About Downtown LA VA Clinic
The Los Angeles VA Clinic offers an outpatient substance use treatment program for Veterans and their families. It's based in Los Angeles, California.
This facility offers specialized clinics for substance use, including intensive outpatient (IOP) and opioid treatment programs alongside integrated mental health services. Their mission is to deliver integrated care that addresses addiction alongside co-occurring health issues like PTSD and homelessness.
Addiction Treatment Programs
Treatment often begins with an assessment to determine the most appropriate level of care within their outpatient substance use disorders clinic. Veterans can access a range of programs that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for severe symptoms.
Clients engage in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-focused care and motivational interviewing. The clinic supports diverse recovery paths by offering both abstinence-based and harm-reduction tracks, along with integrated peer support and case management for dual diagnoses.
