About San Ysidro Health Youth Enhancement Services

San Diego, California, is known for its gorgeous beaches and beautiful weather. It’s also the home of San Ysidro Health’s Youth Enhancement Services (YES) program. YES provides outpatient behavioral health services to children and teens, including substance use treatment.

I like that interpreters are available for multiple languages if scheduled in advance. San Ysidro Health accepts Medi Cal, Medicare and some private plans. They also have a sliding fee scale for those without health coverage.

Outpatient Behavioral Health Services for Youth

The YES program provides substance use and mental health evaluations along with crisis support. Services may be delivered in the clinic or through school based treatment, and transportation is available.

The treatments the staff can provide include individual, group and family counseling. Withdrawal symptoms and cravings are often what makes it difficult to maintain sobriety. Available for youth ages 12 and older, San Ysidro Health also provides medication assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid and alcohol misuse to help prevent relapse from occurring.

I also noticed that in addition to these services, the San Diego clinic can also give clients access to diagnostic services such as lab testing. This service can be helpful for youth given their higher risk for infectious diseases such as HIV, Hep C and STDs.

Case Management Services for Families

For youth to be healthy, their families need to be stable and secure. The San Ysidro Health staff has case managers that can connect families to a wide variety of resources, such as housing, employment support, and community resources. Teens in the program can also be linked to support groups and peer specialists to help them practice their new skills to maintain long term recovery.

Addiction Treatment Programs

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.

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.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

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.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

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.
