If you’re reading this, you’re most likely a parent searching for support with your teen. Let me assure you - Embark can help. With their support, things will get easier. Embark’s approach – combining group sessions, DBT skills, individual therapy, and psychiatric support – gives teens the sense of ownership over their own recovery that so many of them need in order to begin to thrive again. My son learned the skills necessary to manage his mental health issues and emerged from the program with a strong sense of self and self-worth. A large part of the credit for his recovery goes to his therapist, Melissa. Melissa is incredibly good at connecting with teens. Her ability to meet my son where he was at and get him to open up and do the hard work necessary for recovery was truly impressive. She was also incredibly skillful at navigating family sessions, and the whole family emerged stronger after spending time working with her. Melissa sees what her clients need and advocates for them. She is able to change her approach when needed; this flexibility is absolutely essential when dealing with this population. I should also point out - Embark is very LGBT friendly and gender-affirming. With the state of the country as it is, if your teen is trans or gender non-conforming and in need of mental health support, please be sure to consider this component. They will feel welcomed and supported at Embark.

Thoughtful and experienced staff have been a huge help to our family. We've continued to work with our child's counselor after completing the program because of the strong connections made throughout the program sessions.

The decor and design of the place are very soothing and helpful to the clients but what was best was the therapist my child got. The therapist Shavonne Gray did a lot of very difficult work with both my child and the family, never giving up or giving in to sometimes conflicting dynamics in the family. The therapist went above and beyond to understand and hold space for my child. She curated difficult family sessions with skill and empathy. She also made intuitive and trained decisions in the best interests of my child and provided my child with coping mechanisms and life tools in a way that my child was able to understand and retain. I would highly recommend Embark Tysons Corner and this therapist to any client in difficult life circumstances.

Our family had a wonderful experience with Embark. Our son had fallen very low with anxiety, depression, ADHD and POTS. He went to a residential program for 12 weeks and next went to the Embark at Tyson's corner. It was the right choice. His therapist Donovan understand him and connected with him. The therapists were skilled and responsive. Our son made strong connections with the other kids in the program. The program includes frequent feedback which we found helpful. The parting ceremony was quite emotional with tears all around! The staff helped us connect with a new followup therapist. All in all we were quite happy with Embark and recommend it whole-heartedly.

An intensive outpatient program (IOP) is similar to a partial hospitalization program (PHP) but sessions are conducted in the evening to accommodate school and work commitments. Our IOP is a minimum of 12 hours per week – 3 hours a day, 4-6 days per week, in-person or virtual.
A partial hospitalization program (PHP), sometimes referred to as a "day hospital" or "day program," is a structured outpatient treatment program. Our PHP is a minimum of 20 hours per week – 5 hours a day, 5 days per week in-person.
Outpatient treatment programs offer many of the same services as inpatient treatment programs in a more loosely structured environment. The flexibility of outpatient mental health services provides the help your child needs locally, in your own community, allowing them the opportunity to live at home when they are not receiving treatment so they can have a more normal daily routine and continue to be with family or friends and attend school or work. We provide two in-clinic treatment options – a partial hospitalization program (PHP), sometimes referred to as a “day treatment program,” and an intensive outpatient program (IOP).
The primary distinction between inpatient and outpatient treatment programs is that your child would live at an inpatient treatment facility, whereas children in outpatient treatment programs continue living at home. However, the two options aren't mutually exclusive, and many children in need of treatment will transition from one to the other.
