Our adult treatment program focuses on helping patients build healthy relationships, facilitating personal growth and independence, and learning coping skills to deal with problems that have interfered with functioning in the home, at work and/or in a school environment.

For adolescents, ages 12-17, we provide a comprehensive, long-term treatment program to re-establish healthy behavior while developing a discharge plan that can lead to a successful transition back into the family, home, school and community.

We offer partial hospitalization programs for the treatment of mental health, substance use and dual diagnosis issues. Our programs can bridge the gap between inpatient and outpatient services for youths, 12 to 17, and adults 18 and older, who are in need of an intense, structured program but do not require 24-hour care.

The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) has been developed to complement the existing Residential and Partial Hospitalization programs. La Amistad offers a Substance Abuse IOP and a Mental Health IOP. The IOP provides a higher level of structure and support than traditional outpatient care, so participants may successfully meet clinical needs at a treatment level that minimizes the disruption of daily routines and responsibilities.
