Behavioral Health Services in Altadena

Sycamores provides a variety of services for mental health and substance use disorders. You’ll start with a range of assessments to identify what mental health and addiction struggles you have.

From there, they offer individual, group and family therapy for both adults and adolescents. The clinic also provides mental health medication and treatment for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders.

Support for Parents and Those with Complex Needs

One unique service I noted was the Parent Partner program, where caregivers are able to get peer support for parenting challenges. Sycamores also has a Full Service Partnership (FSP) program that can support parents or caregivers who have mental illness and/or addiction issues along with children five or younger.

If you have a MediCal managed care plan and struggle with substance use and mental health, the Enhanced Care Management program can connect you with a variety of services ranging from housing support to medical treatment. I appreiciate that the Care Manager helps you get the resources that meet your specific needs, and the program is free.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) LGBTQ Friendly Rehab Men's Rehab Women's Rehab Teen & Adolescent Program

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

When a person is struggling with addiction, their actions and emotions may not be rational. Cognitive behavioral therapy in California helps individuals understand better why they feel and act certain ways and how those emotions and actions can lead to substance abuse.

LGBTQ Friendly Rehab

The incidence of substance abuse and addiction is higher among the LBGTQ community. That’s why LBGTQ-friendly rehab in California is available, to offer specialized treatment that addresses the unique needs of individuals in this demographic.

Men's Rehab

Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.

Women's Rehab

Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.

Teen & Adolescent Program

Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the d...uration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program’s design.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health diso...rder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.
