About La Cheim Behavioral Health Services
La Cheim Behavioral Health Services is a Community Mental Health Center in Oakland, California that offers services for adults like addiction treatment and mental health care.
The center provides short term intensive treatment for people who are in acute mental health crises, like those with serious mental illness and substance use needs.
La Cheim treats their clients in a welcoming environment that’s designed to help you feel supported, respected and empowered.
Day Treatment for Mental Health Crisis
I noticed that the team focuses on stabilizing people through structured day treatment. You'll begin with partial hospitalization and step down to intensive outpatient treatment as you progress.
They have programming in person or through telehealth on Zoom, or you can do a hybrid format that has some of each.
Treatment blends group therapy, weekly individual sessions and individual psychiatry with medication support.
They use trauma informed approaches like CBT, DBT, ACT and mindfulness to help you with the root causes of your addiction while teaching you coping tools.
Identity Affirming and Recovery Focused Groups
I like that La Cheim offers an inclusive curriculum. They have dedicated groups for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodiverse, young adult, men's, women's and non binary clients so there’s something for everyone.
The substance use programs here include relapse prevention and sobriety maintenance but also harm reduction and recovery peer support within a broader mental health model.
Addiction Treatment Programs
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.
An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.
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 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.
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.
Seniors face unique challenges that may contribute to substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders. Elderly rehab in California is designed to address these challenges to provide relevant and safe treatment for seniors.
Therapists often use rational emotive behavioral therapy in California to treat addiction. The ABC (activating event, beliefs, consequences) framework is used to help participants identify irrational beliefs and reframe their thinking in healthier ways.
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.
Levels of Care
When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.
When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.
Intervention services in California provide the support you need to encourage a loved one to make wise recovery decisions. Professionals will help you work with your loved one to develop an intervention plan and get him or her started on their recovery journey.
Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) are a type of outpatient treatment program that often utilize many of the same treatment methods used for inpatient care. The difference being that you only visit the drug rehab in California during treatment times, then you can return home.
