About Pacific Clinics – El Camino – Santa Fe Springs
Pacific Clinics is a broad network of behavioral health treatment centers, and their El Camino clinic is in Santa Fe Springs, California. They have behavioral health care here for clients of all ages. That means they treat substance abuse as well as mental health conditions and domestic violence issues and more.
When you come here for drug and alcohol addiction, they’ll do an assessment and put together an individualized treatment plan for you. That typically includes individual counseling along with group and family therapy. They’ll also guide you in meditation and mindfulness techniques and teach you relapse prevention strategies. They’ll help you understand addiction and how it operates within your body and your brain, and then guide you in healing and developing new skills to end the cycle of addiction.
Keep in mind that this particular location is an outpatient clinic, but the Pacifica network has residential and inpatient treatment centers too. So, regardless of where you are in your recovery journey, they can get you the level of care you need but in any case this clinic is a good starting point.
On top of this, they can help with co-occurring mental health conditions. They have other services like connecting you with housing and other resources that can help you build a stable independent life in addiction that keeps you away from the environments where you used to use drugs or alcohol.
The bad news is that there’s a lot of negative feedback from clients about this clinic. Most of the criticism is about the administrative processes. Clients say they don’t get calls back when they try to get in touch with the office, and that there are long wait times for appointments and for administrative tasks. While some clients say that they’ve gotten great care here, others say that there’s a high turnover among therapists, so their treatment doesn’t progress like it should because they have to keep switching therapists.
