How We Help
Georgia Mental Health Programs
Our outpatient programs are designed to support individuals across the state of Georgia, including those in rural areas, through both in-person and virtual Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP). By offering a wide range of treatment options, we aim to make mental health care accessible to everyone, regardless of their location or circumstances. We are committed to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and ensuring that no one feels alone in their journey toward healing and recovery.
Thus, New View Wellness provides a variety of outpatient mental health programs tailored to meet the diverse needs of our clients. Our programs are designed to offer flexibility, allowing individuals to receive the care they need while maintaining their daily responsibilities.

Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any other mental health condition, our programs provide the structure and support necessary for meaningful recovery.
We Meet You Where You're At
Levels of Care We Offer
Each of our mental health treatment programs is designed to provide comprehensive care, addressing the emotional, psychological, and social aspects of mental health. By offering multiple levels of care, we can help clients find the right program for their unique needs, ensuring that they receive the support necessary to achieve lasting recovery.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) provides a structured, intensive level of care for individuals who require significant support to manage their mental health but do not need 24-hour supervision.
This program is ideal for those who may have completed an inpatient program and are transitioning back into daily life or for individuals whose mental health conditions are severe enough to need comprehensive treatment but still allow them to maintain some degree of independence. PHP at New View Wellness involves a combination of individual therapy, group therapy, and medication management, all tailored to each client’s unique needs.
Participants in our PHP spend several hours a day, typically five to six days a week, in therapeutic sessions that focus on building coping skills, addressing underlying issues, and promoting emotional regulation. The program is designed to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can deeply engage with their treatment while still being able to return to the comfort of their own homes in the evenings.
This balance allows individuals to apply the skills they are learning in real-world settings, with the reassurance that they will return to a structured environment the next day to continue their progress.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a unique blend of structured, therapeutic care while allowing clients the flexibility to maintain their daily responsibilities, such as work, school, or family commitments. This program is particularly beneficial for individuals who need a strong support system to manage their mental health challenges but do not require the full-time care provided by more intensive programs like PHP or inpatient treatment. IOP at New View Wellness is designed to provide comprehensive treatment through a combination of individual therapy, group sessions, and educational workshops, all aimed at helping clients develop the skills they need to achieve and maintain mental wellness.
One of the key advantages of our IOP is its flexibility. Clients typically participate in the program three to five days a week, with sessions scheduled during the day or evening to accommodate various lifestyles.
This allows individuals to engage in therapy without disrupting their daily lives, making it easier to integrate the coping strategies and insights gained in treatment into their everyday routines. Additionally, recognizing the diverse needs of our clients across Georgia, New View Wellness offers IOP both in-person and virtually. This virtual option ensures that even those living in remote or underserved areas can access high-quality mental health care without the need to travel long distances.
Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Our Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program is designed for individuals who have made significant progress in their mental health journey and are ready to step down to a less intensive level of care. This program is ideal for those who have completed more rigorous treatment, such as PHP or IOP, and are seeking ongoing support to solidify their progress and prevent relapse.
The Virtual IOP at New View Wellness offers a flexible schedule, allowing clients to attend therapy sessions and counseling at a pace that fits their current life circumstances from the convenience of their own homes. This flexibility makes it possible for clients to continue working, attending school, or fulfilling other personal responsibilities while still receiving the therapeutic support they need.

Signs + Symptoms of Mental Illness
Do I Need Mental Health Treatment?
Thinking about getting treatment for mental health can be confusing and even scary. A person may not be certain they can benefit from attending formal treatment or they may try to minimize their condition out of embarrassment or being unsure of the seriousness of their mental illness. Someone wanting to understand if they qualify for getting treatment for a mental illness can look for certain signs and symptoms that indicate a real problem exists.
These signs include:
- Feeling anxious or having panic attacks
- Feeling depressed and unable to cheer up
- Swinging back and forth between emotions
- Difficulty thinking or making decisions
- Dramatic mood swings
- Pervasive sense of sadness or despair
- Isolating from others
- Hiding symptoms of mental illness from others
- Eating too much or too little
- Changes in weight
- Difficulty sleeping or sleeping too much
- Finding it hard to work, go to school, or participate in extracurricular activities
- Hallucinations
- Using alcohol or drugs to ease symptoms such as anxiety, depression, moodiness, or flashbacks
- Medical symptoms with no explanation, including nausea, gastrointestinal distress, headaches, and body aches
Any extreme change in attitude or behavior may be a warning sign of a mental health disorder. Also, physical changes in areas such as energy level, weight, and overall appearance may also indicate the onset of mental illness.
Am I a Good Fit For New View Wellness?
The right program for outpatient mental health in Atlanta can change a person’s life in measurable ways. It allows people to receive treatment while living at home and maintaining many of their daily activities, such as work, school, or family responsibilities. If you are wondering if outpatient care is right for you, here are some signs that you might be a good fit for our programs:
- Stability: If your mental health condition is relatively stable, meaning that you’re not experiencing severe symptoms that might require intensive supervision or hospitalization.
- Support: If you have a supportive environment at home and can attend regular appointments. The support of family and friends can play a crucial role in recovery.
- Motivation: You’re motivated to get better and are willing to participate in your treatment plan actively. Outpatient treatment requires regular attendance at therapy sessions or other appointments, adherence to medication regimens (if prescribed), and a commitment to working on strategies and exercises outside of therapy.
- No Immediate Risk: You are not an immediate risk to yourself or others. If you’re experiencing suicidal thoughts, have a plan for suicide, or are exhibiting violent behavior, more intensive inpatient treatment might be necessary.

