Ascend Healthcare – Culver City Outpatient

Ascend Healthcare provides mental health treatment specialized for adolescents ages 12-17, primarily through short-term residential programs in various locations throughout California. Their Culver City location provides comprehensive outpatient mental health and co-occurring disorder treatment through their day treatment (PHP) program.

The program features weekly family therapy, parenting with DBT classes, and parent process groups for families of clients. Additionally, clients and families may participate in multi-family therapy groups, client-only group therapy, educational support, case management, and psychiatry and medication management. Clients experiencing substance use disorder may also participate in 12-Step recovery programs. Their spacious facility features a kitchen, recreation areas and games, indoor and outdoor lounges, group therapy rooms, private therapy offices, and a classroom with computers for academic support.
