The Basics
Located in in the LA suburb of Downey, California, Self Help Los Angeles is a small behavioral health facility that provides individualized and personal counseling for a variety of issues. Founded in 2005, it offers outpatient-based counseling flexible enough to fit any schedule. While not an intensive addiction and dual diagnosis program, Self Help does offer life coaching and additional holistic and alternative methods to help clients get their lives back on track.
Treatment and Staff
Before beginning a program, all clients go through an initial intake and assessment process to help the staff determine their needs. Though on-site detox services are not available, those who need these services can get referrals as necessary. Each participant’s program may vary by their needs though treatment plans consist primarily of individual therapy with some evidence-based practices including CBT and DBT.
Still, the main focus of these programs is on offering life coaching and alternative counseling such as Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), hypnotherapy and energy healing methods. Basic dual diagnosis support for issues like depression and anxiety are available although clients in need of more intensive care may need to seek additional support. While 12-step participation is not always required, it may be recommended in some cases.
The staff at Self Help consists of LCSWs, life coaches, case managers and additional Master’s-level counselors.
Extras
Other services include two, five and seven-day intensive trainings for a range of issues related to self-limitation. Relationship counseling services are also available. Those who complete a therapy regimen can also work with staff to plan follow-ups or stepped down aftercare options.
In Summary
Overall, Self Help is, as its name suggests, an outpatient-based geared towards helping clients be more successful in their personal and private lives. Unlike some psychotherapy-based counseling facilities, Self Help relies more extensively on alternate and holistic methods such as NLP, hypnotherapy and energy healing. All treatment plans are flexible and individualized. Although it may not be a perfect fit for those suffering from extreme cases of addiction or mental illness, Self Help remains a helpful resource for clients in the area looking to take their lives to the next level.
