AMFM Mental Health Treatment

AMFM believes in going beyond traditional mental health care, offering a more personal, deeply compassionate healing experience. Their care delivers results: 87% of AMFM clients say they'd recommend the program, according to the company's 2025 outcomes data. That standard shapes the women's residential program in Lake Forest, where a maximum of 6 clients receive care for depression, anxiety, trauma, and other primary or co-occurring conditions.

Develop Skills for Long-Term Stability

Women learn to manage anxiety, process trauma, and rebuild daily structure through twice-weekly individual therapy alongside group sessions that cover cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for those who haven't found relief through medication alone. Weekly psychiatric sessions guide medication management, while twice-monthly equine therapy and weekly yoga help calm the nervous system between clinical sessions.

Grow Roots in a Lake Forest Garden Home

Up to 6 women share double-occupancy rooms in AMFM's remodeled Lake Forest home, set on a quiet, tree-lined street with a spacious backyard and garden. A weekly therapeutic gardening group anchors the outdoor space, while art, music, and narrative therapy round out the week alongside experiential outings to a museum, mini golf, or the movies. Chef-prepared meals accommodate vegan, vegetarian, medical, and kosher diets.

Receive Tailored Long-Term Support

Discharge planning starts early in a client's stay, and clinicians help arrange a step down to outpatient or partial hospitalization programming so the transition home happens gradually rather than all at once. Aftercare plans may also include family follow-up counseling, ongoing group therapy, and professional re-entry support, plus alumni events for those who want to stay connected after care ends.