How We Help Break The Stigma of Mental Health Disorders
Numerous barriers can prevent individuals from seeking mental health treatment. Too often, people feel afraid to open up and talk about having poor mental health. Others don’t know where to turn for help or have difficulty paying for it. A report from Mental Health America showed some alarming statistics:
- 20.78% of adults in the U.S. have a mental illness. This constitutes 50 million Americans.
- Over half of these adults do not get any kind of treatment.
- 42% of adults with AMI (any mental illness) said they did not seek treatment because they could not afford it.
- 50% of youth who have major depression do not get the treatment they need.
Common reasons someone may hesitate to reach out for the help they deserve include:
- Stigma and Discrimination: Stigma associated with mental health issues can be a significant barrier to seeking help. Individuals may fear being judged, rejected, or discriminated against by family, friends, employers, or the community.
- Lack of Awareness: Some people may not realize they have a mental health issue or may not understand the signs and symptoms of mental illnesses. They may not know that effective treatments exist, or they may not know where to go for help.
- Cultural Barriers: In some cultures, mental health issues may be stigmatized or misunderstood. Language barriers can also make it difficult for non-English speakers to access services.
- Fear and Mistrust: Some people fear the treatments themselves (e.g., medication side effects), have concerns about confidentiality or mistrust the medical system due to past negative experiences.
To overcome these barriers, increased education about mental health, reducing stigma, improving access to services, and ensuring coverage of mental health care by insurance can be instrumental. It’s also important for healthcare providers to build trust and provide culturally sensitive care.
Breaking the stigma around mental health is one of our core missions at New View Wellness. We actively work to educate the community about the realities of mental health disorders and the importance of seeking help. By normalizing conversations around mental health and providing accessible treatment options, we aim to create a world where everyone feels empowered to take charge of their mental well-being.

Finding Mental Health Treatment in Georgia
If you are new to getting help for a mental health disorder or dissatisfied with the previous treatment you received, we recommend you get informed before making a decision. Finding the best mental health facilities in Georgia starts with doing research. Any facility you consider should have the proper accreditation or certifications required by the state of Georgia or that otherwise ensure the treatment center is of the highest quality.
Some of the organizations with which a facility should be accredited include:
Even if a facility has the licenses required by law, its clinicians should also be licensed with the proper credentials to provide treatment in the state of Georgia. A facility operating above the law should be happy to confirm that its mental health counselors and medical staff are all licensed and able to provide care for people with mental illnesses.
Finally, look online for reviews of the facility to get a fuller picture of how previous clients feel about their time spent there. A person can also ask people they know if they can recommend any specific treatment facilities that provide quality care for mental health disorders. These types of word-of-mouth and first-person reviews can help people make a decision about where to go for treatment.
If you or a loved one is seeking mental health treatment in Georgia, New View Wellness is here to help. Our flexible outpatient programs are designed to meet the needs of individuals from all walks of life, offering a pathway to healing that is both comprehensive and accessible. We invite you to reach out to us to learn more about our programs and how we can support you on your journey to recovery.
Questions to Ask
Part of finding the best mental health facilities in Georgia means asking questions about each facility a person contacts. Admissions staff members should be happy to answer questions and provide the information a person needs to make the right choice for them. Questions to ask include:
- Do you take my insurance and can you tell me what my policy covers?
- Do you accept private pay and how does that work?
- What amenities do you offer?
- Can I take a tour of your facility or see photos or videos of it online?
- Do you make recommendations for aftercare treatment?
- What treatment professionals are on staff?
- What types of therapies do you offer?
- Based on my condition, do you offer the specialized treatment I require?
Types of Mental Health Treatment We Provide
If you are looking for quality mental health treatment facilities in Atlanta, it’s important to find the provider whose services align most closely with your needs and expectations.
At New View Wellness, all clients follow customized treatment plans. Depending on what’s best for each person, their care may include services such as the following:
- Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT): ACT sessions can help people learn to be present in the moment and acknowledge difficult aspects of life without feeling the need to hide from them or react in a self-defeating manner.
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT): DBT is focused on helping people increase their abilities in four areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation.
- Individual counseling: Individual sessions are one-on-one conversations between a client and a treatment provider. These confidential, judgement-free sessions are ideal places for clients to address issues that they may be hesitant to discuss in a group environment.
- Family therapy: Family sessions can provide essential information to close friends and family members of people who are receiving care. Family programming can also help clients and their loved ones learn how to build healthier relationships and support each other more effectively.
- Psychiatric services and medication management: Psychiatric care, which may include prescription medications, can be a valuable component of treatment for people who have developed certain mental health conditions.
