MVBH lounge Amesbury MA | luxury mental health retreat MassachusettsThe MVBH difference

A luxury approach to outpatient mental health care

Most outpatient treatment feels clinical and rushed. MVBH is different. Our historic Mill 77 setting in Amesbury is designed to calm your nervous system while you do real, evidence-based work - CBT, DBT, trauma-focused therapy, and medication management.

It's not a spa, and it's not residential. It's intensive outpatient treatment delivered in a restorative, private setting - and because it's Full Day PHP / Half Day IOP, your benefits may apply; we verify yours up front. Explore our luxury mental health retreat approach.

Treatment terminology notice: At Merrimack Valley Behavioral Health, our day-based programs are referred to as Full Day Treatment and Half Day Treatment. In Massachusetts, insurance providers commonly refer to these levels of care as PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) and IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program). Any reference to PHP or IOP on this site refers to our Full Day Treatment or Half Day Treatment programs.
Detox scope: MVBH does not provide detox onsite. If detox may be needed before outpatient treatment, call our team. We can help identify an appropriate outside detox provider, but cannot guarantee placement, acceptance, transportation, medical clearance, or suitability.
If you are in crisis or having thoughts of suicide: call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 911. MVBH is not an emergency service.
