Center for Integrated Family and Health Services

If you’re looking for support that actually gets what you’re going through, the Center for Integrated Family and Health Services in Covina, California, might be exactly what you need. Their Sober Solutions program is packed with substance abuse and mental health services that don’t feel cookie cutter. You have access to individual therapy, group work, family counseling, relapse prevention and codependency treatment. They even have Seeking Safety, which is especially helpful if you’re healing with trauma. They blend cognitive behavioral therapy with 12 Step principles, motivational interviewing and psychological assessments that treat the whole version of you and not just the part that struggles with addiction. And if you’re involved with the court system their programming meets all those legal requirements too.

Support for Teens, Families and Everyone in Between

What really makes them stand out is how inclusive and far-reaching their services are. Teens can get help for chemical dependency plus support for anger issues and life skills. They service transitional age youths and offer trauma-informed care of LGBTQ+ folks and survivors of domestic violence or sexual abuse. Some people come through DCFS or probation while others just need a second chance. But everyone is treated with compassion and care. One person even said this place changed their life, and if you’ve ever been in survival mode you’ll know that kind of feedback speaks volumes.

Therapy That Meets You Where You Are

The center runs counseling sessions in-office or in local schools or in-home when needed. Plus they offer parenting classes, anger management groups, domestic violence support and health screenings through their wellness partnership with Azusa Pacific University. And being in Covina you’re just a few steps away from places like Covina Park and cozy cafes that could easily become your new safe spots.
