Treatment Methods Embark at Atlanta uses several evidence-based and holistic methods to treat adolescents and young adults seeking help with mental health and addiction or behavioral disorders. Personalized treatment plans are created to meet the individual and specific needs of patients and their families. Treatment plans may consist of therapy methods such as dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), attachment theory, experiential therapies, and SMART Recovery addiction treatment. These methods are used to treat a variety of mental illnesses and disorders, including anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), borderline personality disorder (BPD), bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), trauma, and addiction. The experienced and knowledgeable staff at Embark can also address social isolation or bullying, gaming or internet addictions, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), reactive attachment disorder (RAD), and self-harm or suicidal ideation. Partial Hospitalization Program Embark at Atlanta’s partial hospitalization program (PHP), also known as their therapeutic day program, is their most intensive level of care. The therapeutic day program services patients that are stepping down a level of care after completing a residential treatment program, or looking for a level of care that is more intensive than their other outpatient programs provide. Day treatment typically consists of 27-30 hours of treatment attended over 5 days per week while allowing patients to continue to live at home. Along with 1-on-1, group, and family counseling services, the educational services at Embark allow students to continue their academic work and receive credits that can be transferred back to their school. Intensive Outpatient Program Their intensive outpatient program (IOP) allows participants to continue with their individualized treatment plans and attend group and individual therapy sessions while requiring less of a time commitment. Intensive outpatient is group-focused and involves attending sessions 3-4 days per week for 3 hours per day. In addition to group sessions, patients also continue with their individual therapies and family counseling services. The intensive outpatient program (IOP) takes place in the evenings in order to accommodate school and work schedules, allowing youths and their families to receive treatment while still attending to their every-day responsibilities. When patients are ready for a less intensive level of care, Embark’s continuum of care allows for outpatient 1-on-1 therapy to continue on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, as well as offering virtual or in-home counseling services for individuals and their families.

A Truly Exceptional Experience at Embark Behavioral Health. From the first phone call to our first moments in the clinic. Embark Behavioral Health has gone above and beyond in every possible way. The heart of our positive experience began with Ms. Chavell, the Enrollment Director. Chavell is nothing short of extraordinary. Her compassion, clarity, and dedication to families is unmatched. She made a difficult and emotional process feel comforting, hopeful, and seamless. You can tell she truly cares and wants the best for each and every family she supports as she went through any possible length to get us the assistance we didn’t even know we needed. From emails, to phone calls, and lots of questions— she was patient, informative and transparent which showcased the type of people trusted to work with our children. We were also incredibly touched by the warmth and professionalism of Ms. Venus at the front desk, who greets every person who walks through the doors with genuine kindness and a smile that makes you feel like family. You could tell by her conversations with the clients and families that there was intention in the interactions, and so much love and genuine support for the clients. Not only that but the therapists were nothing short of phenomenal—deeply attuned, engaging, and truly invested in helping each client grow and heal. Which you could tell by watching them interact as I was taken on a tour through out the clinic. Everyone stopped to introduce themselves and made sure they welcomed and told my son they were happy to see him which they didn’t know, but for him that meant a lot. Embark is more than a program—it’s a place filled with people who care deeply and show up every day to make a difference. We are beyond grateful for this team and the peace of mind they’ve given our family when it comes to finding proper treatment. Highly recommend to anyone looking for meaningful, compassionate support for their loved one.

Molly Hamilton

Embark has been a great and safe place for our daughter to learn vital skills to help her manage her stress, anxiety and fear. Her treatment has been personalized and the staff has been so patient with her in both good and bad days. I would highly recommend Embark Buckhead to families who have struggling teens or young adults.
