Outpatient Treatment Programs Offered at AMFM Mental Health Treatment

Mental health conditions can vary in intensity and severity. That’s why it’s important to have access to different treatment options and levels of care. Outpatient mental health treatment provides a way to receive care without stepping away from your daily life entirely.

At AMFM (A Mission For Michael) Mental Health Treatment, our structured outpatient treatment gives you the flexibility to get the care and support you need while also being able to keep up with your everyday life and responsibilities.

We offer structured and supportive programs that empower you to reclaim your well-being. Depending on your care needs, we offer multiple levels of outpatient care, including:

  • Partial hospitalization.
  • Intensive outpatient.
  • Aftercare.

Outpatient Mental Health Treatment Approach at AMFM

At AMFM Mental Health Treatment, we believe that no one is treatment-resistant. Instead, our philosophy believes everyone is “treatment-persistent.” This approach to care means that our team will work with you to adapt and revise treatment until we find something that works for you.

We also take the approach that healing happens faster in connection with others, which is why our outpatient therapy programs for adults center on group work. It’s not that group-based therapy replaces individual sessions, but rather they work together to offer you effective ways to build insight, practice new skills, and feel less alone.

Our flexible mental health treatment programs create consistent therapeutic engagement while giving you the opportunity to remain engaged in your daily life.

What to Expect From Our Outpatient Care

The process of starting treatment can come with a lot of unknowns. At AMFM Mental Health Treatment, we work with you to make the process (from start to finish) feel clear and supportive. Here is what to expect from our day programs for mental health:

Step 1: Understanding Insurance Benefits and Cost

The first step in the process of enrolling in our outpatient therapy programs for adults is to verify your insurance coverage, if you have it and are using it.

At AMFM Mental Health Treatment, we work with a variety of major insurance companies to offer you the best services. Our admission staff will verify your benefits, answer any questions regarding costs and payment, and discuss out-of-pocket expenses.

If you do not have insurance or would rather pay out of pocket, we will also discuss service fees and payment options, including sliding-scale fees, so you understand outpatient mental health costs.

Step 2: Complete an Assessment and Treatment Planning

Once benefits and payment options are understood, you’ll then meet with one of our highly trained clinicians for an assessment and evaluation.

During this assessment, you’ll discuss your symptoms and how they’re impacting you and your medical and mental health history. The clinician will also ask you about your current living situation, support systems, and any goals you have for treatment.

This in-depth assessment allows them to recommend the best level of care for your needs and then, together, come up with a personalized treatment plan that meets those needs. 

Step 3: Start Getting the Support You Deserve

The final step in the process is to engage in treatment that includes:

  • Group sessions.
  • Individual therapy.
  • Family counseling.
  • Outpatient psychiatric care (if needed).

Your level of care, whether partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP), will determine how often you attend treatment.

As you progress, you and your team will adjust your treatment plan to reflect improvements or other issues you’d like to address.

Outpatient Program Structure and Weekly Schedule

AMFM Mental Health Treatment offers multiple levels of care, making it easier to find the right fit based on your needs and availability. We offer both partial hospitalization programs (PHP) and intensive outpatient programs (IOP).

  • Partial Hospitalization Program: Our PHP is the most intensive outpatient option that functions as a full-day program for mental health. If you’re enrolled in PHP, you’ll attend the program five days a week for about six hours each day. This level of care can be ideal if you need regular, structured support without full-time residential treatment.
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Our IOP program is less intense, but still offers structured support. It may be suitable if you’re stepping down from residential care or PHP, or if you’re just looking for more support than the typical weekly therapy sessions. Our IOP requires a commitment of at least three days a week, with sessions lasting three to five hours per day.

If you’re comparing IOP vs PHP mental health, the main difference comes down to time and intensity. A PHP offers more immersive daily care, while an IOP allows for greater flexibility as you reintegrate into daily life.

The most valuable aspects of our outpatient mental health treatment programs are the flexibility and accessibility. We offer in-person and hybrid care at our facilities in California, Washington, and Virginia. Our in-person outpatient treatment is from Monday to Friday, with hours dependent on location, but they can run anywhere between 9:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

However, we also provide virtual outpatient mental health programs that run seven days a week. For example:

  • On Mondays to Fridays, our virtual program goes from 6:00 AM PST to 8:30 PM PST.
  • On Saturdays, groups are from 8:30 AM PST to 3:00 PM PST, and on Sundays from 10:00 AM PST to 4:00 PM PST.

This flexibility allows you to fit treatment around your schedule and attend it from the comfort of your home.

Treatment Modalities We Use

Our outpatient programs at AMFM Mental Health Treatment combine evidence-based therapies with experiential and holistic approaches to support your whole well-being. Our clinically proven approaches include, but are not limited to: 

These therapies can help you better understand thought patterns, regulate emotions, and build healthier behaviors over time. In addition to these traditional therapies, we also include meditation and yoga, as well as art and music therapies to create other ways to process your emotions and foster new ways of coping.
