AMFM Mental Health Treatment has over a decade of experience providing high quality medical care and treatment options for those struggling with mental health disorders. AMFM Virginia Mental Health Facilities offer a combination of group and individual therapies to help clients overcome their struggles in a safe environment. These mental health programs provide 24/7 access to health care on-site, and when necessary, stabilization and detoxification. 

Our Virginia facilities provide stable, supportive environments for you or your loved one facing mental health conditions. AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers provide holistic care to set clients up for success and long-term wellness, from admissions to aftercare.

The qualified professional care teams at AMFM Mental Health Treatment strive 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 programming. Searching for reliable mental health treatment 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.

AMFM Mental Health Treatment provides secluded and secure residential care facilities for mental health throughout Virginia. We particularly emphasize recovering in-tandem with holistic treatments, such as physical fitness, yoga, music therapy, and other alternative treatments paired with more traditional, evidence-based techniques.

Therapies Offered In Virginia

At AMFM Mental Health Treatment in Virginia, we are committed to providing a comprehensive range of therapeutic modalities tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients. From traditional modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to innovative practices such as Expressive Arts Therapy, we offer specialized treatments that support individuals in overcoming challenges and enhancing their well-being. Detailed descriptions of each therapy and their unique benefits are available further in this section.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

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. 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.1 

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. These groups can span a variety of backgrounds, including but not limited to art therapy, somatic therapy, and narrative therapy.2

Experiential Treatments

We understand that healing is a deeply personal journey, and one size does not fit all when it comes to therapy. That’s why we are proud to offer a variety of experiential therapies, designed to engage and heal the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. These therapies provide immersive, hands-on experiences that can unlock new insights and pathways to a higher quality of life. Below, you’ll find detailed information about each experiential therapy we offer, helping you or your loved one find the approach that best fits your personal path to wellness.

Somatic Experiencing

Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a therapeutic approach developed by Dr. Peter Levine that focuses on addressing and resolving trauma and stress-related disorders by paying attention to bodily sensations. SE aims to release the physical tension and stored energy associated with traumatic experiences, helping individuals restore their natural capacity for self-regulation and resilience.

Life Skills

These skills encompass a wide range of competencies, including emotional regulation, communication, problem-solving, decision-making, and self-care. Learning and developing life skills is a crucial component of the therapeutic process, helping individuals achieve greater independence and improve their overall quality of life.

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that involves the transfer of energy from practitioner to patient to enhance the body’s natural ability to heal itself through the balancing of energy. Reiki is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive.

Physical Fitness & Yoga

Physical fitness and yoga promote stress-reduction, emotional regulation, and overall well-being, contributing to improved mental health outcomes. Incorporating physical activity and yoga into a comprehensive treatment plan supports long-term mental health recovery.

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.3 This type of therapy is facilitated by trained professionals who use horses to help individuals achieve emotional growth and improve mental health.

Family Therapy

Family Visitation: Once weekly 11:30am-12:30pm EST or 5:30pm-6:30pm EST

Family visitation at our mental health treatment center occurs on Sundays, providing a supportive and structured environment for families to connect with their loved ones on-site. These visits are designed to foster healing and reinforce family bonds as part of the holistic treatment approach.

Family Programming - Saturday Morning Weekly Online

Our Saturday morning virtual family support groups provide a dedicated time for families to engage in supportive and constructive interactions, fostering stronger relationships, and enhancing the overall treatment experience.
