Mental Health Support in Thousand Oaks

Finding mental health support in Thousand Oaks can feel difficult when weekly therapy no longer feels like enough. You may need more structure, more privacy, or a higher level of clinical support than traditional outpatient care can provide. At Amend Treatment, we offer luxury residential mental health treatment at our private Malibu locations, a short drive from Thousand Oaks.

Our residential program supports adults experiencing complex mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex trauma, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, emotional dysregulation, insomnia, and co-occurring mental and physical health concerns. We combine evidence-based therapy, psychiatric oversight, holistic support, and neuroscience-informed modalities in a serene, restorative environment designed for focused healing.

What Makes Amend Treatment Different

At Amend Treatment, we focus exclusively on mental health and emotional well-being. We serve adults from all backgrounds and identities who need structured support for complex symptoms, life disruption, trauma, mood instability, or co-occurring concerns.

Our Malibu residential locations, Wildlife House and Portshead House, provide private, thoughtfully designed spaces where clients can feel safe, supported, and removed from the noise of daily life. Amend Treatment’s residential program includes:

  • A thorough intake and assessment process
  • A personalized four-week treatment plan
  • Daily individual and group therapy
  • Psychiatric evaluation and medication management when appropriate
  • Family therapy and continuing care planning
  • Somatic, experiential, and trauma-informed therapies
  • Nutritional assessment, stress management, yoga, acupuncture, and bodywork when clinically appropriate
  • Innovative supports such as neurofeedback and Alpha-Stim
  • A clinical team with more than 100 years of combined experience

Rather than using a one-size-fits-all model, we build each care plan around your symptoms, history, strengths, relationships, and long-term goals. This allows us to support both immediate stabilization and bigger, sustainable change.

Who May Benefit From Residential Mental Health Support Near Thousand Oaks

Residential mental health care may be appropriate when symptoms feel too intense or persistent to manage through outpatient therapy alone. Some clients come to Amend Treatment after years of trying to “hold it together.” Others come after a crisis, a major life transition, or a period of worsening anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, or emotional instability.

You may benefit from residential care if:

  • Your symptoms interfere with work, school, relationships, or daily responsibilities
  • You feel stuck despite ongoing outpatient therapy
  • You need support for trauma, complex PTSD, or emotional dysregulation
  • You experience severe anxiety, depression, mood swings, or chronic sleep issues
  • You need a private setting where you can focus fully on healing
  • You want coordinated support from therapists, psychiatrists, and wellness professionals
  • You need a step-up from outpatient care or a structured transition after a higher level of care

We approach these concerns with compassion and clinical clarity. You do not need to wait until everything falls apart to seek more support.

Our Program

A Luxury Setting Designed for Deeper Healing

Luxury treatment at Amend Treatment means more than comfort. It means creating the conditions that enable meaningful therapeutic work. Our Malibu residences offer privacy, natural beauty, calming interiors, and space to focus without the constant stimulation of everyday life.

For clients coming from Thousand Oaks, Malibu offers a nearby but distinct environment. The shift in setting can help you step outside familiar patterns, reduce distractions, and reconnect with yourself more intentionally.

Our program supports whole-person healing across emotional, physical, social, family, spiritual, and professional or academic wellness domains. This means we look beyond diagnosis alone. We consider how your symptoms affect your body, relationships, identity, responsibilities, and sense of purpose.

 

Therapies and Modalities Available at Amend Treatment

Effective mental health treatment should address both symptoms and root causes. At Amend Treatment, we use a curated blend of evidence-based, experiential, holistic, and neuroscience-informed therapies based on each client’s needs.

Your personalized plan may include:

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for trauma and distressing memories
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy-informed skills for emotional regulation and relationship patterns
  • Somatic and experiential therapies to support nervous system healing
  • Group therapy for connection, insight, and shared skill-building
  • Individual therapy for deeper personal work
  • Family therapy to support communication and relational repair
  • Medication management when clinically appropriate
  • Innovative approaches such as neurofeedback and Alpha-Stim

We use these modalities intentionally. Each therapy supports a different part of the healing process, from stabilizing symptoms to processing trauma to building healthier coping strategies for life after treatment.

Traveling from Thousand Oaks

Traveling From Thousand Oaks to Malibu and Local Mental Health Resources

For people seeking mental health support in Thousand Oaks, traveling to Malibu for residential treatment can provide privacy, separation, and a more focused clinical environment. Thousand Oaks and Malibu are close enough for family involvement when appropriate, but far enough apart to create a meaningful sense of distance from daily routines. Depending on route and traffic, the drive from Thousand Oaks to Malibu often takes about 25 to 30 minutes.

Many clients and families choose to drive or use rideshare transportation for admissions, family visits, or treatment-related coordination. Public transportation may be less direct, so our admissions team can help you think through timing and logistics before your arrival.

If you or someone you love needs immediate or community-based support in Thousand Oaks, local resources include:

These resources can help in moments of distress, but they do not replace residential treatment when symptoms require a higher level of care.

Our Luxurious Residential Care

Continuing Care After Residential Treatment

Healing does not end when residential treatment ends. At Amend Treatment, we begin continuing care planning while you are still in treatment so you can return home with structure, resources, and a realistic plan for ongoing support.

For some clients, continuing care may include outpatient therapy, psychiatry, family support, wellness routines, local resources, or Amend Treatment’s virtual intensive outpatient program (IOP). Our virtual IOP includes 12 to 16 weeks of structured support, two weekly four-hour group sessions, individual or family therapy, and a low client-to-provider ratio of 12:1.

This step-down support can help clients maintain progress, practice new skills, and stay connected to care after leaving the residential environment.

    Anna H.

    A small community in Malibu, this is a group of individuals dedicated to making a difference in patient lives. Each touch point from admissions to specialists, the clinicians, the kitchen, to the clinical assistants you are handled with love and support. Managing two decades of treatment resistant depression and working through burnout from an intense performance based career, I needed a place to get grounded as well as inundate myself with professionals who could help.

      Marlon R.

      Absolutely stunning properties in a prime yet private location. The treatment environment matters and I was highly impressed. The care environment was clean and organized. The staff were friendly and dressed professionally. The chefs were cordial and accommodating. There was easy access to many tranquil activities as well as fitness activities. The frequency of the individual therapy session was top notch up to 4 times a week plus weekly virtual visits with psychiatry and psychological testing. This type of clinical focus is rare. This is a great example of premium treatment.

        Goli S.

        I helped facilitate care for a dear friend at Amend. I was skeptical about any mental health program, but was blown away by the level of care at the facility. The whole team went above and beyond to ensure comfort and the best level of care in a way that is indescribable. I really do not have anything negative to say. Every aspect of the program and facility is 100/10. I would highly recommend Amend to anyone struggling with mental health.
