About California Pacific Medical Center Behavioral Health
California Pacific Medical Center Behavioral Health is a hospital-affiliated program within the Sutter Health and CPMC network in San Francisco.
It serves adults and seniors managing substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions through psychiatric stabilization and integrated behavioral health care.
As part of a major regional medical center the program brings multidisciplinary teams together to support recovery in a clinical, hospital-based setting.
Dual-Diagnosis Treatment
The program places a strong emphasis on dual-diagnosis care treating substance use and mental health conditions together rather than in isolation.
Within a hospital-affiliated environment patients can access inpatient psychiatric stabilization alongside integrated behavioral health treatment.
Care commonly draws on approaches like CBT and DBT delivered through individual psychotherapy and group therapy.
Treatment may also include medication management and peer support helping patients address both the symptoms and the underlying roots of co-occurring conditions.
Behavioral Health Services
Beyond inpatient care the broader CPMC behavioral health system references outpatient services and expanding partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient offerings.
Programming is inclusive of adults, seniors, young adults and LGBTQ patients, with activity therapy and telemedicine also part of the wider continuum.
