About Alvarado Parkway Institute Behavioral Health System Outpatient Services

Alvarado Parkway Institute Behavioral Health System is a network of treatment centers for addiction and mental health. This location in El Cajon, California is one of their outpatient treatment centers. They have inpatient treatment at their location in La Mesa but this clinic offers intensive outpatient (IOP) and partial hospitalization (PHP) programs.

The difference between those two is the number of hours of treatment you have each week. They’re both outpatient programs so you’ll be living at home and coming to the treatment center for your sessions. They’re structured programs and the PHP is every weekday for most of the day while the IOP is three days a week for three hours at a time.

They have a morning IOP or an afternoon IOP at this location and their La Mesa location as an evening IOP too. Where you are in your recovery and how high risk you are for relapse will determine which of these program levels is the best fit for you.

This clinic treats adults who are 18 or older. Your program will include a combination of group therapy and individual therapy using evidence-based techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Along with addiction counseling, you’ll work on other skills and strategies that will help with your sobriety like stress management. They’ll help you plan your recovery and develop relapse-prevention strategies. They have vocational counseling too to help you land on your feet with a new job.

Clients seem to really appreciate their experiences at this treatment center. They say that the staff is caring and genuine and that the sessions are helpful and informative.
