About Shasta County Mental Health Adult Services
Shasta County Mental Health Adult Services is a county-run behavioral health and substance use screening program in Redding, California, offering outpatient mental health care, crisis services and referrals for adults.
Located on Breslauer Way, the program provides counseling, medication support, case management and crisis residential care for adults with persistent or severe mental illness.
I've found its recovery-oriented, strength-based model is delivered by specialized teams focused on stability and long-term wellness.
Behavioral Health Programs and Levels of Care
Adults can access walk-in outpatient services during business hours, including assessment, evaluation, individual and group counseling, medication management, social rehabilitation and crisis or urgent care.
Substance use screenings and referrals to drug and alcohol rehab are provided when co-occurring needs are identified.
For those in psychiatric crisis, an on-site Crisis Residential and Recovery Center offers short-term voluntary respite for up to 30 days.
Daily groups, I've learned, focus on coping skills, medication treatment, daily living activities and peer support, using approaches such as CBT, DBT and integrated dual-disorder treatment.

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.
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.
Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.
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
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.
Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the duration 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.
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.
