Residential Treatment

Elevations Behavioral Health provides a comprehensive residential program for the treatment of mental health disorders. Residential care provides a unique opportunity for individuals suffering from complex mental health disorders or dual diagnosis to obtain the highest degree of psychiatric care available in Los Angeles within a comfortable, intimate home setting.

Residential treatment is the appropriate level of care for individuals who have not been able to achieve symptomatic relief through outpatient psychiatric care. In a residential setting, clients enjoy the many benefits of a more intensive treatment environment, while receiving a respite from situations, people, or issues that are triggering. At Elevation Behavioral Health, the integrated approach to treating mental health disorders ensures that all aspects of the person are included in the customized treatment plan.
