Our Residential Treatment Program
At Amend Treatment, our residential treatment program is exclusively focused on mental well-being. We treat adults of all ages and genders who are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, complex trauma, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and other mental health challenges. We bring deep expertise and scientific rigor to provide the highest clinical standard of care to residential treatment.
Our treatment programs are offered at our two beautiful Malibu locations, which are private and equipped with everything our clients need to feel safe and focus on the work necessary to change their lives.
With more than 100 years of combined treatment experience, our team knows there is no one-size-fits-all plan that works for each Client. Our residential program combines the best of traditional, evidence-based, and alternative treatments, in both individual and group settings. Using this approach, you can transform your life and relationships in authentic and sustainable ways.
How You'll Work
At Amend Treatment, our singular focus is helping you recover and sustain your mental and emotional well-being. Here, you'll work with a dedicated team of therapists and staff, guided by a lead psychiatrist. Your care team will be there to support you every step of the way, providing the resources you need to initiate your healing, build on your strengths, and regain control over your life.
Once admitted, Clients complete a comprehensive assessment, discuss treatment goals, and define a four-week treatment plan. From there, you will begin daily therapy sessions, both individual and group, and latest results-focused treatment methods designed to provide the most effective outcomes.
Unlike other residential mental health treatment programs that heavily rely on cognitive therapies, Amend integrates somatic experiencing and experiential therapies to help those who may be suffering from conditions such as complex trauma and who find it difficult to tune into their own body and mind.
Where You'll Work
Amend Treatment's two Malibu locations are designed intentionally to give you a sense of peace and privacy, allowing you to focus completely on healing. Our beautiful, secluded spaces give you the freedom to do your work on your own terms. Some Clients feel more comfortable having therapy sessions by our peaceful water lily pond, while others may prefer the comfort of their own rooms. At Amend, our goal is to help you feel comfortable enough to carve out a safe space for yourself to let your guard down and do the important work needed to begin your healing journey.

Continuing Care Planning
At Amend Treatment, our care team is with you every step of the way to help you build a solid foundation and enable you to practice new behaviors, skills, and ways of being to improve your mental and emotional well-being for the long-term.
Our attention is on each client’s round-the-clock recovery needs with the goal of a successful transition home. Our experiences, supported by numerous studies, suggest that sustainable treatment results are enhanced by effective aftercare services. Therefore, Amend's clinical team works with each client to craft a bespoke aftercare plan that supports each client's successful discharge and return home.
