needed to prove myself to them. But because of the unconditional support within this program and from those I've since learned to grow close to and love (like my friends and family), I question myself less. So believe me, you are not alone in questioning yourself. I hope people take the time for this program and speak their emotions out. May it be traumatic, depressing, painful, or confusing... whatever you are dealing with, know it’s okay to feel such feelings.
