Therapies & Programs at Discovery

At Discovery Mood’s center in Fairfax, you’ll find programs that truly fit your needs. From the moment you step through the doors, you will be seen as an individual and provided with the coping skills that work best for you. Once you’ve mastered them and have completed treatment, you’ll be ready to use what you’ve learned so that you can live a more fulfilling life.

Clinical Therapies

• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)

Holistic Therapies

Experiential activities are included in therapy, such as art or yoga, all of which support emotional regulation and awareness.

School Program

This program is offered to young patients, where an education liaison supervises and supports them through their schoolwork. The education liaison also collaborates with the patient’s therapist to ensure they have the right environment in place for learning, which will in turn help them reintegrate into their school after treatment.

Stars & Stripes Program
Customized to the needs of veterans, active-duty servicemembers, first responders and their families, the Stars & Stripes program offers specialized services alongside our evidence-based and holistic approach to mental health treatment. It’s led by a staff trained to understand military and first responder culture.

Family Support

Families are a big part of the healing process, which is why we offer weekly sessions during treatment. Once treatment is done, family members can access an alumni app and online support groups.
