AM Behavioral Health Supports You on Your Journey
At AM Behavioral Health, we understand that mental health is just as vital as physical health for overall well-being. Your mental health influences how you think, feel, and behave each day.
It’s foundational for your emotional and behavioral wellness, impacting everything from your ability to handle stress to how you relate with others and make choices.
What Is Mental Health?
Mental health refers to your emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It’s not just the absence of a mental health condition, but a state of overall mental wellness.
Just like physical health, mental health exists on a continuum. We all move back and forth along that continuum over the course of our lives as we experience changes, challenges, and major life events.
Why Is Mental Health Important?
Having good mental health is absolutely vital because it impacts every aspect of how you experience the world around you. It shapes your thoughts, emotions, perceptions, and behaviors.
Strong mental health equips you to navigate life’s ups and downs with resilience. It allows you to form fulfilling relationships, adapt to change, bounce back from adversity, and live life to the fullest.
Signs of Mental Wellness
When your mental health is thriving, you’ll likely experience:
- A general sense of contentment and satisfaction with your life
- The ability to effectively manage your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
- Healthy coping mechanisms for dealing with life's stressors
- The capacity to build and maintain positive relationships
- Feeling equipped to adapt to change and deal with difficult situations
Signs of Poor Mental Health
However, we all go through periods where our mental health suffers.
If you notice any of these persistent signs, it may indicate a need for professional support:
- Lingering feelings of sadness, anxiety, or emptiness
- Excessive fears, worries, or feelings of guilt
- Withdrawing from social activities and isolating yourself
- Having trouble coping with daily problems or routine activities
- Inability to focus or think clearly
- Contemplating harming yourself or having thoughts of suicide
If You Notice These Symptoms, Don't Wait
If you’re experiencing any of these mental health warning signs, don’t wait to get help. You don’t have to struggle alone.
We’ll meet you wherever you are on your journey with personalized, compassionate care.

Mental Health Services
AM Behavioral Health’s mental health services encompass several levels of care to provide the ideal setting and intensity for your needs:
Inpatient Psychiatric Care
For those experiencing an acute psychiatric crisis, our inpatient program offers 24/7 monitoring, support, and stabilization in a safe environment. The goal is to provide medical management, regulate symptoms, and eventually transition you to a lower level of care.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
This intensive day treatment allows you to engage in a highly structured regimen of individual, group, and family therapy while living at home. You’ll develop essential coping skills and life skills to promote independence and prevent future crises.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
If you need a higher level of care, our intensive outpatient program provides three hours of group therapy several evenings per week. This flexible option still allows you to live at home and maintain your regular routine and responsibilities.
Outpatient Therapy
For those ready to step down from a higher level of care or whose needs can be met on an outpatient basis, we provide individual, group, and family counseling sessions. Medication management services are also available as needed.
Evidence-Based Treatment Modalities
At AM Behavioral Health, we utilize a variety of evidence-based psychotherapeutic approaches that have been proven effective in treating mental health conditions.
Our treatment modalities are carefully selected based on extensive research demonstrating their therapeutic benefits. You can expect your personalized care plan to incorporate one or more of the following:
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
This is a form of psychotherapy that helps identify and modify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors.
Through CBT, you’ll learn to recognize cognitive distortions, challenge irrational beliefs, and develop more adaptive ways of thinking and behaving. This empirically-validated approach is highly effective for a range of mental health issues including depression, anxiety disorders, trauma, and substance abuse.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
This combines principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy with concepts of mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, DBT provides concrete skills to better manage intense emotions, reduce impulsive behaviors, and achieve a life worth living. It has also shown great success with other conditions like PTSD, eating disorders, and substance use disorders.
Psychoeducation
This involves teaching clients about their specific mental health condition, including its causes, maintaining factors, symptoms, and treatment.
Having an understanding of the nature of one’s difficulties can reduce shame and self-blame while increasing motivation for change. Psychoeducation also equips you with essential knowledge as you learn to manage your condition.
Recreational Therapy
Recreation therapy provides evidence-based therapeutic experiences to foster resilience, enhance functional abilities, and improve overall quality of life by engaging in meaningful recreation and leisure activities. Daily stretching, mindfulness groups, expressive activities, group games, and leisure education empower individuals to reach their full potential.
Recreation therapy is effective for many symptoms of both mental health and substance use disorders.
Life Skills Training
This training focuses on building practical capabilities necessary for enhanced daily functioning and independence. You’ll develop competencies in areas like stress management, emotional regulation, interpersonal skills, problem-solving, goal-setting, and self-care.
Mastering these vital life skills promotes resilience and prepares you for successful community reintegration after treatment.
Our expert clinical team draws from these and other evidence-based modalities, thoughtfully creating an individualized treatment approach to meet your unique needs and goals. We continually incorporate the latest research into our therapeutic practices to provide the most effective mental healthcare.
