Our evidence-based, intensive programs set clients and families up for long-term success

Therapy once a week isn't always enough. Charlie Health's Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) combines supported groups, family therapy, and individual therapy into a series of personalized sessions multiple times per week. Our experts use research to address mental health struggles at their roots.

Intensive outpatient programming (IOP) is a level of behavioral healthcare that is typically more structured and intensive than traditional weekly therapy. It is designed for individuals who need more treatment and support than can be provided through traditional outpatient services, but who do not require the level of care provided through residential or inpatient treatment.
IOP typically involves supported groups, individual therapy sessions, and family therapy programming that is conducted several times per week. 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.

The core mental health conditions we support include anxiety disorders, behavioral issues, depression, dissociative disorders, gender identity and dysphoria, mood disorders, personality disorders, self harm, and substance use.

Clients are matched into groups based on age, maturity, and experiences to ensure a safe, supportive, and affirmative space for healing. Some of our curated IOP group tracks include:

• Victims of bullying
• Screen addictions
• Female-identifying trauma
• Substance use: active recovery
• LGBTQIA+ advocacy
• Body image
• Split-second decision making
• BIPOC-affirming care
