FAQs

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 McLean, where a maximum of 8 clients receive care for depression, anxiety, trauma, and other primary or co-occurring conditions.

Develop Skills for Long-Term Stability

Women manage symptoms, process trauma, and rebuild daily structure through three or more specialized groups each day, plus two individual therapy sessions weekly, using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). Weekly psychiatry and case management meetings, bimonthly equine therapy, music therapy, a Reiki masterclass, and twice-weekly movement therapy round out the schedule with clinical and mind-body support.

Settle into a Comfortable McLean Home

Up to 8 clients settle into primarily double-occupancy rooms, with limited single-occupancy rooms depending on availability, in a light-filled home with communal living areas, private therapy rooms, and in-house fitness equipment. A master chef and two sous chefs prepare meals with dietary accommodations, including kosher options, and the backyard offers space to unwind between sessions. Weekend outings take clients to Clemyjontri Park, Tysons Corner Center, McLean Community Center, and Great Falls Park beyond the home.

Receive Tailored Ongoing Support

Discharge planning begins early in a client's stay, and clinicians can help arrange a step down to an intensive outpatient program (IOP) or partial hospitalization program (PHP) at another AMFM location so the transition home happens gradually. Aftercare plans may also include ongoing support groups, continued therapy check-ins, family follow-up counseling, and alumni events for those who want to stay connected after care ends.

Testimonial
What brought me to A Mission for Michael was I was in a really dark place, and I was in a psych hospital for about a week, and I tried different facilities, and just nothing was really working. I knew that I needed a higher level of care. I was not as hopeful. I was like, it's another program like am I is this going to work? Is am I going to get better? And never did I think, oh, not only get back to baseline, but I'm actually going to be happier than I ever was before. So, I was a little intimidated at first. I knew everyone's kind of nervous when they first come in just cuz it's a new setting. And everyone was super welcoming, though. My favorite part was the relationships I made during my time there. Not only just with staff, but my peers bringing us together. We're all in kind of a really hard time in our lives, but we were able to connect and know that we're in it together. And the staff also was extremely helpful and knew we were in this hard time in our life and did made sure went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable, that we were receiving the services that we needed to thrive. The variety of different therapies that we got was really helpful. We always had something to do. I think the variety made it not only interesting, but it made it exciting knowing each day isn't the same, that we got to learn new aspects about ourselves, mental health treatment, my body, health, and spirituality. And it was all very impactful in helping my mental health journey. My time spent in A Mission for Michael got me to where I'm at today because I was able to use the tools and resources that they taught me through treatment in my everyday life. It taught me that I need to be honest with myself and my the mental health professionals if I really want to get the help I need. And it's a great facility. It's beautiful homes. Beautiful people run it and it actually gets to the core of like your mental illness. I end up getting the treatment I need and I'm in the place/mental health state I've always wanted to be at, that I knew I could go back to, and not only go back to, but I'm better than I ever.
