Embark Behavioral Health in Vienna, Virginia

The length of outpatient treatment depends on each youth’s particular needs and whether your adolescent or teen is attending weekly individual therapy sessions or participating in an intensive outpatient program in Vienna. On average, outpatient treatment at our clinic can last from three months to one year. If a deeper level of treatment is needed, adolescents and teens can step up a level of care to an inpatient hospitalization treatment program.    

The main difference between inpatient hospitalization and outpatient treatment is the treatment setting. Our outpatient services, which include an IOP, provide a good option for adolescents and teens whose needs can be met by visiting a therapist in their local Vienna, Virginia, neighborhood while living at home and maintaining their daily routine. Inpatient hospitalization treatment is a good option for those who need to leave their home and receive dedicated 24-hour care in a hospital setting to overcome mental health issues.    

Outpatient visits to our clinic can involve weekly individual counseling sessions with one of our Vienna therapists. We also offer group therapy through our intensive outpatient program. During these treatment options, our therapists will use therapeutic techniques such as DBT and TF-CBT that will help your adolescent or teen overcome mental health challenges.  

The goal of outpatient therapy at our program is to help adolescents and teens overcome difficult behavioral health issues like anxiety and depression through a series of visits to one of our Vienna therapists for weekly individual counseling sessions or an intensive outpatient program.

There are many benefits to outpatient treatment at our Vienna clinic. Our program allows adolescents and teens to maintain work and school schedules and receive support from friends and family while receiving counseling — and at a more affordable cost on average than most inpatient treatment options.    

Outpatient therapy at our Vienna program involves treatment using therapeutic techniques such as DBT and TF-CBT, which can be provided to your child in their neighborhood while they maintain their daily schedule. For adolescents and teens who have moderate mental health symptoms and a daily routine that’s not negatively impacting their mental health, outpatient therapy may be a good option.
