Simi Valley residents don’t have to limit their treatment search to programs within city limits. Amend Treatment provides residential mental health care at two private Malibu locations, Wildlife House and Portshead House, where adults can step away from their usual environments and focus more fully on recovery.
Our approach brings clinical depth into an intentionally comfortable environment. Both Malibu residences are designed to offer tranquility and privacy, with inviting spaces, natural light, gardens, and amenities that help clients feel safe and supported during treatment. We believe a luxury setting should complement excellent mental health care rather than replace it.
At the center of the experience is an individualized clinical plan. Our multidisciplinary team includes licensed therapists, counselors, support staff, and psychiatric leadership, with more than 100 years of combined clinical experience.
Simi Valley, CA Mental Health Treatment
Effective residential treatment should look beyond a diagnosis. At Amend Treatment, we begin by developing a detailed understanding of your history, current challenges, strengths, and goals.
Our assessment process may incorporate psychological testing, a psychiatric evaluation, and a comprehensive biopsychosocial review. We use what we learn to build an individualized treatment plan addressing six interconnected areas of well-being:
Treatment plans may incorporate daily therapy, medication management, family therapy, nutritional assessment, stress management, and evidence-based wellness practices.
Rather than applying the same formula to every client, we select services according to the person in front of us. This individualized approach helps clients address immediate symptoms while also exploring underlying experiences and patterns that may contribute to ongoing distress.
Our Program
Our residential program is designed for adults experiencing complex mental health concerns that require more structure and support than traditional weekly outpatient therapy may provide.
We work with clients experiencing conditions and concerns such as:
Some clients arrive with a single clearly identified diagnosis, while others have experienced overlapping symptoms for years without finding an approach that produces lasting change. Our goal is to understand the full picture rather than simply treating symptoms in isolation.
Our Approach
Mental health treatment can involve more than talking through difficult experiences. Amend Treatment integrates traditional evidence-based care with experiential, somatic, holistic, and neuroscience-informed therapies when appropriate.
A personalized treatment plan may include approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which can help clients process traumatic experiences and emotional injuries connected with PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Experiential therapies can also help clients explore emotions through movement, creativity, and other forms of physical expression.
For some clients, treatment may incorporate innovative options such as neurofeedback or Alpha-Stim to complement the broader clinical plan. Yoga, acupuncture, bodywork, family therapy, medication management, and stress-management techniques may also be incorporated as needed.
This range allows our clinical team to adapt treatment as clients progress, rather than expecting a single modality to address every challenge.
Traveling from Simi Valley
Traveling away from home for residential treatment can provide both physical and emotional distance from the routines, responsibilities, and stressors connected to daily life. For some people, that separation makes it easier to concentrate fully on treatment.
Malibu is a 30-mile drive from Simi Valley, although the exact distance and travel time depend on the starting point, route, and traffic conditions. That makes Amend Treatment far enough away to offer a meaningful change of environment while still keeping clients within the broader Southern California region.
Choosing residential care in Malibu may allow clients to:
For families in Simi Valley, remaining within the region may also make involvement in treatment and discharge planning more manageable when clinically appropriate.
Our Resources
For people who remain in the Simi Valley area or need additional community support before or after treatment, local and county resources include:
These community-based resources can be an important part of ongoing support. However, when someone needs a higher level of privacy, individualized attention, and distance from the routines or stressors of everyday life, traveling from Simi Valley to Amend Treatment in Malibu can provide the space to focus more fully on healing.
