Residential Mental Health Treatment Centers

A Mission For Michael is Different. We believe in going beyond traditional mental health care by offering a more personal, deeply compassionate healing experience. Nestled in beautiful residential homes, our dedicated clinical team provides 24/7 care in a safe and supportive boutique setting with 6-8 clients per home. Our comprehensive clinical programming blends individual and group therapy with experiential therapies such as art, music, and equine therapy. In addition to psychological evaluations, we prioritize getting to know each client’s life story and personal history. This insight into their lived experience helps us craft a treatment plan that is as unique as they are, ensuring we address not just their symptoms, but the root causes of their struggles.

We are tenacious in making sure every client feels seen, heard, and cared for, with their well-being serving as our true north.

Our Approach

Personalized Care

Understanding our clients’ backgrounds is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan. Each healing journey begins with understanding our client’s personal background, and our approach starts by attentively listening to these experiences. Through comprehensive assessments, we strive to learn more about our client’s symptoms, history, challenges, and strengths. We explore clinically proven methods and approaches that align with their values. With this thorough understanding, we craft a treatment plan that precisely matches their strengths and challenges. Our treatment plans are living documents, evolving as our clients progress, ensuring that their care remains as dynamic and unique as they are.

Beyond the Medical Model

We understand that while medication can be an essential component of recovery, it should not be the sole focus. Our emphasis is on evidence-based, compassionate approaches that delve into and address the root causes of distress, complemented by medication when necessary. Our comprehensive care tackles both the symptoms and the underlying issues, fostering a more sustainable path to wellness. This holistic strategy ensures that each client receives not only immediate relief but also long-term healing.

Community and Experiential Learning

We believe in the transformative power of community and experiential learning as integral components of the healing process. Our program fosters a sense of belonging and connection among clients, facilitating shared experiences that promote emotional and psychological growth. We incorporate a variety of experiential learning activities that allow clients to apply therapeutic concepts in real-world settings, enhancing their recovery and resilience.  Through activities such as group therapy and community outings our clients not only learn from their own experiences but also gain insights from the journeys of others. This collective learning environment supports the development of critical life skills, such as communication, problem-solving, and emotional regulation, which are essential for long-term wellness.

An Array of Treatment Options

We recognize that even the most effective treatments are not one-size-fits-all, underscoring our commitment to providing a diverse array of treatment options. Our offerings range from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and more, reflecting the varied needs of the individuals we serve. We are dedicated to having effective and helpful treatments readily available for our clients, ensuring that each person receives the care best suited to their unique circumstances.
