About Don Allen ParentCare Family Recovery Center
Don Allen ParentCare Family Recovery Center, a Vista Hill program in La Mesa, provides outpatient addiction treatment for pregnant and parenting women in East San Diego County.
The center, I've found, serves chemically dependent women and their families, including those facing co-occurring psychiatric conditions, domestic violence, homelessness risk and child welfare concerns.
This family centered program treats mothers and children together, keeping healthy births and child well-being at the heart of maternal recovery.
Family Centered Recovery for Pregnant and Parenting Women
ParentCare specializes in women focused, family centered care for pregnant women and mothers parenting children under 18.
Operating since 1989, the program integrates childcare directly into treatment, with on-site infant and preschool day care so mothers can fully engage in recovery.
Treatment includes individual and group counseling, psychoeducation, parenting skills, and living-skills support delivered in a warm, supportive setting.
I've found the program's family orientation addresses underlying challenges alongside substance use, and Vista Hill reports that 100% of babies born to ParentCare mothers were free of illicit substances at birth.
One reviewer called it "a safe, and loving place to recover."
On-Site Psychiatric and Dual Diagnosis Support with Sliding Scale Fees
For clients with co-occurring mental health needs, ParentCare offers on-site psychiatric services and care.
The program also incorporates fitness classes, parenting education and ongoing alumni participation during and after graduation to sustain long-term recovery.
ParentCare's East Region site is located on Williams Avenue in La Mesa, serving East San Diego County with in-person outpatient care Monday through Friday, with limited transportation available for enrolled clients.
Fees are offered on a sliding scale, and the center accepts Medi-Cal and other insurance plans.
Amenities
Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.
Recreational therapy uniquely combines therapeutic interventions with an activity, like horse-riding, hiking, wilderness therapy, basketball, tennis, or a full workout. Benefits of recreational therapy include providing a healthy way to work through the emotions of recovery, learning to build and maintain relationships, improving communication skills, and building self-esteem.
Transportation services are designed to ensure your addiction treatment begins and ends successfully by offering free transportation to the rehab facility, to and from your appointments during rehab, and back home upon program completion.
Addiction treatment programs provide an opportunity to get your life back on track with access to school classes or college courses. Whether you want to finish your GED or go back to school to learn a new trade, facilities often enlist tutors and teachers who are certified or licensed by the state to oversee self-study or distance-learning education.
When paired with cognitive-behavioral therapy, exercise can be an effective tool for overcoming addiction. Drug rehabs with a gym offer clients healthy ways to increase energy levels, balance the body’s stress hormone levels, and aid in the brain’s healing process.
