Mental Health Residential Treatment in Virginia

AMFM’s Residential Mental Health Facilities in Virginia are developed to provide a higher level of care and treatment options for those struggling with mental health disorders and substance use disorders. Residential inpatient facilities offer a combination of group and individual therapies to help clients overcome their struggles in a safe environment. With mental health disorders and substance abuse, inpatient facilities can be useful, because they provide 24/7 access to health care on-site, and when necessary, stabilization and detoxification. 

While AMFM offers both inpatient and outpatient treatment, residential treatment provides support services around-the-clock, with a more regular and immersive experience designed to foster behavioral growth and recovery. AMFM’s Virginia facilities are psychiatric residential treatment centers equipped to provide stable, safe environments for individuals with mental health conditions, substance use disorders,and/or co-occurring disorders. As dual-diagnosis facilities, these residential treatment centers provide holistic care to set clients up for success, from admissions to aftercare.

AMFM strives to help you or your loved one build reliable coping mechanisms, unlock a higher quality of life and to grow behavioral health tools, creating long-term recovery that lasts beyond your residential stay. Searching for a reliable residential treatment center can be emotional, overwhelming and confusing, with many options and directions. The AMFM team is trained to help you every step of the way, but especially in taking these first few scary steps: the initial intake through the admissions process.

Mental Health Disorders and Conditions for Treatment

It’s estimated that more than one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness.1

AMFM has extensive experience treating mental health conditions and substance use disorders through dual diagnosis treatment and evidence-based therapies, including but not limited to the following:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • ADHD
  • Bipolar Disorder
  • Mood Disorders
  • Psychosis 
  • Schizophrenia
  • Panic Attacks

Upon admittance to an AMFM residential facility, clients are treated with the utmost attention and respect, without shame or judgment.

Addiction and Substance Use Disorder Treatment

While AMFM is a mental health treatment organization, these residential treatment facilities are trained and equipped to handle dual diagnosis, which refers to the “simultaneous presence of a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder in the same individual.”2
In some cases, partial hospitalization (PHP) may be required to help a client detox. Detoxification helps bring you or your loved one to a point of stabilization, and enables mental health treatment to be more effective. Clinicians at AMFM are available 24/7 to ensure safe stabilization and medication management through detox, as clients transition to their day-to-day mental health programming. 

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 for an adverse drug event, such as overdosing, underdosing, or missing medications, or other important contextual factors limiting adherence.3 At AMFM, safety is crucial to providing effective dual diagnosis mental health programming.

Whether you or a loved one are struggling with alcohol addiction, opiate addiction, or any other substance use disorder, the AMFM team is trained with resources and personalized treatment plans per the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM)4. With over a decade of experience focusing on people-centered recovery, AMFM keeps compassion and empathy at the forefront of your mental health journey.

An Average Day at a Virginia Residential Mental Health Treatment Center

AMFM recognizes the importance of patient-centered care, and works to ensure that all treatment programs take an empathetic and non-judgmental approach to behavioral growth.5 At AMFM’s Virginia residential mental health programs, you or your loved one can expect a mix of therapeutic care, personalized treatment plans, and compassionate case management.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps people struggling with their mental health to restructure and reprogram their maladaptive and negative thinking processes. The effectiveness of retraining cognitive and emotional processing is a life skill that lasts long beyond a residential stay. 

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.

Group Therapy

In both inpatient and outpatient programs, group therapy is a primary form of therapy that allows people to feel less alone in their struggles, by relating to their peers. Groups can span a variety of focus-areas and backgrounds.

Equine Therapy

Equine Therapy is offered on a weekly basis at all of AMFM’s Virginia residential treatment locations. Equine Therapy has been proven to “significantly reduce PTSD and depressive symptoms three months post-treatment” according to recent studies at the Columbia University Department of Psychiatry.6
