Our Van Nuys Location
Outpatient Mental Health Treatment

Each of our mental health and addiction treatment programs offer individual therapy, group therapy with peers in the same age group, and individual counseling using evidence-based therapy modalities and clinical expertise. In addition to these services, our teen programs offer a range of tailored components designed to meet the unique needs of adolescents, including:

• Multi-family Therapy Groups: Our weekly multi-family groups provide rich psychoeducational and experiential learning to help your family heal as a whole. These groups are the backbone of our community-based treatment approach, as families can connect with other families also in the program.
• Monthly Family Therapy Sessions: Your teen’s therapist leads individual family therapy sessions every month. These sessions offer an intimate setting for your family to work through your teens’ condition and grow together as they make progress through our program.
• Weekly Family Updates: Each teen’s counselor schedules weekly phone calls with parents and other caregivers to discuss progress, and concerns, and field any questions throughout treatment.
• Teen-Focused Care: Our clinicians are trained to work with adolescents and their unique issues using specialized treatment modalities, including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, and art therapy, all while working through a family systems framework.
• Academic Support: As a primarily after-school program, your teen can continue taking classes while attending our program. To promote balance and support, an educational consultant works with you twice a week to help your teen with their schoolwork. Additionally, our team can coordinate with schools to advocate for home-hospital accommodations or other specialized academic plans.
