Addiction and Mental Health Treatment in Woodland Hills. Designed for what comes after “I’ve tried everything”.

Many programs either focus only on mental health or only on substance use — or they collapse both into a single blended "dual diagnosis" track. Both approaches can miss the mark.

At Elevated Healing, clients are placed into a primary treatment track — Mental Health or Substance Use Disorder — based on their presenting clinical need. Care is led by specialists in that discipline from day one.

When co-occurring conditions are present, our teams coordinate care across tracks to ensure the full clinical picture is addressed — without diluting focus, blurring accountability, or defaulting to a one-size-fits-all integrated program. Learn more about our care model.

You may benefit from coordinated care across Mental Health and SUD tracks if you're experiencing:

• Depression, anxiety, trauma symptoms, or mood instability alongside substance use
• Mental health symptoms that worsen with alcohol or drug use
• Substance use that increases when stress or mood symptoms flare
• Past treatment that addressed only one issue and didn't fully help
• Uncertainty about which condition is primary for you

We offer consultations to assess your needs and recommend the appropriate primary track, with coordinated support if co-occurring concerns are present. Explore our co-occurring care approach, or call (747) 888-3000 to speak with our team.

The terms are often used interchangeably to describe the presence of both a mental health condition and a substance use disorder.

At Elevated Healing, what matters most isn't the label — it's how treatment is structured. We don't use a blended one-track approach. Instead, clients receive care through a primary Mental Health or SUD track, with intentional coordination when both conditions are present. This ensures each condition is treated with the appropriate clinical depth and leadership.

Many patients come to us after previous treatment attempts have failed. This is actually very common — and it doesn't mean you're "broken" or "untreatable." It often means the previous approach was compartmentalized (treating one condition while missing the other), or the specific treatment strategies used weren't right for your biology and circumstances.

Our coordinated approach addresses root causes that previous providers may have missed. We specialize in complex cases where standard treatment hasn't worked.

This varies based on your specific situation, symptom severity, and treatment needs. Some patients see significant improvement in 8–12 weeks; others benefit from longer treatment. We focus on sustained recovery, not quick fixes.

Your initial consultation and assessment helps us develop a realistic timeline specific to your situation. We'll be transparent about realistic expectations and adjust your treatment plan as you progress.

We're in-network with most major commercial plans and accept Medicare, with many PPO plans accepted as well. Coverage for behavioral health and substance use treatment is protected under federal mental health parity law, though specific benefits vary by plan.

The fastest way to know your benefits is a free, confidential verification — we'll check your coverage, explain any out-of-pocket costs up front, and answer questions before you commit. Start with our insurance verification page or our admissions team. You can also review your rights under the federal Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act.

We offer a full step-down continuum so care can flex with your progress:

• Partial Hospitalization (PHP) — the most structured outpatient level, with multiple hours of programming on most weekdays.
• Intensive Outpatient (IOP) — several sessions per week, designed to fit around work, school, or family.
• Outpatient — flexible, lower-frequency care for ongoing stability and maintenance.

Choosing the right level is a clinical decision based on symptom severity, safety, and support at home. The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) criteria guide these placements; you can also explore federal treatment resources at FindTreatment.gov or the SAMHSA National Helpline.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared therapy that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. It's most often used for depression that hasn't responded adequately to medication, and it doesn't require anesthesia or sedation.

Whether TMS is appropriate depends on your diagnosis, history, and prior treatment response — which is why it starts with a psychiatric evaluation. Learn about our TMS program, or read the National Institute of Mental Health overview of brain stimulation therapies.

Both are evidence-informed therapies that use guided eye movements to help the brain reprocess traumatic memories, and both can reduce the intensity of trauma symptoms without requiring you to talk through every detail.

The main difference is structure and pace: EMDR follows an eight-phase protocol and is typically delivered over a series of sessions, while Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) uses a more directive, often briefer format. The right fit depends on your history and goals. For background on EMDR, see the EMDR International Association.

Yes. Your privacy is protected by federal law. The HIPAA Privacy Rule governs how your health information is used and disclosed, and substance use treatment records carry additional protection under 42 CFR Part 2, which generally requires your consent before records can be shared.

We'll walk you through exactly what's protected and what you're consenting to during admissions — so you can ask questions and feel informed before treatment begins.
