Mental Health Center

About Mental Health Center – Los Angeles, California

Located in Los Angeles, California, in the Cedars-Sinai Medical Towers, the Mental Health Center offers addiction treatment, mental health treatment and ketamine therapy. They treat children, adolescents and adults and have a senior psychiatry program.

The center has outpatient medication assisted treatment (MAT) which is the first step for many clients. After detoxification, you’ll have a psychiatric evaluation to determine if you have a dual diagnosis. This is important because most substance use is an attempt to self medicate other mental health disorders. Once you have a proper diagnosis, you can get the help and medications that will work best for you.

Their individual therapy helps you discover your past patterns. Gaining insight allows you to work through your past for a more meaningful present and future. They also have trauma informed therapy to help you build better coping skills so you can stop self medicating.

Some of their therapies include the trauma resilience model (TRM), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT). If you’ve had depression refractory to treatment, they also offer ketamine therapy.

Ketamine treatment involves the administration of the drug while a psychiatrist, nurse, or therapist sits with you. You’ll set an intention for the session which lasts over an hour. Expect to be in the office for two hours. After your ketamine experience, the therapist helps you integrate your insights into your life moving forward.

Former clients offer praise, noting that the doctors are good listeners, knowledgeable, compassionate and help with problem solving.
