About Our Residential Mental Health Facilities and Programs
Bridges to Recovery residential mental health facilities are designed for people suffering from psychiatric disorders who seek in-depth psychotherapy and an alternative to a hospital environment for their care.
We specialize in the treatment of psychiatric and emotional issues using a synergistic, holistic model. Our mental health programs are dedicated to empowering each person to become self-aware, self-monitoring, and able to provide for their own sense of emotional control and eventual wholeness.
While we recognize that many individuals struggle with chemical dependency in addition to psychological problems, our treatment focus is on the underlying concerns. Our mental health programs are designed to provide therapeutic and psychosocial support for restoring the health of our clients. Treatment at Bridges to Recovery is holistic, individualized, and nurturing.
In our Recovery Treatment Centers, we offer integrated treatment programs that prepare each client to move forward to a new, productive phase of their life. Our commitment is to assist our clients in developing carefully constructed "road maps" for healthier and more productive lives. Our clients leave our programs with a solid sense of their next goals and the resources to achieve them. Bridges to Recovery residential mental health facilities is licensed by the Department of Social Services in California.
Individualized Treatment
Our treatment programs are individualized to meet each person’s specific needs. Our clinical team provides a careful assessment of each client's needs and then collaborates with the client to set therapy goals and design appropriate therapy programs. Clinicians working with the clients consult with one another regularly to assess progress toward the goals, and to set up appropriate discharge plans.

Our Location
Located in the beautiful residential neighborhoods of Pacific Palisades, Bel Air and Santa Monica, California, Bridges to Recovery residential mental health facilities offer a very unique, warm and welcoming atmosphere. Our Primary Residential program provides a comfortable and safe alternative to inpatient psychiatric treatment.
History of Our Residential Mental Health Facilities
Bridges to Recovery was licensed in 2002 to bring the highest level of care to a residential treatment center for the healing of mental health disorders. We wanted to ensure that people could get the treatment they need in an environment they prefer. We wanted to create an alternative to hospitalization - a six-bed, licensed facility in the most luxurious surroundings to ensure comfortable and successful treatment.
Bridges to Recovery expanded in the fall of 2008, to an additional location to provide a residential treatment center for more clients. Both our residential mental health treatment facilities offer alternative treatment for psychiatric disorders, and psychological problems. We offer a different approach to drug abuse treatment, inpatient hospital mental health treatment, and various alcohol treatment centers.
