Integrating with Higher Levels of Care

Treatment here is on an outpatient basis, though Kaiser Permanente does offer inpatient psychiatric and behavioral treatment for children, adolescents, and adults in other locations. If inpatient treatment is finished or not necessary then outpatient support can provide support without the need for hospitalization.

Flexibility with 12 Hours of Care

The mental health and wellness offices and outpatient treatment programming here is open from 7am to 7pm on Monday to Thursday and 7am to 5:30pm on Fridays. These expanded hours outside of 9 to 5 make treatment accessible for people with busy or structured schedules. There are family and individual treatment programs available and most therapy action plans include group therapy and activities.

Detoxification is offered to adults aged 18 and older who are in need of supervised medical detox. Many programs, medications and services may be referred to the Sierra Ave location which has emergency and inpatient services available.
