About San Fernando Valley Community Mental Health Center – Elderly
The San Fernando Valley Community Mental Health Center - Elderly provides mental health support to members of the Greater San Fernando Valley community in Van Nuys, California. The center offers services that are segmented by need and age, including ones specifically catered to the unique concerns of older adults. I like that the elderly programs provide substance abuse treatment and re-entry support. This Center is mainly a state funded program. Their patient care advocates can assist you with payment and insurance.
Client Engagement and Navigation Services (CENS)
Sometimes access to care is the biggest hurdle that people experience with substance abuse. The CENS program is funded by the LA County Department of Public Health and offers face to face services that help those in need find substance use disorder (SUD) programs. I consider this to be a bridge solution that helps connect people struggling with substance abuse with the appropriate centers or programs in the San Fernando Valley area that can help them.
Milestones
Milestones is a program that’s designed for the elderly, homeless, formerly incarcerated and people recovering from SUD and mental illness to build the necessary skills to live independently. I like that this includes providing help with financial assistance, finding permanent housing and managing mental health symptoms.
Addiction Treatment Programs
Adult Program
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.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.Senior Drug & Alcohol Rehab
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.Levels of Care

For those who are underinsured or uninsured, paying the total cost of a rehab program up front is not feasible....

You can choose a finance package that lets you start treatment immediately and pay for it later.
