Empowering Lives with Comprehensive Mental Health & Substance Abuse Support in Maryland

Are you or a loved one facing challenges with mental health, substance abuse, or daily life management? At A Village Wellness Center (AVWC), we offer a range of specialized programs designed to meet your unique needs:

Our Supportive Programs

Skill-building & Community Integration (PRP)

Learn practical, everyday skills to manage your mental health and become an active part of your community with our PRP. We’ll help you navigate daily challenges, from managing a household to building relationships. Our services work alongside traditional therapy, real-world support to enhance your overall treatment plan.

Empowerment Example: John, 35, diagnosed with major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder, learned to manage his emotions, keep a steady job, and make friends through these skill building and supportive interventions.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Get effective, consistent support for addiction without putting your life on hold. This program offers frequent, structured sessions that work around your job and family commitments.

Empowerment Example: Sarah, 42, a working mother struggling with alcohol addiction, received regular, intensive help while still caring for her family and maintaining her career through virtual IOP group and individual sessions.

Outpatient Program (OP)

Receive ongoing support for substance abuse that fits into your daily life. This flexible program offers regular check-ins and guidance as you apply recovery skills in real-world situations.

Empowerment Example: Mike, 19, recovering from opioid addiction, received ongoing counseling and learned strategies to avoid relapse as he returned to full-time work through OP.

This place is fantastic and has greatly helped me learn new coping skills, Shout out to miss Nichole from the PRP therapy office and miss Christina Young who is a great therapist. This place is very safe and I feel great opening up to them just as I would very close friends and family members.Plus these people treat you as family as well.

This experience have been so wonderful for me. Ms.Shakeerah is the best, she called me after I was so low from getting my 100th denial letter talked me through my lowest point and even sent me jobs to apply to! Ms.Neisha has poured so much love into me and talked me through believing in myself. I love this group and the people here. It had been such an uplifting journey.

I am new to a Village Wellness Center but so far it has really helped me. It helps me keep myself accountable and I can hear many other peoples perspectives on addiction and life struggles. I look forward to groups sessions and the counselors are really engaged and dedicated to helping us grow into being better versions of ourselves. I am really looking forward to my journey with them and would definitely recommend them to anybody struggling and looking for support with recovery.

I just joined the group not to long ago and I jumped right in and started sharing because I felt so comfortable and I enjoy listening to everyone and they give good feedback and they keep my attention

A Village Wellness was and still is an amazing program. Nothing but encouragement from the directors and even the group. I have never had a group of strangers help out like they do and I love all the wisdom that’s always poured into me from the older ladies and gentlemen.
