Anxiety Treatment

We specialize in helping people when anxiety seems to be taking over their lives. Because your experience with anxiety is different from anyone else’s, your anxiety treatment plan should be, too.

Depression Treatment

Choosing AMFM Mental Health Care for depression treatment opens the door to a journey tailored uniquely to you. Our holistic approach goes beyond the usual “diagnose and medicate” medical model.

Trauma Treatment

For women recovering from trauma, treatments such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) can be transformative. Our care emphasizes creating a safe space where women can process their experiences and rebuild their lives.

Paranoia Treatment

AMFM offers a personalized approach to helping those struggling with paranoia, integrating psychotherapy and support to restore trust and peace of mind. We’re experts at providing the necessary support and interventions to treat paranoia, so you can find trust and safety in your world again.

PTSD Treatment

AMFM Mental Health Treatment provides compassionate and comprehensive care for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). We use evidence-based approaches that are known to effectively treat PTSD and offer an assortment of alternative treatment options to enhance your treatment experience during your stay.

Panic Attack Treatment

Panic attacks are a sign of underlying issues, not a weakness. They mean that your body is trying to tell you something important about your wellbeing. At AMFM Mental Health Treatment, we invite you to dream bigger than just managing your panic attack symptoms- we want you to rebuild a life filled with confidence and freedom. That’s why our panic attack treatment approach goes beyond immediate relief, focusing on long-term strategies and personal empowerment.

Our Mental Health Services and Therapy Options

As a resident at our San Juan Capistrano inpatient facility, you will have access to a comprehensive range of mental and behavioral health services tailored to meet the unique needs of women. Our comprehensive approach combines evidence-based therapies, holistic healing practices, and personalized care to address a variety of complex mental health challenges. Through individual counseling, group therapy, and specialized modalities like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), we empower women to develop coping skills, emotional resilience, and the tools necessary for lasting recovery. Our team of compassionate professionals is committed to supporting each woman’s journey toward healing, self-discovery, and long-term mental wellness.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of therapy that’s focused on restructuring and reprogramming maladaptive and negative thought processes.3 Psychologists are trained to help you change your cognitive and emotional processes in order to outgrow coping mechanisms that may no longer be serving you. CBT has been proven to help with increasing mindfulness and emotional well-being for long-term recovery.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT, or “talk therapy,” helps process emotions by talking through situations with a qualified individual, in order to move forward with healthier ways of navigating interpersonal relationships, minimizing physical and emotional stress.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR Therapy is a renowned method of reprocessing most often used in trauma therapy. By activating the prefrontal cortex through a series of bilateral stimulation, qualified professionals can lead you through traumatic experiences, helping you to alleviate the distress symptomized by trauma.4

Group Therapy

Group therapy sessions can be used to provide structured times to help you understand that you are not alone in your struggles, that your peers are also walking through these challenges, while also providing guidance, suggestions and communications from psychologists with specialized backgrounds.5

Individual Therapy

Our individual therapy sessions for adults and adolescents provide a safe, one-on-one space to explore personal challenges and develop effective coping strategies, utilizing evidence-based approaches. These tailored sessions focus on addressing root causes of mental health concerns and fostering long-term resilience.

Holistic Therapies

Our inpatient program integrates holistic therapies into our treatment plans to address the mind-body connection, using mindfulness, yoga, meditation, and nutritional guidance. These practices enhance overall well-being and complement evidence-based therapies for comprehensive healing.

Crisis Intervention and Stabilization Services

A crisis is defined by the National Library of Medicine “as an overwhelming event, which can include divorce, violence, the passing of a loved one, or the discovery of a serious illness.”6 The goal of crisis intervention is to provide safety and reduce any potential harm to an individual undergoing a crisis.

Residential Treatment

Our long-term mental health facility offers comprehensive, 24/7 residential treatment, where individuals receive round-the-clock care in a supportive environment. This approach is ideal for those seeking intensive, structured care for severe depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions at a top-rated inpatient treatment facility.

A short-term residential stay is considered under 30 days of inpatient treatment. Short-term mental health facility programming offers safety to those who may be experiencing acute symptoms, or who may require crisis intervention or stabilization. 

Long-term Treatment Plans

A long-term residential stay is considered over 30 days of inpatient treatment. Long-term mental health programming offers a more controlled environment and extensive care in the face of greater mental health challenges. Extended inpatient care helps create lasting well-being and aftercare beyond a quick reset. 

If you or a loved one is struggling, considering mental health treatment in Orange County could be the first step to a higher quality of life, for the rest of your life. You don’t have to go through this alone, we’re here to help.

We allow patients to use WiFi and personal computers during treatment. Access to WiFi can help patients stay connected with loved ones and manage personal matters, which can be an essential part of the recovery process. 

Patients should discuss with their specific house managers to understand the WiFi policy and guidelines for use. This can help ensure that connectivity supports recovery while maintaining focus on therapeutic goals. The admissions team can provide detailed information and support if you have any concerns or special needs regarding internet access.

Typically, a person should bring comfortable clothing, toiletries, and any necessary medications. Many facilities prohibit items like sharp objects, alcohol, or illegal drugs. It’s important to check the specific facility’s rules on personal items before admission. You can find an extended packing list available for your convenience.

Medication management is overseen by our team of psychiatrists and licensed clinicians. Medication management is important for clinicians to create a complete and accurate medication list, and to “help to identify patient behaviors that may be putting patients at risk.”7 At AMFM Mental Health, safety is crucial to providing effective health programming. We conduct thorough evaluations to determine the most appropriate medications, and we regularly monitor individuals to assess their effectiveness and make adjustments as needed.

Our team consists of highly qualified professionals, including board-certified psychiatrists, licensed psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, and licensed counselors. Each team member has extensive experience in mental health treatment and is dedicated to providing compassionate care.

Mental health treatment programs usually offer virtual family therapy, family support groups and resources for family members on a regular basis. At AMFM Mental Health Treatment, we know that healing and growing can take a village, and you and your loved ones are in good hands.

We offer comprehensive aftercare services, including ongoing therapy, support groups, and referrals to community resources. Clients can also transition to an intensive outpatient program (IOP) or a partial hospitalization program (PHP), after inpatient programming if desired. Outpatient treatment can help support you or your loved one in this transitionary time. Our goal is to ensure a smooth transition back to daily life and continued support in maintaining mental wellness.
