Community West offers two distinct programs designed to meet the needs of young people struggling with mental health challenges.

Founded by three doctorate-level clinicians, our model emphasizes tailored treatment planning to each client’s unique needs, a high frequency of one-on-one therapy, and a level of personalization that allows treatment to adapt as each client progresses.

👥 Young Adult Treatment (Ages 18–29ish): In addition to clinical stabilization, treatment focuses on supporting clients as they move toward greater independence, adult roles, personal goals, and a more purposeful, self-directed life—while continuing to strengthen connection within the family system. We are opening a transitional living in late spring! Call to learn more!

👥 Adolescent Treatment (Ages 13–17) Community West’s adolescent program serves clients ages 13–17, with consideration for a 12-year-old when clinically appropriate. Treatment at this developmental stage considers the full context of each client’s life, including family, school, and social functioning, with active parent involvement as a central part of care.

LEVELS OF CARE:

🏠 SUPPORTIVE LIVING

Uniquely designed for young adults with room for 7 clients. A non-clinical setting that assists young adults in building routines, accountability, healthy relationships, and independent living skills.

☀️ PHP
